@VinceMcSA You’re obviously just fishing for a reaction at this stage, you have had zero to add that is either constructive or coherent, just insults and buzz words. Hopefully with time you will either mature or educate yourself so best of luck and take care 👍
@VinceMcSA Firstly I’m not a kid and didn’t use chat GPT…. Secondly if I was a kid as you think, I’d have a good look at yourself thinking it’s acceptable to abuse a kid calling them loser, weak and pathetic… the fact you’re resulting to insults says more about you
@VinceMcSA An eloquent retort and no you didn’t, but for you to come in insulting someone on a comment off the bat there’s no doubt it upset you, as to cause an emotional response.
@danbaileyza My point of that is you can ask a lot of rugby fans about South African rugby and you will hear things about doping etc, there have been a good few clowns but doesn’t mean they all are. The fact yous have a reputation for that does it mean it’s justified?
@Bot100000t They’re pretty much the only team that has consistently challenged the French, and for all the rubbish people go on about spending we aren’t spending 50% of what they are, the only way we can actually keep the players is they can get a tax break on their 10 best years earnings.
@danbaileyza Could be equally said about yourself for any rugby match, all teams do this (which is my point) and if you don’t think they do you’re blinkered
@FplBalance Tone and context are a lot hence read through things.
Anyway we agree this is going in circles & likely have to agree to disagree here
I’m delighted the South Africans have joined if the moaning could be dialled back a bit amazing but the passion and rivalries created are great
@XRP4Me33 100% won’t know either road, it was a bit of a purists match, but it was a though game defensively and at the breakdown, which I think is why there were so many errors… stormers hit with huge intensity from the start.
South African teams have definitely improved the URC
@FplBalance Hardly a dissertation, a good 10-20k words short and if you’re not going to actually read a discussion and make an informed comment would you be better off not commenting.
This wasn’t meant as a shot at South Africans more at the consistent moaning about officials of some fans.
@FplBalance I’m not reframing exact same response I sent within an hour to someone else, the amount of moaning about officials, not all but a lot of South African fans is unreal - it was tongue in cheek that none of them seemed to moan when she missed decisions for Leinster
@danbaileyza The amount of times stormers players lay the wrong side, rolled into the ruck and blocked a clean out would be equal in number - again as other comments you can go through I’d say 90% of rucks in a game and find a penalty.
@FplBalance Missed my point, in that she missed that in the stormers favour and a lot of fans up to that point were trying to call her biased - I think she missed calls but both ways
@VinceMcSA No we won actually!!! In all my other comments I note she made mistakes both ways but just have a whinge without actually reading the context - if the South African argument is refs are the only reason you lose they must be the only reason yous won WC as well!! 😉😂
@Bot100000t I’m always amazed by this negativity towards Leinster 12 of the starting 15 came through our academy. Lowe and JGP were not anywhere near household names when signed but developed well
Ioane was the only major signing in the first 15
The bench 7 of 8 are from the academy
@Asequential Don’t think anyone said that either, but if you want to moan about a ref it’s lazy as in a game like rugby there is probably an infringement every ruck,
@DylanGoliath50 And I felt the same on some with Leinster like around the 65min mark where willemse ripped the ball on the ground when Keenan was tackled both knees on the ground in the stormers 22, ball cleared and opportunity gone… as I said I think things were missed both sides
