Re: Edinburgh V Munster
Yes. For all you can make fun of the likes of Kellock, there's no way he would have done something like that if asked to move out of position. I'm sure it seemed light hearted when he wrote it but he will inevitably be assused of clearly preferring to stand in the backline polishing his tiara. His team need him to pony up and start walloping POC and he's played with Gilchrist in the boiler house before. If I detect the slightest indifference to playing today, then I'll suggest very strongly on these boards that he should p!ss off and leave the players who actually are interested in playing to take the team shirts.VinceWLB wrote:RDW_Scotland wrote:Does anyone else think Denton's tweets about being fairly unenthusiastic about the prospect of playing in the 2nd row were fairly unprofessional?
I know he was just joking and I'm sure he'll give it his best shot, but doesn't really give out the best message.
That was foolish no doubt about it and he came across as a bit of show ponny in saying so. What's the problem about playing in the row when you are 196 cm 115 kg?

I randomly found £30 in a pair of my jeans this afternoon. Must be my lucky day, Edinburgh to win!
Re: Edinburgh V Munster
This is the most attack orientated Edinburgh have been all season - paying off so far!

Crikey O'Blimey Edinburgh! It's like the Edinburgh of 2011-12: they can't defend for toffee, but my goodness they look good going forward!

Poor defence there, Beard looked like the only one who cared.

Very soft and disappointing try to concede just before half time. Why didn't Visser find touch?

My 1st thought as well, probably sliced it..

If we'd held them out I would have said we stood a chance.
As we didn't, we don't.

There were 3 penalties at the breakdown for Edinburgh in the lead up to that try. Ref didn't pick up any.

Watching back the Munster's tries, Cuthbert needs to work on his tackling...

Re: Edinburgh V Munster
John Ryan looks great in the lose! Only Munster forward who is running direct with ball in hand! Don't think I've ever seen the Munster tight 5 offload in contact so much!

Re: Edinburgh V Munster
Cuthbert's tackling is normally strong.
If we can get a lbp from this it will be a miracle.

Ahhh, Edinburgh pulling the classic van in fire trick to catch a breather there.
Re: Edinburgh V Munster
I'm assuming it's a burger van - that's the 2s pitch down there!

FFS Denton... We can cut some slack for playing out of position, but not for being unable to catch!

Made the mistake of checking the score in the laughable belief it might cheer me up.

This is humiliating. So many average players who don't qualify to play for Scotland. What's the point?

This TBP win is exactly what Munster needed. I kind of felt that Munster would hit back hard after last weekends loss.

Did Edinburgh turn up at Murrayfield? They haven't turned up at Meggetland.
So unbelievably squishy in defence...!

With all the love in the world for my Eastern brothers, sometimes watching Edinburgh is more painful than getting Deep Heat in your eye.

Edinburgh clearly saving themselves for next weekend. Operation 'Send Off Laidlaw in Style & Make Glasgow Top' is still on...

Gilchrist has got the right idea. I'm not sure I would want to stay on either.

Re: Edinburgh V Munster
So having the ball passed at your hand as your arms are outstretched to make a tackle is a YC and penalty try, but a kick is only a talking to?! FFS

How can you give the man of the match to someone on a team that have been horsed by 40 points?

Laidlaw is absolutely raging - if everyone in the squad had his determination and desire to win we wouldn't have been horses by 50 points.

Re: Edinburgh V Munster
In the words of Sven-Goran Eriksson "First half good; second half not so good"
I do feel Edinburgh are in the middle of a rebuilding and they actually have the coach who can pull it off. Still not a very good side but Solomons is entitled to point to green shoots and I think once they've had a full pre-season under him you'll begin to see Edinburgh be more competitive with regards to qualifying for the ERcC.
Keep the faith Edinburgh fans.

Re: Edinburgh V Munster
Denton shouldn't tour in the summer. Form doesn't justify it. Beattie and Wilson should tour as the options at 8.
Matt Scott should find a better club, and one that plans to use him in the correct position.
We are back where we started this season, and Solomons should consider his position.
