    Biarritz were about as far from disinterested as it is possible to be. They simply weren't good enough.

    Ah now they were fairly interested for the first 37 minutes to be fair

    Tell Ngwenya he was disinterested after making two try-saving tackles.

    I don't think Heaslip has been one of the 5 best players in Europe tbqh. He hasn't been bad, but he hasn't been absolutely brilliant either. Don't know if he's even been Leinster's best player in Europe.


    I'd go for Fofana, I just think he's pure class although if Bonnaire won it, there couldn't be many complaints.

    I'd go for Sivivatu or Bonnaire but i wouldn't be surprised to see Wilkinson take it.

    I'd say he has been Leinster's best player in Europe, between him and Healy for sure

    Sivivatu or Fofana for me.

    If I was Gatland I would've been trying to figure out some way to convince the Aussies that Fofana qualified as a Lion, because having him outside Sexton with Davies / BOD / Tuilagi available as a second centre would have given Gatland licence to try about 400 different routes through the Aus defence.

    If we changed it to the European Lions, we could bring a backrow of Gorgodze-SOB-Parisse and put Parra inside Sexton as well.

    And another European, Dr. Heiter, could perform the operation. :eek:
