I'm on tenterhooks here for another Brian O'Driscoll 'basket case' remark...or was that sort of judgement just reserved for Ulster?! 👀

[Munster Rugby @Munsterrugby]

Munster Rugby can confirm that Roger Randle will not be joining the province as Attack Coach.

@Turbinetraveler @jamiepow 👀 It’s as real as it gets.

[Alastair McCollum @AliMcC512]

This is absolutely next level trolling/stating the facts by the main man Russ Petty.

Still, from an Ireland point of view, you would take a 20-minute red card over the All Blacks losing two Barretts in the first 20 minutes.

[Alastair McCollum @AliMcC512]

For me, that Beirne red card is a classic case of the rugby rule book not aligning with the real-life rugby scenario.

That replay needs looked at in real time at full speed.

Barrett comes on a short line from nowhere. Beirne has milliseconds to react and is passive in contact.

[Alastair McCollum @AliMcC512]

@CharlieFelix It's a terrible look for Rugby Union.

In a fixture where the rationale is 'grow the game' in the States.

Spend five minutes reviewing a call with clunky communication between officiating teams and no available replays in the Stadium.

Add in the Sunday League style pitch!

[Alastair McCollum @AliMcC512]

For the second week in row, that is another statement win for Ulster Rugby.

They were hungry and right up for the contest all afternoon in Durban.

Made even better by contending with multiple injuries and positional changes.

No Scrum, No Win? No Bother!

@HullCharley34 @TaylorMadeTour I'd love them, thanks Charley! 🤞🏻

[Alastair McCollum @AliMcC512]

@dwwwdf There are large boards set up across the field from the entrance from the road. They act as the main passages to follow and then marshalls direct you onto grass. It was firm enough today but it could wear as week goes on and if there's more rain.

[Alastair McCollum @AliMcC512]

Well, so far the #TheOpen experience has been paying £17 for a Park & Ride that has had an hour and 15 minute queue to wait for a security check that has two scanning machines in a small, under-staffed tent. @TheOpen @RandA @BBCMarkSimpson

[Alastair McCollum @AliMcC512]

@rickinyorkshire I saw that it was about 2.50 for soft drink cans, 7.95 per pint, 8.00 for a glass of wine.

You are allowed to bring in your own food and drinks, though no alcohol permitted.

[Alastair McCollum @AliMcC512]

@RuaidhriOC He could be next in line for Andy Farrell and the Lions should another TH injury occur?

[Alastair McCollum @AliMcC512]

@rbarnett08 GO MARCELL! 💪🏻
