So B E correcting my posts,!!!!!!!!!!! tis tis how wrong could you be,!!!!!!!!!! the punishment will follow after some thought,!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
take your time. Conjure up something nice.
Clermont bottling it once playoff rugby comes around? Have they never heard of the expression 'broken record' in the south of France?
we don't give two shhits about the English language in the south of France, so uhh...no. But indeed Clermont are chokaholics this year. They deserve their own theme song I reckon. A single, something like "Choke-olate pudding (in your face)".
And yeah
gaston, Brock James and his fkng kicking. Good Lord boy, good Lord...that alone lost them the game, but even passes from hand were bad decisions. They'll relish the arrival of Mr. Lopez at this point.
EDIT
It is easy to say that Clermont "choked" but it would wrong as anyone who actually watched will testify.......Castres played smart pro rugby and throttled ASM who played well but did not up their game until it was far too late.......yes there seemed to be overconfidence and this was probably justified for the first half when they looked the better team but did not take their chances and, as my old mate Gaston says, they butchered several chances when they were playing against 13. But it is approbation to Castres rather than ridicule of ASM for me...............
ahhh...I see what you mean, but the fact is Clermont played to about 30% their capability against the Saracens, whether away or not, and were unrecognizable. That was nothing but choking, no excuses. The Saracens aren't intrinsically that great to put 50 past Clermont, on any day, in any context, whatsoever. Not in a hundred other parallel universes.
As for today, major props to the C.O., no doubt. But were they THAT good ? Did they force James' utter shhhhhittiness for the ages ? Did they apply physical pressure on Clermont so they wouldn't even attempt their trademark runs at home we've seen all year long ?
Clermont still choked, and good on them they at least scored that last try so they "try" column isn't empty on the final sheet, but choking was involved for sure if someone merely considers how well they play during the regular season, compared to tonight - in unison with how mediocre their intrinsic level of play was, on its own, regardless of potential pressure from the opponents.
And now both 1/4F performances paired together, and we've got some fine gourmet choke-olate aficionados here: "Chez Clermont", restaurant gastronomie fine.
