Why is it so bad? What the hell have they been doing to it?

No idea but it's good to see Barnes being as picky a shitlord as he ever is.

But utterly inconsistent as well.

Hopefully they're just trying poo poo out in the last warm up and it's not a real indicator of capability.

Their two best guys are meant to be Richie and Johnny Gray and neither are doing well, though Barnes is letting Picomoles away with a lot of poo poo while they're in the air.

That was probably more to do with shite cover from France but good vision and work rate to set it up all the same.

Utter retards. A draw is better than a loss, particularly if you're not confident in winning it in the last minute.

Only reason to do that is if they wanted some experience in trying to win a game but all it meant is that they now think they can't. Still shouldn't have come to that if they had scored the try five minutes earlier.

on the upside, France failed to put away a pretty lacklustre Scotland side at home, so Ireland don't have much to worry about.

Looked like he didn't realise how close Tomane was to him and was just coasting. Shame because it'd have really lifted the game.

I love Leinster and I couldn't be happier that Jordie Barrett has signed with them on a short term deal.
Rhys Webb has torn a ligament in his ankle, and the fall also caused ligament damage to one of his knees :{

The space on the left, underneath my name has clearly become cursed at some point.

Due to Zebre lacking 9 of their first team players for international duty, Cardiff have managed to start the season with a good result, running in 11 tries. Final result 61--13, even after missing 8 of the conversions and the single penalty kick at goal. This is our year boys, just need to hope the World Cup lasts all season, right?

Who do you think is getting called up to replace Webb and Halfpenny? Probably Mike Phillips for Webb, but who for Halfpenny? Replace him with a 3rd hooker after all?

Have a feeling they won't replace one of them like for like and will call up Moriarty instead.
After Gareth Davies' shitshow on the weekend I hope they get Phillips though.

That really sucks, friendlies shouldn't be anything more than warm ups with no real competition and definitely no injuries. Id be happier if they were used for working out best replacements rather than first team who should be sorted by that point anyway.

Is there any news on Halfpenny? My gut feeling is an ACL tear, and that he's hosed for a year. Goddamnit.
