    Quins 16 ahead at HT but they have recent history when way ahead lately

    Incredibly disappointing from Bordeaux so far. They've given up scores far too easily.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,421 ✭✭✭✭Clegg


    That Bordeaux try is one of the greatest I've ever seen.

    The offload out of the tackle that was gathered on the laces.

    Perfection.

    That is some offload. Jouez in full flow

    Doesnt look like Quins will be able to last the 80 at the pace of the first half. Looking far less cohesive, getting isolated.

    Edit: lucky to get away with jumping into a kicker there and making head contact with the elbow.

    The charge down is a YC. Forearm into the head



  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 9,623 ✭✭✭fitz


    Whatever about the ref thinking it was ok, I was surprised the TMO didn't come in.



  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 9,623 ✭✭✭fitz


    Again, Bordeaux giving up a try too cheaply. Their scrum is costing them.

    Quins done



  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 9,623 ✭✭✭fitz


    You'd think Bordeaux will pull away now. Quins look like they went out to build a big lead in the first half and put the game away, but they're starting to flag now. Expect another try for Bordeaux by the end.



  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 9,623 ✭✭✭fitz


    My goodness. Bordeaux can't defend a maul for love nor money. Awful every time.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,790 ✭✭✭✭Burkie1203


    Nut game



  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 9,623 ✭✭✭fitz


    Bananas. Non stop drama.

    Ball dropped.



  • Moderators, Sports Moderators, Paid Member Posts: 34,190 Mod ✭✭✭✭Podge_irl


    Why is that a goal line drop out?



  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 9,623 ✭✭✭fitz

    Mental.

    Dombrant making sure everyone gets a breather.



  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 9,623 ✭✭✭fitz


    Incroyable. What a time to miss a conversion.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 43,052 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    I cannot believe that. It was a fantastic game and well done Harlequins.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,122 ✭✭✭Shehal


    You do see today for all the flair Bordeaux have why having European experience is so important.



  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 9,623 ✭✭✭fitz


    Bordeaux's scrum and maul defense cost them that game. Sickener for Lucu having missed that last kick though.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 4,948 ✭✭✭StevenToast


    Toulouse are delighted.

    Missed this. Wasn't expecting it to be the match of the weekend



  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 9,623 ✭✭✭fitz


    Was pure chaos, reminded me of Super Rugby. Plenty of poor defense and lots of scoring as a result.

    Watching Saints/Bulls now. Christ I hate when Austin Healey is on commentary.



  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 9,623 ✭✭✭fitz


    Bulls get a try much as soon as they get into the Saints 22. Will be pretty hilarious if this "second string" team put one over on Saints.

    Double movement from Lawes, surely? Tackle complete but he never released?
