Clermont vs Leinster thread and how to delay a plane...
First topic message reminder :
So this is the big one, huge one, massive one!
Some are calling this the unofficial final.
Two powerhouses in European Rugby and arguably the best two teams in the competition coming together.
Recent tussles have favoured Leinster who beat Clermont in the Aviva convincingly enouugh and in the RDS by the skin of their teeth with James missing a good few kicks at goal. Clermont beat Leinster in France but the visitors managed to get a crucial LBP.
Huge match ups all over the field.
The entire front rows
Hines vs Thorn
Sexton vs James
Rougerie vs O'Driscoll
Kearney vs Byrne
Home advantage sees Clermont the slight favourites but they have moved the game to Bordeaux.
Thoughts on who can win it?
Team you want to see?
Where the game can be won for each side?
Ref?
Rant?
Let it all come out here.
I have a tiny bit of a huge problem here also:
I (like a fool) decided to go to Budapest this weekend. My return flight leaves at 17:25 Hungarian time (also French time).
My question is...how do I delay a plane......?

D'Arcy must come off. He is a yellow card in waiting.

Re: Clermont vs Leinster thread and how to delay a plane...
Even having lost Byrne and Malzieu early, you do feel the likes of Sivivatu, Fofana and Rougerie could win this yet for Clermont. What a backs division!

Leinster need a talking to here. That was just naughty from D'Arcy.

Not a yellow in waiting from Barnes though. That's a yellow.

the more I see that replay of D'Arcy, the more I think that's a yellow.

We are the real Leinster with Reddan on. Makes us a far better side.

Role reversal, now Clermont will be lamenting their lineout.

It is. As I said in a bad way though I don't think Barnes has any intention of carding Leinster.

Brad Thorn is some clever geezer. Using all his experience.

Great defence from Clermont. D'arcy clearly our weak link.

He won't have a choice if there are more offences.

D'Arcy sticking out like a sore thumb right now. Totally out of his depth.

Zhirashvilli off as well think the scrum and lineout might be swinging in Leinster favour

Now Van De Merwe turning the screw at scrumtime.
Such an eventful game and still 20 mins left.

This is a 23 man game now. Benches win games.

Once again Leinster have turned around the scrum and lineout. Their self believe is something else.

That was selfish by Kearney, should have passed out.

There have been a couple of instances for both sides where Barnes could easily have shown yellows.
Come on Sexton, thats bottle

I'd have gone for the scrum/tap and go. Leinster backs starting to take charge.

Constant holding on. Barnes has warned them several times.

Leinster need to score again now. Don't let them back in again. I don't want another nail biter.

Entire new front row for Clermont now, and Bonnaire and Hines their two best lineout forwards are off. They could be game changing substitutions, and not in a good way for Clermont.

It looked that way yeah.
This is some turn around. Set piece and everything. Another score for Leinster and Clermont will really lose their belief.

Why is Fitz taken off for McFadden instead of D'Arcy? *face palm*

You could invite him to Chef's Summer Bash. Guest of honour?

I don't think anything they've done warrants a card half as much as what Cullen and D'Arcy did.
