European Champions Cup 20-21 - Rd 1

[Ragey Erasmus]

Absolute coach killer. Just score and immediately start ******* about in your own 22 and concede a penalty. What were Bristol thinking there?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Purdy's positioning has been poor on attack, always overrunning his lines

Bristol not giving up/have woken up - TBP not out of the question

 

[FrenchFan]

Good to see Penaud back the one back at test level at Clermont

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Another braindead moment by Bristol in their 22. It's one thing being adventurous when there is something on but Bristol are doing the headless chicken routine of playing a high risk low reward game.

That was a ridiculous decision against Bristol there... He got hit downwards, it wasn't sealing off at all.

 

[Groundhog]

Do think Brace has got a couple of calls badly wrong here, mostly against Bristol. Thought Bristol might come back there but that try is a comeback killer. Outrageous pass from Parra there.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Filthy pass, more like a crossfield kick

I agree. The commentators were singing his phrases after the break down the wing, but to me he has looked very poor/pedestrian otherwise.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

1pt isn't a bad return for Brizzle considering how rampant Clermont have been

 

[TRF_Olyy]

That kick from Malins - they looked dead on to get the LBP

Really entertaining game, felt more like a Baabaas one than a Champions Cup one

 

[FrenchFan]

19 tries scored in first two games I know why I like the Champs Cup. Can't see Clermont winning it though.

When I was a little girl, I had a rag doll.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Pilou pilou is the most cringe thing in rugby

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Cokanasiga really needs to work on his awareness and positioning in defence, he never looked outside there and did not need to bite in for that tackle.

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Forward I reckon

 

[Tooting Carmen]

Blatant forward passes by both sides being missed by ref.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

McConnochie really should be playing for England

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Curse of the French director in our game,
Try given despite a forward pass,
Field position came from a lineout that should've been ours (winger caught a chargedown in field then tackled over the line, the chargedown didn't go over the line), and blatant knockons going the wrong way
