Heineken Champions Cup Final 2019

[munstermuffin]

Williams is exposing Lowe alot so far.

Packs are still very even. It's a question of who will use ball better

 

[TommiG88]

Fardy illegally killing the ball. Penalty against Barritt for nothing.

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

The irish commentary openly stating to get rid of the refs because they disagree with the decisions, no attempt at impartiality at all. Calling for Barrett to get a yellow. ******* ridiculous.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

So many neck rolls being missed, from both sides

I thought world rugby was meant to be clamping down on them

 

[Rinkadink]

This is possibly the most biased commentary I've ever heard on TV.

 

[big ginger 8]

Right commentary on one of the available channels are apparently bad. Do we need a load of posts about that instead of about what is a very physical match with a lot happening? So many match threads end up talking about the commentary or the ref and you wouldn't actually know what happened in the match from reading them.

Plenty of nerves from both sides but no real fear.

 

[munstermuffin]

Leinster will win this by 10. Larmour and Williams though look to be the 2 main guys on show

 

[Rinkadink]

24, 25, just 26 minutes

Almost ruining a good game, this. Crowd mic mix is really low too.

Typical Irish response.

Saracens only have themselves to blame at the moment. Been the better side but poor decisions and control when it matters.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Obstruction by Fardy, surely?

 

[big ginger 8]

Bobnoxious still has it. Don't think Healy got that.

Saracens commitment to killing it instead of conceding is impressive.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Yellow? For real?
Jeeze

 

[TRF_Olyy]

**** me, imagine losing both props at the same time

 

[TommiG88]

Yellow? For real?
Jeeze

Yep. Must expect a few more yellows now.

If you heard just how bad it was you wouldn't be saying that.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Wut?

I didn't realise our purpose was to give you a rolling written match summary. Its part of the experience for the majority of people following this final, of course we are going to talk about all aspects.

On the subject when commentators don't even know the name of "their number 3" you know it's bad.

Typical English response...like what?

I've never watched Heaslips commentary I don't disagree he probably is biased especially if he's paired with Nugent but really why watch the match if it effects you enough to make a load of comments on it as happens every match he does same with Jiffy and any international match with the other teams commentary team. It's just really boring and trite.

Also there are always other options to get a different commentary team if it's that bad.

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

I thought Farrell not rolling that close to the goal line should have been a yellow in itself.

Leinster should be winning by more saracens have not looked good in attack

 

[Jimbo]

Leinster really getting away with it clearly Williams was tackled into touch over the shoulder early doors nothing happened, should have been a pen to sarries for holding on.
