Top 14 Day 7

I'm watching the game through a streaming of CANAL +, I don't understand anything of what the journalists say.

C'mon Toulouse!!!!!!
 
biiiig start from Toulouse, looking fabulous what a try. Corey Flynn maliciously walks over Iguiniz like that. Red debatable but there's some sense there. Toulouse show mental frailty once again. A red either brings a group together or it breaks them, doesn't leave a team indifferent - did the latter to Toulouse, of course. Biarritz with some fantastic plays, and dat scruuum...
Dusautoir looking in mighty top form again, promising.
 
heart wrenching to watch for Toulouse...:( they've got to get back on track. Watching the Bayonne scrum this year in particular has me wondering why we haven't picked Aretz Ignuiniz even ONCE at LH ?
Good win for Bayonne, disgusting circumstances for Toulouse. I was really starting to think we're giving reds too easily, what is it this year, 5 reds were shown already ? Damn...
Second half, boring as shiit...hopefully tomorrow brings more joyful results.
 
Good too to see that the more professional predicktionists got somewhere near the truth and it's now season 61/62 since Touloose lost 5 on the trot!!!!!!!!
How if French fan going to react!!!! hardly any call ups for the Internationals and they keep looooooooooooooosing!!!!!!!!!!

Well Gaston did good for his first predicktion of the weekend but he may have a bad weekend, too much concetration getting his excellent predicktions for the Ryder Cup correct, he's under tremendous pressure this weekend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

aww you poor thing...
ah I see gastuin is in a verbose mood today, nothing new of course. Yep it's piling up for Toulouse but they'll bounce back eventually, still 20 more Days and yesterday was just a freakishly rough game refereeing wise with Maestri's yellow then the red, both debatable at very least, amongst many decisions that went against ST. But I reckon YOUR Montypellier are put to the test in a few minutes, let's see how talkative you are during/after that mmmm ?????
 
Shame that Sky could not honour the moment of silence observed at Toulon like everyone actually at the ground!
 
unbelievable try from Dupont there. Beat like 6 defenders on his way to the goal. Montypellier more in this than it looked possible a little earlier.
 
well no big surprise, as I said (albeit quietly) Toulon wins with the bonus. Fall botched on purpose that try, under my orders. I SAID win WITH bonus...that Montypellier dared even question that, repeatedly, is offense enough in itself...
Ranger completely messed up that 100m opportunity - runs deep and right before contact throws it left to Fall wide open, an int'l winger with a boulevard...anyways, like I said.
Toulon seem to have a knack for crushing the *smaller* teams at home...or is it Montypellier that's got a subscription for taking 40 when traveling in the big bastions of France ?...:rolleyes:
 
if if if if if if if if if but it was not to be, well beaten end of story, shall buy some glue for Fall when i see him on Tues, back to the Ryder Cup!!!!!!!!!!!! Surprised Mamuka frightened of Montpellier comes on get a yellow so he does not have to play, some things never change!!!!!!!1

Good job ii used my Joker, god thinking Batman

If you apply the rule it was premeditated so red but still harsh, the refs are seeing red this season a little too often
 
That was a red just like Melee's last week for the stamp when the ball was miles away! That was almost as bad as Joseph's on Bracken for the AB's against England years ago........who said I was geting old and losing my memory!!

obviously. I understand Top 14 refs and authorities were given instructions to lock it up even more this season, but what is this the 5th we've seen already ? A red is basically game over. Flynn does walk on Iguiniz's articulation area on his outside ankle, and that's awful and surely merits sanction, but I'd rather the federation finds a more "extra-curricular" way of punishing those fkng idiots, a way that is more individual and therefor more fair and punishes the collective less or at least on the day. For e.g. ban a player for a few matches, team pays the price but not in a direct fashion. Plus financial sanctions against the player, and perhaps club too.

But (in theory) if you get a red at home in the Top 14 at the start of the game, that's just a catastrophe (e.g. Brive last week). Home games NEED to be won. Some guy on your team does one stupid play, and your season is in jeopardy. It's not fair.
 
James O'Connor is some player. Seems to really be enjoying his time with Toulon. Great to see him playing top flight rugby, where he should be.
