I'm a Stade Toulousain fan. I'm sorry for the result and I think our record of 5 Champions Cup will be joined by Leinster. Anyway, Leinster deserve to join 5 wins because they're an outstanding side and they express a wonderful rugby style. Well done, Leinster: congratulations and best wishes for the Final.
Good to see a non toxic fan, the result regardless of decisions was always looking like a leinster win today which it proved. Leinster will get their 5th star and deservedly sit on top with toulouse once again, real European teams with history, not like that oil club toulon years ago
@@jacobking3211 Why do you have to shoe in your fake god?
Thank you
Dave1071 Merci beaucoup monsieur 👍
@@darraghtormey1500 : thank you sir. I'm a french-italian rugby supporter but I'm, most of all, a rugby lover. Currently, irish rugby is the best. It would be great to see in St.Denis, by the end of october, a RWC final between France and Ireland.
Would love to commend the commentator, he’s multifaceted - he does all sports but his passion for rugby shone through here. Showed a good level of passion throughout
tru
Sorry I can't agree. Yes he's getting better to be fair to him . But I feel he goes off talking about things at the wrong time in games trying to show he knows things about a player and then falls behind the play. It's the pundits job to talk about that stuff in down time in games not the Commentator. A good Commentator's job is to keep you informed on is to keep you informed on what's happening on the pitch you should be able to leave the room and listen and know what's going on and where on the pitch the game is ! Not come back in the room and have missed 10 passes or 30 metres of play. But hopefully he keeps learning 🙏 for example for the first Try he mentioned Jack Willis in the move and feels he has to say who had a Difficult 6 nations . But while he's saying that the move is getting closer to a try but he's missing Excitement of the build-up because he's decided to bring up the player had a Difficult 6 nations which has nothing to do to do with the game or move at that time..
to me (a supporter of neither side), the game was a lot closer than the scoreline suggested and I felt that some crucial decisions went in Leinster's favour, more than Toulouse that could have changed the outcome of the game.
For me - 3:24, Porter does not come through the middle of the maul, just hangs on the side/looses bind early, therefore offside when pressuring Toulouse 22, which would disallow the try that Leinster score just afterwards.
This puts the game at 20 - 7 and when Toulouse score the next try, it would go to 20 - 14 and both teams are still chasing the win, which changes the dynamic of the game significantly.
Porter does take the player over the vertical, and at the very least should have been checked by the TMO, and probably should have been a yellow card. Which again changes the dynamic further. And puts a lot more pressure on Leinster and opens the game up for Toulouse. (Who would have been only a converted try behind if previous try was disallowed). Even as it stood, 2 scores behind against 14, you would fancy Toulouse putting scores on the board.
And then we come to the second yellow. For me there's nothing in it. Wayne Barnes is standing right in front of it and doesn't bat an eyelid. VDF is coming in high and aggressive. For me it's just a rugby incident, play on. At this point the game is ruined. Leinster get an attacking platform and an extra man, and score a try right away. At this level of competition, any advantage is massive and Leinster go on to profit from it.
On a side note, I felt Toulouse were stronger in the scrums too, but did not seem to get as many penalties as they should have until later in the game, some even given to Leinster that I felt could have gone to Toulouse.
Toulouse were overall not as slick as they could have been when they lost their centre early in the game and Dupont had to act as a floater. This made a big difference in the game. Overall Leinster played well, but not as well as the scoreline suggested. It small differences at this level that wins games, and it home advantage seems to sway referees more often than not.
I just a rugby fan, I've played rugby to a high level and just want to see a good and fair game. I understand that referees cannot get every decision right, but inconsistency in refereeing at the moment is frustrating.
There's an awful lot of ifs and buts there to factor in and somehow conjure a Toulouse win. Even with such detailed analsys from someone with such an illustrious rugby pedigree as yourself it smacks of a one sided, biased commentary with total disregard and lack of appreciation for Leinster's all round supeiority in most facets of the match. But you are entitled to your opinion.
@@elsmid I think what Leinster do well is ride the line between being penalised or not, they push the boundaries and blur the lines between what is foul play or not, and get away with it more than other teams. If you "appreciate" that then then thats your opinion
Wow! My goodness... You are right. I had not noticed this. Porter seems to have gotten away with a lot in that game...
@@elsmid When you look at the statistics, Toulouse is superior. I think it's you who is biased. 4 trials in superiority of numbers. It's not a detail. Toulouse scores its tries at 15 against 15.
Leinster have all the money in the world and all the referees in their pocket. This is clearly a Hibernian conspiracy.
Appreciate the highlights, I was at Twickenham yesterday so missed most of the match live. Cautiously optimistic for the final
naw la rochelle will win
As an outsider...well done Leinster....comiserations Toulouse ✌🇿🇦
Thank you 👍
Lol, Leinster don’t have to rely on him, never did.
You know we're living in loopy times when people think an English referee is rigging games for an Irish team
as a toulouse fan leinster played better than us , congrats and goog luck for the final !
As a leinster fan I want to say congrats to you for a fair play comment, to much whinging on here
thx, good look in the top14
Thank you, wish you the very best in the Top 14
Thank you for showing some class instead of whinging . Toulouse are a very good team played well but need to get their discipline sorted out .Crazy to play Dupont out of position.
Merci beaucoup monsieur. Bonne chance a la Top14.
From a Toulouse fan
We can't blame all the day the ref
The reason of the defeat is the bad game of Ramos ,Graou and the stupidity of the move by Neti that killed the last hope for us
It's a shame but the Leinster is still the best rugby team of Europe and they deserved the win
As a french now I hope the victory of La Rochelle against Exeter and against the Leinster
But in the Aviva Stadium that will be very complicated lol
Ramos cost you any chance at the game. Between gifting Leinster a lineout with that weird decision to catch and jump out of touch and then a ridiculous intercept attempt, he gave Leinster all the momentum. I think he is an unreal and exciting player,, but he had an afternoon to forget to be sure.
Honest response from a supporter of Toulouse, well said. I don't honestly know what caused that Toulouse strategy. A bit bizarre. So much expectation of a clash worthy of two fantastic teams. Didn't materialise
The reason mayby lenister better
@@patrickhorgan8389 The loss of Barassi actually. We were in a good position and we lost him. With a 6-2 bench that was hard as Dupont was playing 10, Graou not that great etc. And all started when Ramos did messy (tried to save a touch and to intercept)...
@@frenchflair7699 how dare Leo Cullen choose a 6-2 bench for Toulouse. Yet more evidence of Leinster skullduggery and clear bias towards them in the competition. Ramos' deliberate knock on was the secod one ye had committed and Barnes was 100 percent right to shut that nonsense down right away.
James ryan is awesome
James Ryan is the warhorse
@@karlosdeevs beillent my fave player
VDF deserves an oscar for his performance at 5:03
It was still a yellow card nonetheless and leinster were miles the better team
@@mac8669 we must have been watching a different game
.... turning rugby into soccer
It was a blatant yellow nonetheless
I was in the stadium, there was a loud slap off the incident that caused the whole stadium to wince. Even the french family behind me were livid as soon as it happened, before it even got called back they had their heads in their hands. I was impressed van der flier got up tbh
Wow what a game a big shout out to Wayne Barnes and his team they had to make some crucial decisions today Potential red card was a big factor in this game and they got it spot on with yellow what on earth Went through Thomas Ramos mind to do that I am stunned and shocked that a full-fledged international would do such a thing like that with his experience
Yh, also very unprofessional from Ramos not to take the last conversion srsly. As a player you’re drilled to give your everything & all until the final blow..
@@karlosdeevs So true he was very unprofessional And his yellow card A player of his quality should not be making those mistakes OK you can get caught up in the heat of the moment in a big game like this but still you should know the rules just reading some of the comments everyone is criticizing Wayne Barnes he had a lot on his plate especially The yellow or red card decision everyone quick to criticize him what would they do if they was in his shoes that’s when I want to know what they crack under pressure and give a red or did what he done and sort it out and give the right decision my opinion he did do the right decision and give a yellow
Some side well done 👏
Does anyone know the name of the track played in the Aviva just before the players come out? It's quite heavy and sounds electronic, can't seem to find it anywhere!
The no card about the dump tackle from Leinster was crazy.
Barnes as usual
Shocking that, clear tipping. Leinster were gonna win no doubt, but that was a yellow at least.

Not only have teams realised that playing slow dirty rugby is how to beat Leinster but the refs have also realised this and now pay more attention to it. At the same time leinster dont need lowe,sexton,henshaw,kelleher or osborne to beat these teams which is still quite remarkable. Ref made some wrong decisions on both sides but at the end of the day its not like leinster ran away with it in the end they dominated from the get go.
@@mkeibergin3775I think they missed Lowe badly .
Ireland 6 nation European champions, now hopefully Leinster become European club champions. Not bad for a small country with only 4.8 million people, I’m very proud or Eire hope all you Irish ☘️ folk are too.
Sorry, you got your numbers wrong. The population of Ireland (as of latest available official figures) is just over 7 million, with 5.1 million in Eire (Republic of Ireland) and just over 1.9 million in Northern Ireland. So we’re slowly getting back up there towards pre famine numbers of 9 million. But yes you are quite correct in principle regarding the relatively small population of this island producing the number 1 rugby team in the world!
@@Driver2616 population is a red herring, regardless rugby is not even the national sport nor in the top 3 most popular sports in Ireland , with a small registered professional players pool to choose from relative to the other nations, so it's absolutely a miracle that Ireland should be the creme ala creme of international rugby and now possibly Leinster in club rug t
Shane:
Rugby is the BIGGEST PROFESSIONAL Sport in Ireland.
Gaelic Football and Hurling are strictly Amateur, While Soccer Football is Part time,
Therefore it is logical for Irish teams to be regular contenders for the European Club Rugby Cup !!
woohoo maybe this year you can get past quarterfinals at WC
Too bad you have to cheat to win a match.😢
Congratulation !
Many thanks
Meafou really is something special once France get him their team will be even scarier
Will get found out in international rugby
@@goodboydaz0494 he was basically against ireland today tho ? 🤣
Who
He got battered today
@@DM-rp9ik he never Toulouse did
English and a Sale Sharks fan so no loyalty other than a love of this game, great crowd, great stadium and two top of the drawer teams, Leinster were clinical, yellow cards were yellow in any game and they you cannot give a team like Leinster a 20 minute spell against 14 men - ouch.
A more disciplined Toulouse team would have done better, a closer contest perhaps but I think Leinster would have had the upper hand. A fifth star beckons!
And of course no red or even yellow card for Porter for his tackle on Mallia just before Meafou try. There is a special rule allowing such tackles on froggies I presume like there is a rule allowing kiwis flankers to defend off side a full half time when they are playing a WC final at home vs Froggies?
@@unaagnew6623 if you want a hint on the answer look at the score during the 60 minutes both teams were with 15 players on the pitch. Would also have been interesting to see how the Irish would have manage to play with one player less but the referee decided that the tip tackle by Porter was legitimate after all why should we protect a player of a froggies team.
@@jeromeh7985 it seems to me the general view is that Porter was lucky not to have a card of some colour but as an English neutral I think you would struggle to make a case to a supporter of Leinster that an English referee would do them any favours.
@@jeromeh7985 It was clearly not a red - penalty only or yellow. One missed call isn't something to cry about though...
No card for.the Leinster just before the half time. Wayne Barnes MAN OF THE MATCH. well done EPCR as usual.
Stop crying numpty
@Belfast Blue Nah that 2nd card was outrageous.
For the blind people out there who think Porter tackle was not "past the horizontal" here it is at 4:00
Do what the TMO could not bother to do, have the replay working, have your pause button working.
You see the legs of the winger above his arse? Yeah that's considered PAST HORIZONTAL. Your feet go 11-12 o'clock that's pretty past horizontal if you can read your watch. Above 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock that's horizontal. The winger's legs were at 11- to 12 o'clock, that's vertical upside down aka DANGEROUS TACKLE. And then there is the landing, normally the tackler must show that he attempted to slow down the impact onto the ground... yeah that one is even worst. Not only did Porter lift that winger way above "past horizontal", he absolutely smashed him onto the ground. It is like he tried to clean himself off that winger. He is going to be suspended, there is no other way.
Yep but too late for Toulouse. Their yellow cards cost them dearly but WB wanted to appease the Irish
@@kevinpillay6103 Agreed.
Landed on his back
All sour grapes from French fans,Leinster were classy and can only play what’s in front of them and with the ref their given on the day.Barnes is no friend of Leinster / Irish rugby,when I was hoping for jaco peyper to be the ref that says it all about barnes.if Toulouse were better than Leinster they should have proven it by scoring try’s.stop blaming barnes and look elsewhere….maybe at your coach,who went heavy on forwards on the bench eating the best scrum half in the world at out half crazy stuff
@@amantedellopera1681 Cannot disagree, the bench strategy proved costly, but Toulouse was up when Porter did his tip tackle, so had the ref shown consistency, we might have seen a closer result, we will never know.
As a Toulouse fan, I am disappointed. But, despite the early try, Toulouse needed more intensity in the contacts after this. They recovered at the start of the second half. But playing one man down for 20mns, and the injury of Barassi creating a reshuffle of the backs, was a terrible mountain to climb. Congrats Leinster!
Merci beaucoup. Thank you for your intelligent and respectful comments. Good luck in your Top14.
je suis d'accord sauf pour le deuxieme jaune.
Nicely done Leinster 👍, but Barnes had a shocker again , but yeah
I mean it could have been a red for that headbutt but OK.....
Le joueur du Leinster lui fonce dessus comme un débile et ensuite simule comme un crétin le coup de tête est la …. Mais franchement c’est comme foncer dans un panneau publicitaire tête la première ça n’a aucun sens . Même dans le jeux le joueur de Leinster ne pouvait rien attendre de son action kamikaze…. Vraiment ridicule ….
Exactement, et il y vient deux fois en plus.. comme s’il cherchait la faute.
De plus le plaquage cathédrale devant l’arbitre avant l’essai de de M. Meafou oublié ou volontairement ignoré..
Le Leinster est une grande équipe, il n’y a rien à dire comme le déclare A. Dupont, mais c’est pénible de relever certains faits de jeu ou il n’y a pas d’équité dans l’arbitrage..
Mais c’est comme ça.
Heureusement le TFC a redonné le sourire au public toulousain et plus largement à l’occitanie, et maintenant tous derrière Toulon et La Rochelle..
Cordialement.
win = we're the better team
lose = refs are bad
@@jeanmichelreneredbeans4104your not allowed lead with the head.
Barnes had an absolute shocker
When does he not have a shocker? My least favourite ref.
Par for course.
So did the french team
Barnes always has a shocker, he is a pompous prick, who needs to be shown the door
Nonsense
I usually like Barns but he did his best to spoil two great teams.
Shot to the head on 30 seconds tip tackle on 4:05 and VDF should have been the one walking off for a rest.
Lienster don't have any weakness and were pretty daunting for their next victim.
Rodrigue Neti you mean. Should’ve taken an early shower immediately after head butting Vdf’s throat & jaw..
Leinster were slightly lucky yes but they were still the better team. Would have been closer but they were on it today with some big omissions
They just took advantage of the ramos yellow card and scored 20 points during the 10 mins
Leinster were better and would have won for sure. But not by this margin. It’s a pity that such quality game have to be ruined by poor referring. But what a team
@@FDN10 ‘just took advantage’ makes it sound like that was easy? Wasn’t Leinster fault he slapped the ball out of play. Think Leinster have scored 130 points against teams with yellow cards in this tournament alone, that’s not luck
@@08padam 100% agree. Really didn’t think the last yellow was a yellow at all, but still think they would have won regardless. Being that far up, at home, will always lead to a drop off and Toulouse are too good of a team to not have a purple patch
@@pityfool23 yeah that last yellow was harsh. Neti was stupid and deserved a yellow, but so did VDF for coming in with speed shoulder first. And then he scores on the following maul 8 forward vs 7 and the game was over. But I am impressed at how GOOD Leinster are when the other team is missing a player. It makes no sense to me they seem to have a 110% chance of scoring haha
Also Graou had a terrible terrible game, costing at least 14 points for Toulouse (what he did on Sheenan’s try was priceless I couldn’t stop laughing)
Merci monsieur l’arbitre. 2 jaunes fantômes
And thank you to Ramos and Neti for making very rash and uncalled for decisions..
Nothing tastier than French salt! Maybe read the laws when you've finished crying
As a Durban Sharks fan, I now fear that we have to face Leinster Next week 🤣🤣🤣 But great game all round, Tough one for Tolouse but I'm sure that they will bounce back, and Congratutations to Leinster
Leinster will mix the team up. Sharks will not face the HC side. It will be more the URC side. Injury before HC final to key players ( JVDF ; Ringrose ; Keenan ; Furlong; Gibson Park) will be at top of Leinster management minds. It’s a balancing act . Be interesting to see team selection.
You'll face a weaker side due to rotation
@@tomf1dublin1 That's true, but still expecting a good team to turn up, besides the Sharks are playing away for the rest of the Playoffs either way
@@zombievikinggaming4258 True but I'm still expecting Leinster to turn up
@@bodybagnathanieldonato8241 should be a great weekend of rugby . Can’t think of any of the matches where you can absolutely pick a winner
Merci Barnes !
you can thank Ugo Mola’s bonkers decision to name a 6-2 bench which cost Toulouse’s backline dearly after Barassi went of injured. 1 of many costly errors by ST as Dupont & Ramos noted later..
It would have made no difference what referee, refed this match, Toulouse simply were not ever going to win.
why everyone says the french only blame the referee?? we don't blame the referee he made small mistakes ok but we're just disappointed with this defeat that's all, congratulations to leinster it was good play from them good luck to you in this final 🤝
Because every French person here (apart from you) is blaming the referee..
@@benvaughan3392 that's not true
@@revertnicolas5977 yh, 2 from nearly 200
To be honest most Irish would wish Barnes did not exist, it is sad that he is considered to be the top ref in world rugby, but at the end of the day Leinster deserved the win. Thank you from a Leinster man for a great game, always a pleasure to host Toulouse and their fans.
@@benvaughan3392 Would you say the referee'ing was good during the match ? Too many misses, the fact that referee was shit doesn't mean you guys didn't deserve to beats us. It just spoiled everything for us, there was no possible fighting back, imagine porter and vdf each get a yellow, that match would have been a nail biter now.
Vdf entered a ruck carelessly and made contact with Toulouse players head. Does this now warrant a red for vdf?
100% Red for VDF. Sick of this soccer BS from Ireland all the time. Jonny Sexton is the worst.

@@powerbite92 To quote that great cad, Terry Thomas, 'Hard Cheese'....

@@powerbite92 wow - are you a scriptwriter for fiction movies ?
Congrats to Leinster,well deserved win!!
Thank you respect from Ireland 🇮🇪 🙏
Congrats to Leinster ! The better of the two won. Stupid errors by Ramos and Neti, plus a poor Graou who isn't accostumed to play games of that intensity cost Toulouse the game (😢). Some put fowards Barnes as a reason for loosing but when your opponent gets 30 points over you that's not a valid debate.
Kolbe was the man in toulouse squad, not paying same money RC toulon give him was a big mistake of Toulouse since he left
Although I agree they have been lacking a world class winger since Kolbe left, they still have world class players everywhere in the team and still remain as one of the last club with healthy finances and an extremely strong team and staff.
Barnes killed the match.
Tristandepierre:
Leinster killed the match !!
Stop trying to knock David Icke off his throne as the king of conspiracy theories!!
Not shown here but I reckon things started to unravel for ST when Ramos caught a clearing kick and stepped on the sideline. Just after that lineout he made the knock-on he was binned for, Leinster scored 2 tries and there was no stopping them anymore.
Is Toulouse the same Team Nayacalevu and Waqaniqolo playing for???Did not see them!!!
Barnes should never be able to referee another irish game again first the head to head against France and now a deliberate headbutt is a yellow against toulouse

Soccers Hollywood antics making its way into rugby 😔
Yep VDF doing his best impression of a footballer . Disgraceful behaviour from so called strong men. Porter tackle no review even though was so aggressive and meant to hurt an opponent
Sick of seeing it. And teh Irish are the worst offenders. Well, actually.. maybe the French are just as bad (lol) .
Yes rugby needs NZ loser boys headbutt tactics. 😂😂
Who cares what kiwis think.
AshboNZ:
And Loony Bin Conspiracy Theories makings it's way into the comments.
Face Facts Boyeen , Leinster guillotined the French side .
To my eyes, that VDF incident should've been a yellow for both, but that's the only controversial call I can spot.
VDF needs to be cited and a lengthy ban. Fouling nete is one thing but "buying" the card .. no place in rugby.
+ harsh yellow card for Ramos + no yellow (maybe red) card for Porter's tip (and delayed) tackle on Mallia.
Barnes🤡, bis repetita.
VdF did nothing wrong. However, Porter might reasonably have been carded for separate incident
The French player headbutted him and you think he should have been carded? Are you delusional?
@@fabien2972 The Ramos card wasn't harsh, that's the punishment for a deliberate knockon, the tip could have been a yellow but was probably correctly penalty only (no danger, not above the horizontal, no dump)
Anyone know if a player can be cited for dangerous play that wasn't picked up / penalised during a match? I'm just wondering if Porter is going to miss the final...
doubt it, Mallia the kid only landed on his bottom
Yes, can definitely be cited post match. But I don't think Porter will be
Eh.. more like Rodrigue Neti for his blatant headbutt on Vdf
It was penalty only, maybe a yellow at worst. Why would there be a citing for that?
Why was vd Flier not given a red/yellow? Ran into opposing player and hitting/connecting opposing player’s head with his shoulder?
Because Irish always get a few free rides when Barnes whistles them against French teams.
He runs towards the ruck, presumably trying to stop the caterpillar, the French player then changes position and smacks his shoulder into Josh vdF's head. Lucky it was only yellow
I'm not sure a lot of people in these comments understand what "bias" means. Why would Wayne Barnes, an Englishman, be biased to an Irish team? 😅
Thats just you not getting it. You dont know how the Powers that Be Work and you dont know how Rugby authorities work.. tell me, do you know what the term "Castle Catholic" means when applied to some Leinstermen?
French teams will always get yellows away from home as they targeted by British refs . Those 2 yellows costs Toulouse. Porter no yellow wow.
@powerbite92 As a leinsterman of catholic stock, yes, I do know the term. I also know how stupid one has to be, and frankly xenophobic, to apply it to Irish people in the 21st century. Also, the first yellow cynically prevented a try, and Neti did the most obvious head butting motion twice, and just because he failed to land on the head, doesn't mean it isn't a yellow. It isn't a red, but it is a yellow. Those are clear day, as was as was the Antonio RED that was deemed a yellow by the very same "biased" Wayne Barnes All you have is the Porter incident, and given that there were two incidents, there is a case for a yellow, but nothing more. Toulouse wouldn't have pulled it back anyway, they were 17 down.
@@justagame101 Neti’s headbutt on Vdf was red-worthy too in that case 🔴
@karl6015 What was weird about that decision was that when the ref was talking to the tmo, he described his final decision as basically being that he make a bit of head contact, but there was no "intention", whereas I think it was blatantly intended, but missed the head twice. I mean, who clears out a ruck with their head? I think it could be a red, but I could see someone making a letter-of-the-law decision that given there was little head content, that it should only be yellow. I also have seen many people arguing that vdf was diving and acting, as though he was a footballer like Neymar or something. He grappled down, and there was zero attempt to wrap. Imagine that had happened to a French player in Toulouse. Would they be arguing that their own player was acting and wasn't fouled? Of course not, because, like every fan of every team, there is bias. But it seems more extreme from french fans. THAT's what bias is.
leinster beated us bad. this team is fantastic, makes no mistakes, with high level combinations. but why no red card for leinster?
The Irish are constantly acting and 'buying' cards from their opponents. Sexton is the master of this..
B-cuz Rodrigue Neti’s offence was the most sinister and was hella lucky not to receive a red. Nobody wants to see a sending off, but that challenge was dangerous..
@@karlosdeevs the red card was on the illegal tackle during the second try of toulouse.
The neti's move was stupid and the yellow legit
You mean for Porter’s ‘tackle’? Personally think it was a yellow card & he was v lucky not to be penalised
Red for what? Are you delusional?
The histrionics not a good look for JVDF but Neti was asking for trouble.
Always amazed that professional players can lose it and fall into such obvious traps!
Leinster fans remember this only the semi final, you haven't won anything yet!

I didn’t watch the match but reading the late and tip tackle on Malia is not a Yellow is bonkers… Wayne Barnes is right there, clearly on the back, not the neck or head, dropped just before the ground that’s text book yellow.
Now for the Neti yellow card, the head movement is stupid and warrants the card. However, that movement comes as a brace response to the oncoming contact of a tucked arm
Ahhh the old "brace response" ah yeah.That's all ok then. Thanks for that, Sherlock.
You didn’t watch the match 😂 so why are you commenting?
Late tackle, legs above the horizontal, drops him high, 5m from your own try line. if that’s not a yellow I don’t know what is
@@08padam Writing nonsense is a yellow card offence
Im struggling to make sense of the yellow card... it just doesnt make sense. He had to brace. He even went lower with his head to avoid head on head. Wtf is this
When I saw Barnes, I knew we weren't going to win. Then, what makes us lose the match is the management of Barassi's exit. Graou in the scrum, it was a disaster (poor thing). It would have been necessary to put Retière back, Ramos in 10 and Ntamack in 3./4 and leave Dupont in the fray. At that time of the game for Graou it was too hot. He was then able to level up, but the gap was made. And in 10, Ramos' creativity might have made it possible to come back. In short, a match that changed in a very short time. A nightmare !

Why did the French player get a card when charged at in the ruck?
For a blatant headbutt...
Leinster probably were a bit lucky with the ref but that tends to happen with the home team . However, they were significantly the better team and the score is justified.
Lucky how? Do you think there was any doubts about the yellow cards???
@@jameskinahan2052 No, but Porter probably should have got a yellow for his tip tapple. Don't get me wrong Leinster would more than likely have won well even without any cards for Toulouse.
Am I missing something or are some Toulouse fans being outrageous? I just can’t comprehend how a committed tackle that doesn’t go past the horizontal supposedly warrants a ‘red card’, while the two yellow cards for Toulouse are apparently completely unfounded?
Well Porter also tackled a guy without the ball ... that's already a yellow card, and then he lifted the Toulouse's player who fell on his upper back ... that's also an easy yellow to me
Yellow + yellow is kind of red no ?
And the the 2nd yellow card for Toulouse is a bit soft in my opinion
I don’t know how many are actually Toulouse fans. Some random French fans who always blame the ref and quite a few English who can’t abide by an Irish team doing well.
@@luccornic9980 On the Porter tackle - am I right in saying that both incidents you mention (the tackle off the ball and the dump) take place in the same incident at 37 mins? If so, is there not an argument for (1) him already being committed to the tackle on 14 (therefore it not being a tackle off the ball and not warranting any yellow card - which wouldn’t usually be a yellow card anyways) and (2) the tackle not going past the horizontal, so not warranting a yellow card? I’m not sure of rules regarding dump tackles, but I don’t ever recall seeing a yellow card for a dump tackle that doesn’t past the horizontal.
On the VDF incident, I think it’s fair to say it was a bit soft. In my eyes it was a yellow, but I can see why you would think otherwise.
In any case, I really don’t think the above incidents can at all correlate to Toulouse being robbed/Leinster being lucky. Outside of the yellow cards, Toulouse were still outplayed. It doesn’t say a whole lot of good for a team if two yellow cards means shipping 28 points. One man down shouldn’t lead to that concession for a top quality side.
@@luccornic9980 that 2nd yellow could have been a red made deliberate contact with the head wasnt an acidental slide up in contact. Either way it was stupid got benifit of the doubt but killed off what little chance Toulouse had left
@@luccornic99802nd yellow was closer to a red than no card
it was so hard for toulouse. Two yellow cards it's too much (The Referre forgot one for leinster). I support La Rochelle. Yes leinster is the best team in Europe, their level is regular , it's the perfection. BUT La Rochelle (without any yellow card) will promise you a hard challenge et we will come at Dublin to win. La Rochelle don't afraid of anyone.

"Neti stands his ground here".
That's it. One of the most ridiculous decisions I've seen on a rugby pitch.
5:00 not a good look for rugby. Both players should have been yellow carded I think. What was the static player supposed to do. Von der flyer literally threw himself at head level... since when is the static guy coping for someone's reckless movement? Then comes the comedian act from the Irish 7, that was all very silly. Worthy of an actor guile award.
Van der Flier fouled Nete and then simulated to buy the card. He should be cited and a lengthy ban.
Well done to Leinster for this win but we can have regrets about losing Barassi so early which completely unbalances the game (Dupont is not a 10 and Graou doesn't have the level for such games yet. It's a pity because on a 15 v 15 opposition we win 22-19 and the yellows are a bit generous (Ramos is, I think, capable of intercepting + we're 20m from our line so at no time that cancels out a potential try, and Neti certainly goes down but Van der Flier also goes over and fakes too much...)
Toulouse were just second best and had no chance of winning that game. It was like a rerun of the same semi final last year. All of the res5 is just wishful thinking. Once Leinster turned on the class they powered ahead.
The 6-2 split was as Toulouse knew they couldnt live with Leinsters pace for 80mins needed the extra forward gambed on it and it backfired. The complete implosion of dealing with that is crazy surly there was a plan for lsoing a back.
The first yellow would have been a try without the deliberate slap no chance of catching that lucky it wasnt a penalty try.
"we're 20m from our line so at no time that cancels out a potential try," so no team can score from 20m out? That pass goes to hand without the knock from Ramos try all day long. The 2nd yellow was a sign pressure got to them lost the head it was stupid pointless and deliberate head contact bit like Haouas v scotland in the 6 nations just stupid lack of disipline lets see with pressure of the world cup how many more red mist moments undo France
VDF committed two penalty offences in 5 seconds. I mean what did Nete do? Hunched up as VDF ran at his head. Then VDF did a Jonny Sexton and dived like a football player. Simulation. VDF should be cited and banned. We cant have this soccer BS creeping into our game.. and its biggest proponents? The Irish! The Irish of ALL people doing soccer dives like this.

Turned a good attacking position fron the 50-22 into a Leinster try and left his team a man down for 10mins not the refs fault he did it. Toulouse have him to blame for killing off any chance they had of winning it from there
Neutral fan here. So van der Flier runs into a ruck to clear it, lowering his body position as he does so. Toulouse #17, stationary and bound to the ruck braces for impact from the incoming van der Flier, and head on neck contact is made. And Toulouse get the yellow card?! How?! This is madness. Barnes is completely overrated as a referee.

Congratulations to Leinster, great victory ! I think the reason why Barnes didn't gave a yellow card to Porter is why Mallia stand up just after while Van der Flier toke his head in the hands (a bit ridiculously), to obtain exactly what he was expecting. That the game, not very fair but french players did the same during other games so no lessons to give.
I hope La Rochelle will reach the final and beat Leinster again. Good game anyway
Did you actually see what led up to Neti’s challenge on Vdf? The guy straight up head butted him in the jaw and neck area, i’m sure you yourself would react similar: hand on head and falling down in a heap.. And Porter’s tackle was ugly but legal, Mallia lands on his bottom and lower-back.
Come on Van Der Flier is a big warrior, during the game he is in the middle of a lot of more painful contacts. With Neti he is arguing and looks for the contact. The yellow card is deserved, Van Der Flier was smarter and a but vicious on this one.
From what I see Porter did a spare tackle on Mallia which is prohibited. He felts on his back so it's a yellow card to me. Anyway not looking for an argue, every one have is one advice.
I can read many supporters blaming Wayne Barnes for the result, which I can fully understand as a Toulouse supporter. But the first ones to be blamed are Toulouse players themselves. There is no way you can win such a game with two yellow cards, you need to keep some calm and composure and they didn't. Too many mistakes from Toulouse's side. More than blaming the ref, I am really upset with the way the game went, and how stupid our team was at some key moments. I still feel Toulouse gave the win to Leinster, because they could really win it, not like last year. And this could not have happened after losing to them already 2 times in the last 3 years. Congrats to Leinster; and to the Toulouse squad: please, try to finally learn the lesson!

Let's get this straight first Leinster were worthy winners however what is the point of the TMO if they can't see that, Barnes didn't give the French much but Toulouse didn't help themselves either infact I was a bit disappointed in their performance but Leinster are clearly the best team in Europe and maybe the world currently,. I've said this many times before that the best teams whether at international level or club level are refereed more leniently at the breakdown and I've been watching rugby for 50 years and nothing has changed. You aren't allowed to go off your feet when clearing out at a breakdown according to the laws of the game but the law isn't applied consistently whether during a match or equally for all teams. This isn't a point about this match particularly it is an observation over a long period of time and is giving the better teams an advantage they do not need.
No they are not the best team in the World just yet. Beating Toulouse in the semis twice don't make you the best team, unless you had beaten Stade Rochelais and the Stormers last year. They are the current Champions Cup and URC holders. Win the final and URC like Toulouse did with back to back European and National trophies and then Leinster will be indeed the best franchise in the World. Trophies tell the story in the end.

Leinster was the best team on the field but the refereeing has helped them for a few years.
To answer your question - play continued and Toulouse scored a try . There was no request to go back and look at tackle . I’m not sure but, TMO might have looked at it and deemed it to be only a penalty and , as Toulouse scored a try there was no extra benefit accruing to Toulouse . That’s my guess as look at tackle again - tackle a man without ball. I did not think it was above horizontal .
De plus ce qui m’agace c’est la fâcheuse tendance de l’Irlande et du Leinster à polluer les rucks en se couchant sur le porteur de balle pendant une heure ….. il va vraiment falloir remédier à ça , c’est de la pure triche , la première mi temps il n’y avait que ça ….

They perfectly took advantage of Toulouse Yellow cards advantages scoring 28 of their 40 points.

@@cwoods2658 Does bad faith is part of Irish DNA ? 😂 To make believe Barnes had the best match is the best joke of the day. Congratulations.
Not only have teams realised that playing slow dirty rugby is how to beat Leinster but the refs have also realised this and now pay more attention to it. At the same time leinster dont need lowe,sexton,henshaw,kelleher or osborne to beat these teams which is still quite remarkable. Ref made some wrong decisions on both sides but at the end of the day its not like leinster ran away with it in the end they dominated from the get go.
Well so far they have not beaten Stade Rochelais, the Bulls nor the Stormers. The ref played a part no doubt, Leinster scored 3 tries when Toulouse were one man down now having said that Ugo Mola will have to learn from this:
1/ Toulouse should know how to defend with one man down at this level
2/ Toulouse should have a utility back on the bench at all time, the loss of Barassi proved as costly as the refereeing.
Lots of lessons to learn from Fabien Galthie and Shaun Edwards. Refereeing will play a role at the World Cup no doubt. Players will dive in the ruck, play the ball off their feet and will get away unpunished, players will and will not be red carded for the exact same offense, we have seen so much inconsistency, teams will have to be absolutely prepared in defense to cope with the possible loss of a player. Porter should have seen red, there is no argument here but that's not where the game was lost.
Shame the game got screwed by so many unfair referee decisions. Not sure the outcome would have been very different given how talented and efficient Leinster is but at least we Toulouse fans wouldn't have the bitter taste of injustice in our mouth and accept defeat more willingly.
If you can't accept defeat when being smashed by 20 points after Leinster emptied the bench with 15 minutes to go and you got a consolation try at the end, I don't know when you will. But you're welcome back next year to lose and cry again.
@@Camcolito as said the outcome may have been the same but defeat is easier to accept when you feel the refereeing is balanced.

Well played at the leinster victory well deserved too much forward on our side, Ramos and ntamack did not respond present and especially 2 yellow card that we could have largely avoided when at the arbitration he was pretty bad of the Irish player who plunges into the ruck, who illegally clearing or enters on the side of the ruck and high tackle on malia that have not been penalized
