So happy today, Munster getting the job done against the Stormers, really could have won by more but dug deep even when trailing and showed they were the better team. To play away to Glasgow, Leinster and the Stormers in the knock out stages is some feat. Most teams would settle for winning...

They did, I think what the commentary was getting at is the Rebels played attacking rugby and have the 4th most points in the comp. Have a better points difference then the other teams competing for 8th place.

Round 1 when we threw the game away against the Force, knew then it would cost us big time not closing out the game.

Was only hos 4th game, thought hos communication was pretty good.

Sorry, was always surprised he was given captaincy with the rest 9f our back row.

Well we all know that's the Rebels strong suit, Watching a home game from home on the couch for the first time in 7 years, stupid kids giving me a cold.

Thought hos capped for Samoa? Was a stupid move that late in the game

Still can't work out how a guy who's not playing starts a fight. Have not watched a full replay yet but sounds like was a good game. Too many cards though. Two best teams in Europe decided by 1 point, remember these teams both played each other in the final last year.

International hockey has the perfect challenge system for rugby, at the next stoppage the captain uses the challenge, can go back as far as you want in that passage of play but the TMO is only allowed to look for the challenged decision. Anything else that happened is not considered. So say you...

I don't know why rugby can't have captains challenge, works in other sports

Surprised Philip is starting, thought he would be coming back off the bench.

Better off giving him meaningful game time then playing him off the bench, 1-2 hours game time and then something goes wrong at RWC and his needed to start a more meaningful game. Ireland 2015 is a horrible example, Ian Madigan example in the Quarter finals.

I expect JOC (James O'Connor) is heading west, Reds banking on there young 10 to lead them.

I'd start Quade against the All blacks and give Gordon the starts against Pumas and Boks. Being only 4 tests for Eddie to prepare for the RWC I wouldn't be worried about results and wins. More that his seeing how his combos are working, think he will go all out against NZ and than trial stuff...

Think it's in England as well, Folau selected in the World team and Joe Marler in the BaaBaas might be interesting for non rugby related history.

The maul would be fine if reffed to the rules, the ball is never passed back when players are reentering the maul for the attacking side. They join over the top of the ball carrier and are never called offside. I was also confused in the Rebels v Tahs game when they were penalized for...

European title means a lot more, it's the problem with fixtures. Semi for URC this week, final for Heineken Cup next week, then the URC final the following.

That was a Leinster third string team, they will win next weekend.

Yes, happy. But not gloating on beating a Leinster side missing most of there stars. They rested a lot for next weeks final of the Heineken Cup.

I can't see the Rebels winning, think the Clan will walk all over us. Carter Gordon is nursing a bruise knee, has been all year so I'd expect him to start and sit out against the Force is our final chances are shot.
