Lucky they've a duplicate

thomond2006 · 22-05-2021 5:00pm

Irish hijack!

Shaka Hislop · 22-05-2021 5:02pm

Loads of Munster jerseys in the crowd

Car99 · 22-05-2021 5:06pm

The camera is obsessed with that girl on the crowd

RugbyLover123 · 22-05-2021 5:06pm

Kerr Barlow two awful passes from both those scrums. Loses momentum both times

thomond2006 · 22-05-2021 5:16pm

This is dire. Error and penalty ridden.

Happyhouse22 · 22-05-2021 5:17pm

Haha- Quinlan really really didn’t like that kick!

If Sexton Did that can’t see anyone saying anything...

Larbre34 · 22-05-2021 5:19pm

Au revoir.

A-Train · 22-05-2021 5:19pm

That’s a red

thomond2006 · 22-05-2021 5:20pm

Shoulder to the head with force. Red card all day.

Utopia Parkway · 22-05-2021 5:20pm

Hate it because it might ruin the final but it's a clear red card. Idiotic.

Burkie1203 · 22-05-2021 5:21pm

Skelton with a cheap shot there too

Larbre34 · 22-05-2021 5:22pm

Mutton chops absorbed the hit.

Plus the fact he is Wolverine and heals instantly.

Shaka Hislop · 22-05-2021 5:23pm

No worry, no hurry, red card time

thomond2006 · 22-05-2021 5:23pm

How was Médard not taken off immediately?!

swiwi_ · 22-05-2021 5:27pm

Man that was a rubbish first up decision from the ref. Red card and he just goes straight for a YC. Take your time man.

awec · 22-05-2021 5:27pm

Skelton is a serious piece of apparatus to have in your team.

RugbyLover123 · 22-05-2021 5:28pm

La Rochelle would’ve been better off going for a scrum after that yellow.

The YC was for tackling within 10 on the penalty, just happened to be the same guy who got the red...

bilston · 22-05-2021 5:34pm

Skelton is unlucky there surely.

bilston · 22-05-2021 5:35pm

Good kick by Ntamack but I dont think it was even a penalty.

thepogues · 22-05-2021 5:35pm

Ntamack with a lovely bit of chithousery

RugbyLover123 · 22-05-2021 5:35pm

Another boring all French affair. Ball in play for about 5 minutes so far.

thomond2006 · 22-05-2021 5:37pm

This is horrendous. Penalties everywhere.

Car99 · 22-05-2021 5:38pm

Yep but it's good viewing.

ongarite · 22-05-2021 5:40pm

Toulouse very disappointing so far; not trying to use their man advantage yet.
Maybe in last 20 it will tell.
La Rochelle have been very good since the red card.

thepogues · 22-05-2021 5:40pm

I've seen more of the girl with the yellow top in the crowd than I have of Kolbe so far.

long_b · 22-05-2021 5:45pm

I'd admire Luke Pearce's French if he wasn't so annoying.g
Good job Barnesy is in the TMO

Also, ROG good value in the stands

And he was right - it was a "f**king card"

Richie_Rich89 · 22-05-2021 5:52pm

La Rochelle are a good team. Their pack, defence and breakdown work could win it for them yet.

I thought there was possibly enough of a dip from Médard to mitigate the red down to yellow.

There was no dip. Botia was always illegal

lawrencesummers · 22-05-2021 5:56pm

Can Larochelle keep up their work rate?
Can TL get their backs into the game?

Larbre34 · 22-05-2021 5:56pm

Every bit as bad no?

Can't blame the SR skipper for being bemused to say the least.

blackwhite · 22-05-2021 5:57pm

Fairly clear hit to the neck. Strange how certain they were without looking too hard at it

Sabre0001 · 22-05-2021 5:58pm

That looked pretty similar. Surprised there wasn't one or more looks at the angle from behind posts.

Larbre34 · 22-05-2021 5:59pm

Super tackle.

sliabh 1956 · 22-05-2021 6:05pm

this is awful fare for a final

Car99 · 22-05-2021 6:06pm

Could we give Girl in the yellow top the person of the match trophy

Finals are like this more often that not.

As a neutral I'd much rather see it 12-12 with half hour left than 33-12.

thepogues · 22-05-2021 6:11pm

Apparently the stadium was full at kick off. Lads started leaving after 20 minutes of this.

ongarite · 22-05-2021 6:12pm

Try saving tackle there IMO.

RugbyLover123 · 22-05-2021 6:19pm

Error after error..

sliabh 1956 · 22-05-2021 6:19pm

Cant believe both teams are so poor at the basic skills

ongarite · 22-05-2021 6:19pm

Healy trolling now on the BT commentary

aloooof · 22-05-2021 6:19pm

Poor fare, but the scoreline is keeping it pretty interesting.

A-Train · 22-05-2021 6:21pm

That was coming. I think the extra man will show now in the last 20 mins for Toulouse

thepogues · 22-05-2021 6:21pm

Looks so easy when it's done right

Aidric · 22-05-2021 6:22pm

LAR did well to hold out until now. I hope they can mount a comeback from here but honestly I think Toulouse will kick on.

vetinari · 22-05-2021 6:26pm

How is that not a penalty for tackling in the air?
