Bath v Leinster

08-12-2018 4:52pm

VdF super sluggish looking

troyzer · 08-12-2018 4:57pm

Surprised Sexton didn't take a drop there. It's that kind of game.

We need to get the finger out on the breakdown.

leakyboots · 08-12-2018 4:58pm

Good slugfest, Louw is a cut above the rest at the breakdown

Ref is being very, very generous.

razorblunt · 08-12-2018 4:58pm

Awful play from McGrath, he flogged the forwards way too much there, they were running the risk of the turnover a few times there.
None of the forwards really carried strongly, except for Leavy's initial mini break.

08-12-2018 4:58pm

How many turnovers are we going to cough up on their 5m.

Leinster usually learn a lot quicker than this, need half time now - don't look like we cans core using route 1.

He looked off his feet there.

griffinlee · 08-12-2018 4:59pm

Bath player not holding his own weight on the last jackal of the half

Synode · 08-12-2018 5:00pm

Tough game. Bath putting in some serious tackles and turning us over at crucial times. Think they'll tire and we'll break loose but we're going to have to up our game

ktulu123 · 08-12-2018 5:01pm

Refereeing at the breakdown is driving me mad. Guys not rolling away at all & then yes, Louw not supporting his body weight at all at the last breakdown

Clegg · 08-12-2018 5:02pm

Think we picked up a bit in the final 10 minutes, but still looking rather laboured. When we get faster ball we're finding gaps but the last phase is killing us. We've been rather poor really. None in the backrow look at the pace.

Synode · 08-12-2018 5:02pm

Ringrose should have passed that time he broke into their 22

Clegg · 08-12-2018 5:04pm

Sexton was in the refs ear when he was running off for HT. Really making the point that Bath were going off their feet constantly. Was pretty aggressive about making his point too.

I thought VdF has had his hands on the ball longer than Louw has for his turnovers.

The Pheasant2 · 08-12-2018 5:04pm

Untidy first half, we'll need to tighten up.

Ringrose pick of our backs for me thus far

Try_harder · 08-12-2018 5:07pm

‪Craig Doyles poloneck must be exterminated!

It must be very frustrating, they've been taking players away from rucks too.

Exeter guy earlier was wearing one too, some ****er working as a buyer in menswear somewhere is attempting to have them make a come back.

Hurrache · 08-12-2018 5:14pm

Anyone using the Eir app having a ****ty time of it today?

Synode · 08-12-2018 5:17pm

Shut up BOD. If they're getting away with it so should we

baas baa · 08-12-2018 5:19pm

Ruddock is having an awful game.

baas baa · 08-12-2018 5:20pm

In fairness Louw got away with similar on Sexton under the nose of the ref in the first half.

It's working fine for me on Chromecast.

It's probably our worst display from our backrows this season and last.

Synode · 08-12-2018 5:21pm

2 super turnovers in 5 mins from Healy

PhlegmyMoses · 08-12-2018 5:21pm

McGrath has some tekkers in the tackle.

troyzer · 08-12-2018 5:21pm

Shut up BOD!

Jesus.

laugh · 08-12-2018 5:22pm

Sexton is losing it with this ref, will have to be careful.

Buer · 08-12-2018 5:22pm

At least we've copped on that the referee is letting the defending team get all over the ball regardless of their body position.

Cheers, must be a local issue so, it keeps stopping and disconnecting, normally is pretty solid.

PhlegmyMoses · 08-12-2018 5:22pm

Lol. Unlucky Bath

laugh · 08-12-2018 5:22pm

LOL. Poor Bath there.

Buer · 08-12-2018 5:23pm

Brilliant first phase set piece move.

troyzer · 08-12-2018 5:23pm

Can't disrespect Larmour like that.

Solid try.

Fann Linn · 08-12-2018 5:23pm

Great take by Larmour.

LuckyGent88 · 08-12-2018 5:23pm

Such a present. Didn’t get much of an advantage unlike first half when Lowe had kicked the ball away but then called it back.

leakyboots · 08-12-2018 5:23pm

Ref calling advantage over was bizarre there

08-12-2018 5:23pm

Bod talking ****e. Not saying anything about the same body positions of the Bath players

A-Train · 08-12-2018 5:24pm

Boom go Jordan

Worst advantage ever

thomond2006 · 08-12-2018 5:24pm

Wilson at 10 is a 35 year old temporary signing out of retirement and he looks every bit of it. That intercepted pass was hopeless.

troyzer · 08-12-2018 5:25pm

Cian Healy of all people complaining about the jackler not supporting his weight.

Amazing.

Buer · 08-12-2018 5:25pm

It wasn't. They got clean turnover ball in open space with numbers outside and were moving it. That is on Wilson not the referee.

A-Train · 08-12-2018 5:25pm

Terrible restart again and they get a penalty straight away

griffinlee · 08-12-2018 5:26pm

Jeez I know it's BT Sport, you think O'Driscoll was from Coventry or some place with his knit picking of Leinster

He wasn't though. He complained about being held by a player on the ground thereby preventing his clear out

Ah, fair enough.

Buer · 08-12-2018 5:30pm

Very dodgy mark call.

Nah, think you're wrong there chief. Ball was intercepted around or behind where the lineout had even taken place.

Contrast with Lowe's advantage
