@kingofillyrians @90sPlayers Only Ronaldo and Robbie Keane scored against O. Khan at 2002 world cup (in open play). Robbiie's was a cracker.

@90sPlayers Until he faced this guy

You didn't mess with Oliver Kahn

@AndyGoode10 Itoje is always very ungracious, he rarely congratulates the other team. A great player but a poor captain.

Borthwick out simples

@NottNicolas @AndyGoode10 Pollock is a good player, but once the ref's cop on to him he'll be a penalty machine. He constantly gets tackeled and gets up without releasing the ball. He's constantly over the ruck trying to slow the ball.

@AndyGoode10 First names on the team sheet - Henry Pollock and Marcus Smith. Build the team around that.

Andy Farrell got his troops firing today, the mark of the head coach, Ireland were class from the first minute. England mirrored Steve Borthwick, uninspiring and dull. Ford’s time is up too in an England shirt

@MrBlack_Rugby @kilianjcarroll So if the ball is passed with the tips of the ball facing north-south, what is this. The position of the tip of the ball is irrelevant

@kilianjcarroll My argument against that Kilian is the top tip of the ball is backwards. Which means the ball is being held and thrown that way. Regardless of the forward momentum

People really need to learn the physics of a pass. It’s an illusion because of the camera angle. If it left the hands forward it would’ve never been caught He’s moving to fast 🤦

@Tobias_Everton @thomascorbet_ar A line on the pitch was able to accentuate physics, wow, thats a better impact in defence than sam prendergast

@thomascorbet_ar Exactly. Not out of the hands forward... play on. It was a long pass as well, with the 22 line nearby, which would naturally accentuate any physics at play. Ruined a great try.

Absolute disgrace to call back Lynagh’s try. Menoncello slows down and remains in front of the ball, it’s simple physics. Shame, farce, and shame again. #IREvITA

@Jimmy_A_87 @RuaidhriOC Hang on, not getting a bonus point could cost us a place in where we finish in the table which has financial implications

@RuaidhriOC In the grand scheme of things it makes absolutely zero difference as we’re not winning the 6N anyway, miles off it. Team was a million times better as soon as he came on, should be focusing on that rather than the missed kick.

Bonus point on the line, Jack Crowley does a Billy Burns That just about sums Ireland's day up. What a dreadful error

@roromcg @jimmcg83 All by himself!!!! Sap

@jimmcg83 Crowley won the 6 Nations after Sexton retired….

If Jack Crowley played for Leinster, he would be the Irish outhalf, if Sam Prendergast was the Munster outhalf, Leinster fans wouldnt let him carry the water. This is madness #Rugby #IrelandvFrance

@ek_rugby This try showed prendergast's strength, ball to the line to the last second. But could he tackle better is another question. Another discussion needed about his kicks for points.

Such a good team try from Leinster. Excellent draw and pass, attackers running at inside shoulders to turn defenders in and the speed from Van der Flier to finish. #LEIvSR

@MacSheoinin_ If i was at the match id only whisper, " Will Skelton os a horrible prick" imagine if he heard you.

24 minutes gone. So far Matt Carley has given us; “No Will”. “Stop Will”. “Will Stop”. “Leave it Will”. “If you speak to me again, you’ll leave the field”. He’s yet to be penalised. 🤷🏻‍♂️ #LEIvLAR #LEIvSR

@TheLooseH language like that totally diminishes any comment. Imo Carley was poor, inconsistent all gane A lecturer for Leinster at every infringement, mc carthys penalty was soft, this happens all the time, same with the Clarkson one for not rolling away, he didn't effect lar's ball.

This person has said I’m rage baiting for saying Carley did well and yet tweets this kind of rubbish. I’ve reported his tweet, his profile, and blocked him.

@CharlieMul63294 @leinsterrugby @bankofireland He ref was incredibly poor, it was never a game for such an inexperienced ref. He missed so much.

Aaaaaand breathe. Victory in Limerick 💥 #MUNvLEI #NeverLessThanEverything

@Johan_Jordaan72 @threeredkings By sorted this by now, you obviously mean years ago unfortunately Porter has always done this, it was just the extra power of sa showed how poor his technique is

@threeredkings Hi Tom, when I look at Porter, he is on the angle before the hit. Then folds in when the pressure comes through. I feel like scrum coach should have sorted that by now.

We have absolutely nothing for South Africa in the scrum. Nothing. I've rarely seen a set piece so lopsided. If it keeps going like this it'll be a yellow card every other scrum. It's not impossible to win from here, but it's in miracle territory.

@BanderWagon @jim_demps The ref and the replay showed, initial contact on the shoulder, but then some contact to the head. No arms equals never legal, any head contact should have meant a yellow

@jim_demps Shoulder on shoulder, only offence there is no wrap

How this isn’t a card is beyond me.

@London__Smoke @TightFive_Rugby And yet in the end Ireland finished camped on the sa tryline. 100% well deserved win but the beauty of sport is, there is always a chance for a plucky underdog

@TightFive_Rugby For an 11 point game this is an absolute massacre. Ireland have been beaten like a red-headed step drum.

I fear we’re well into the ‘not enjoyable’ territory now. Can’t blame South Africa at all, but this is the most disjointed game I’ve seen in a long time. Just put them out of their misery.

@treacy_phil @patmccarry Nothing bew from Rassi, total knob.

No complaints with the James Ryan red card (that was just reckless) Still baffled how that Feinberg-Mngomezulu shot on O'Brien was just deemed a penalty

@RyanTScott @jimhamilton4 How was Sasha EVER legal, he went into the tackle without attempting to wrap his arms, then some (marginal) head contact. There same as Ryan, illegal with head contact should be treated equally

@jimhamilton4 For everyone on the inconsistency. J Ryan was ALREADY in an “always-illegal act of foul play”. Sasha was NOT in an “always-illegal act of foul play” passport.world.rugby/media/j5senlan… I am 🇺🇸 btw, so sure make a joke/banter how could I even know rugby, lol

No confusion on that clear out. It’s red.

@scrumming_ten For all the replies who think Porter's technique is illegal, do you seriously think you know more than the referees!

Has anyone noticed Andrew Porter's scrum technique? His technique is a crime He's the Ritchie McCaw of props

@sa2033 @leinsterrugby @bankofireland The Bulls coach and players were very gracious in defeat. Their fans should be proud of them, but stfu moaning about ref.

@leinsterrugby @bankofireland Ref is worth 25/32 points leinster scored. I’m sorry to say it but you can’t feel justified in winning a title you were handed. Where is the sportmanship.

It's all over at Croke Park! 🏆 #LEIvBUL #NeverLessThanEverything

@CianTracey1 The ref is very very poor, and thats being very nice to him,plain and simple

La Rochelle blessed not to have a man binned for another cynical offence so close to their own line. Maybe the scrap meant the ref forgot about it. Very lucky to get away with it.

@RuaidhriOC The ref is letting LR away with murder, so why wouldn't you take advantage

La Rochelle absolutely tearing into Leinster physically - this is a level these players haven't faced since the World Cup
