    Well I'm sure we offered to wager with the South Africans loser pulls their bid out of the voting. They refused as far as I know.

    But when there's no head or body within a mile it makes a mockery of the whole thing. Swinging a boot Inna crowded area is already penalisable under dangerous play.

    Why risk it buddy, its a rule that takes stupid away
    I remember a outrage when spear tackles were outlawed but it made sense, i see this in the same way

    Is that an ear or a slice of bacon that O'Mahony has?

    Does Sexton take more time addressing the ball than any other no 10?

    I'd like to see the replay again of POM on the ground there. It looked like Louw was pulling at his ear.

    For some reason I expected ice to come out of POM's cut.

    Dunno, Farrell always looks like he's going to lay another ball while he cracks his neck 87 times before the kick.

    Conway is so like Earls here with his work rate and lines.

    Bundi making life so hard for the SA 10 and 1w.

    Long time to go. Our tight 5 bench options are pretty raw.

    SA are going into Irish territory. I hope our lead is not diminished from a SA try.

    Didn't recognise Stander without his trademark head strappiing. Is he trying to confuse his compatriots? :D
