Pro14 Edinburgh vs Cardiff Blues Sat 23rd

First topic message reminder :



In some amazing scheduling, Edinburgh play Cardiff just hours after Scotland play France and even shorter after Wales take on England.

Whilst this potentially isn't great news for the clubs as players may travel to the Int. games, not play and could be released back to the pro sides.  It is however great news for the fans, with a full day of Rugby to watch.

Teams:
Edinburgh -  will be shafted, we've lost half our team to the national side, along with injuries.
Cardiff - I believe are not as badly impacted by call ups, so might be able to field a near full strength team

Cockers isn't going to be a happy bunny - we were in complete control for 40 minutes then completely and utterly switched off and just stopped playing any form of rugby.

80 mns of our life we won't get back. They don't deserve to qualify playing like that. Blues did not exactly play well, that was entirely self inflicted

Cockers went against form and actually made early substitutions - too can start to see why he doesn't do that now...!

Losing Fife was a real turning point - in hindsight he should have kept VDW at 10 as we lost all shape after that.

Haven't seen any comments from Cockers post match - you know he's really angry when he doesn't say anything!
