Toulouse to do it !
Ah, Laurence, how I hated you when you were playing especially againt us French. But trust me it s a compliment. Regarding the game i would say its 50-50 but i think Toulouse will make it. Anyway it will be a massive game, with the 2 best teams in the world and i stand by this statement
Capped for England at 6. Impressively young to get a cap!
Leinster definitely were playing better attacking rugby last year. This year they look tougher but not as sharp. I worry that Toulouse will dominate the lineout which is one of our most used attacking platforms. But Leinster in my opinion adapt better to adversity than Toulouse. We just have to give them some adversity to deal with.
Talking about the trinity of Lawrence hilly and back , makes me think is Lawrence wasted in the media..? Richard hill is enjoying and giving great service to his country still in Borthwicks England . But Lawrence I’ve always thought would be a great coach. Dunno just a feeling and maybe Lawrence doesn’t fancy it , but always liked his insight and surprised he’s not coaching .
Leinster have not been as good this year. Byrne is the weak link and Ringrose has been a huge loss with injury.
What's so interesting on the ceiling, Gordon? Sigh. You know there's a camera there, right?
