Investec Champions Cup 23/24 - Rd 3

@munstermuffin "team" twitter always means the fans of the team on social media

Still not all 1 way.
And would question are these actual fans on both sides

To be fair saw game and Larmour had good game. But hard to judge against a poor Stade team I'm sure you'd accept.

Munster twitter the official 1 didn't even mention Leinster. So again that is lies.
Also yes some "fans" probably had a go at Leinster. Equally saw plenty coming other way too.
1 comment was "If Nash is ahead of Larmour again then Andy Farrell should be sacked. Screwing up once is forgiveable bit twice is a joke"

Another was "If Nash is seen as international class the game has gone to pot. Wouldn't get in our second 23"

And last was "If Nash is ahead of Larmour then it just IRFU giving in to turnips as he is a terrible rugby player overall"

So maybe predictable but show full picture and not twisted to suit a 1 way thing.

Again would state Munster twitter had nothing about Leinster

I don't mean the official account, it obviously won't mention any other games. Just very prominent posters who media feed off, it's boring as anything to go after a guy who'd been struggling for form. And I'm not having any of that post, no one here is comparing Larmour to Nash, Michael Jordan levels of making up slights down there around international windows. A bad feeling for Munster never really existed here even when they were the better side, it's changed the last 6 months because of rubbish like this being constant for seasons now.

Most Leinster fans on twitter don't think he should start for Leinster let alone Ireland, very little talk of him in an Irish 23:

I know the RFU covered a chunk of his salary for this season but Watson is still a waste of money with his injury record

But equally there is Leinster fans having a cut at Nash. Most Munster fans aren't overly concerned with lads getting a irish call up as it an injury risk in 1 sense. My point was most accept Larmour playing well last few weeks. And my point of not basing on 1 game is Leinster beat La Rochelle away too.
Take all that online stuff from both camps with pinch of salt

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Tigers gonna be lucky to get with 15

I'm not talking about accounts with no followers here. 14k follower fan account with a lot of engagement below and there's about 3-4 other accounts with the same or more with constant BS like this.



Larmour, Ross Byrne and Jack Conan are the usual targets. Jimmy too before the World Cup and JGP wandering into the line of sight. It's blatant, tiresome and usually involves blatantly incorrect opinions like this bozo.

I'm now completely not buying the argument that the Premiership is weak and is the root cause of England's struggles. The performances of the likes of Bath, Saints, Exeter and to a lesser extent Quins put paid to that argument.

The talent is there. It's down to Borthwick to get the best out of it.

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

I thought it was strange that La Rochelle weren't being absolute grubs but then Skelton tried to crush a winger and Dillane went in with the high shot.

No crisis here.

Was always a terrible argument tbh, just EJ and Borthwick blaming others

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

No crisis here.

Scratch that Brace reffing the breakdown flawlessly is worrying me.

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

One of the most forward passes so far.

But again it works both ways. Keith Earls got it for majority of career, POM was getting it alot too. And wait and see Crowley is on that list too I seen.
I'm not disagreeing but Leinster have a few like that with plenty of followers. Majority as I said will be armchair viewers and not get the game. Easy follow it via twitter and articles

 

[Stade Rochelais]

Skelton best try

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Martin is gonna be a tank in a few years

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Shilcock had to do better there

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Martin is gonna be a tank in a few years

Already is.

Shillcock not gonna want to see that again. Really soft tackle attempt.

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Shillcock gets batted off far too easily when he goes in to tackle. It's happened more than once this game.

 

[Stade Rochelais]

La Rochelle is back.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Skelton is just comically big/strong, really is like an adult playing against kids
