Challenge Cup 25/26 - Megathread

Cardiff auditioning for a spot in Super Rugby with these tackle attempts

Awful structure, been an issue all season. Its a bad combination of having the smallets and lightest average backline in europe, and an all out touchline to touchline attacking structure.

When teams play in front of us we minimise the issue, when however they play off turnover you really see the size and power deficit.

2 out of 6 lineouts dont fuxking help!!!

Bulls v Bristol looks like it was a fun one, 110 points

Racing trying too hard now, they have a big power advantage but dont seem to be able to use it, theyre overplaying...

Racing a little unlucky to be down by 9, but they need composure here.

What a turn around by the Newcastle Red Bulls this season so far with an away win in Lyon ( which I was fortunate to attend ) and two home victories against the Johannesburg Lions & Perpignan. We have a little away trip down to Dragons which again I'm travelling down for, in the knowledge we have already secured a home tie in the last 16.
