It read to me that he's spent his time in rehab and had posted on instagram afterwards to report that he's been busy getting his head straight. Sounded as though he'd spent a couple of weeks there. I'm no expert on matters of rehab and recovery but It struck me that two weeks wouldn't be near enough for him. Either way - good on him seeking out the help and, for the sake of his four kids, I hope he gets himself better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malinga the Swinga Posted May 4 Author Share Posted May 4 Fingers crossed Toulouse win the whole thing. A neutral referee will certainly help them. Will be a change to see a trophy at Tottenham's stadium, that's for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndrewB Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 Listened to the last 20 mins of Leinster-Northampton on BBC 5 Sports Extra yesterday. I’m no lover of Leinster but the commentary of some halfwit English fanboy plus a former Northampton player / coach would have made BBC Radio Northampton blush with embarrassment at the bias. Great to hear the tears when Leinster won. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great to hear the tears when Leinster won. Whatever about the media coverage, I had the good fortune to be sitting close to the corner where four of the tries were scored. Northampton had a couple of thousand in the ground, and most of them were seated next to us. They were outnumbered, but they were brilliant. They made plenty of noise, especially when Saints got back into the game and scored two tries right in front of them. Fair play to them, and not a complaint could be heard from them on the walk back into town afterwards (except about the appalling queues for the gents).

I don’t listen to tons of rugby on the radio but found it annoying that I couldn’t be watching a clock (so wasn’t always sure if it was stoped or running, which makes a difference in a close match)or see where on the field the action was happening which is also significant.

Malinga the Swinga Posted Saturday at 15:59 Author Share Posted Saturday at 15:59 Results today have gone okay for Edinburgh. Beat Benetton and they're in play offs. As for last night, some might say ref allowed Munster to get away with the same tricks they, Leinster and Ireland have perfected in last few years. Lie over ball, come in from side, if more offside and winge like babies to referees if so much as a decision goes against them. They also roll away from breakdown straight into way of opposition but few refs have guts to ping them. Hopefully Leinster get pumped in Euro cup and a South African team can wit championship. Glasgow don't look like they strength but anything would be better than Leinster/munster and their obnoxious supporters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PortyJambo Posted Saturday at 16:06 Share Posted Saturday at 16:06 Glasgow not doing themselves, or Edinburgh, any favours. Getting hammered by the Lions in South Africa despite playing the whole of the 2nd half against 14 men, and the first part of it against 13. They've given up 5 tries since having the numerical advantage 🤦♂️ The bonus point win for the Lions brings them level on points with Edinburgh.

PortyJambo Posted Saturday at 20:45 Share Posted Saturday at 20:45 Quite a race for the playoffs in the URC with only 1 game to go, with 4 points separating Edinburgh in 7th and Ospreys in 11th. Lot of permutations of who will make the quarter finals, but it's simple for Edinburgh, beat Benetton and they're in. That's not going to be an easy task though, they're a good team these days and winning in Treviso is no simple matter. If I was betting on it, I'd actually put my money on Benetton. A losing bonus point or 2 with a try bonus (haha, as if, with Edinburgh this season!) might be enough for them still to sneak in though depending on results elsewhere.

As well as being a footballer, my oul' fella was a referee. He always said that blaming the ref was a way of avoiding thinking about your own performance. It was one of his better lessons, so I guess it's stuck in my head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
