[TRF_Olyy]

SH rugby cannot into scrummaging

 

[Welshdragon2000]

Tipuric is having a great game here, absolutely love him

If only there was a code of rugby that requires no scrums and mauls....

Yeh I think a back row of Him, Stander and TF would be great.

Webb is having a good game bar his dire kicking. There's no way he can just give away kicks like that to Beauden Barrett.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Dan Bigger ladies and gentlemen.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Miles offside

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Is SBW doing Ramadan?
If so how is he still managing to play on no food and water? Guy his size must require a ton of fuel
Unless he broke fast pre game? Looks pretty dark there, I don't know what timings are like

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

I really like the Lions' defensive system, the blitz with covering wingers is exactly how to deal with Beauden.

They can drink I think.

It's an 8 hour fast in a day so not catastrophic. He is fasting though yes.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Lucky break there

 

[Groundhog]

Nothing lucky about that. Biggar was smacked by a guy who clearly had no right to hit him. Shocked the ref even let it run.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

More forwards need to hit these rucks.

You had Cole having to deal with 3 players there.

 

[big ginger 8]

Why do 9s not know how to calm their ***s?

Small guys playing near big guys.

True but pro athletes are used to pin point accurate nutrition and energy gels n bagfuls of Haribo pregame n all that. Energy levels must run out pretty quick
Fair play to him

They can drink I think.

When we learnt about it in school we were told that sick/young/elderly/pregnant were allowed but for healthy adults it counts as breaking fast

 

[GoTheNaki]

This ref tho.........

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Commentators acting like rain is in anyway going to hamper the Lions
The SH merely adopted the rain, we were born in it, moulded by it. We didn't see sunny days until we were already men.

 

[Groundhog]

It's true. I use rainwater as lube
