My grandson is playing in a curtain raiser to Leicester Tigers & Bristol Bears tomorrow, U10’s. Prize giving at halftime. Brilliant way to encourage kids. 👍👏👏
Your username threw me off a little bit. i thought i found fellow Indonesian here, turn out i was wrong hahaha.
Best time of year for urc, points are so close
How great is European rugby at the moment 👏🏻👏🏻
Let's hope Munster have full squad this weekend.
Glasgow fan, decent season, wanted to leave a comment for the algorithm
In my mind as a Embra fan...we might not make top 8!!!
(Leinster fan) - Great game last night in Belfast. great to see Ulster win this important game against Benneton and great tv coverage both on BBCNI & TG4. Wonderfull support for home provinces. In the Premiership, great to see Bath in 2nd place and of course Northampton at the top. Got my tickets for Croke Park next week!!!!
7 teams in Top 14, 8 teams in URC, 4 teams in The Premiership. This makes 19 teams qualify for the Championship. And a single team from Challengers Cup. 20 teams looks good, much much easier for the group stages in next year’s Champions Cup.
This is very very interesting, there is jeopardy everywhere, which I like, no dead rubbers as yet.
Be there for Munster v Connacht and Ulster. Tight until the end
Quins Vs Saints will be a crazy game tomorrow, think Quins will edge it but the score could be literally anything
I think quins have 2 advantages. 1 they are "at home" (although it's Twickenham, not the stoop).
And 2, they need it more.
However in saints is favour, because quins needed it more, they've put their strongest team out for the 3rd game in a row. Saints have been able to rotate, meaning they will face a fresh courtney Lawes, Ludlam, Fin Smith, ollie Slightholme and tommy Freeman.
There's still rotation in the side for saints, Lockett and Litchfield wouldn't start at full strength but aside from that, it's very strong.
At a neutral venue (which Twickenham sort of is) I back that northampton side over that fatigued quins side.
Where saints are, the attitude is "win every game". Play offs aren't nailed down and home advantage is massive.
Northampton by 3.
@@AlfredTheGreatestEver I don’t disagree with anything you’ve mentioned there, I think out of all those points u made fatigue for Quins will probably be the biggest factor. One thing I’ll say is that with the exception of Launchbury this would probably be Quins starting XV so on there day I’d fancy them to go at least toe to toe with any English side
@@GoldenGoalposts totally agree about the strength of this quins side and I don't think the gap between Launchbury and Herbst is that big.
I think it's the best 2 teams in the league at the moment.
The game will be decided between half time and minute 60.
Saints have blown away sides in the second half of games (basically every game since saracens). That's when the fatigue will be heaviest for quins, with almost no changes for 4 games on the trot.
It's a coincidence toss but for me the needle tips towards northampton, the squad is too good and the form is ridiculously good.
Also, bare with my complete hubris for a moment, it feels like the ball is bouncing exactly how saints want it to.
Munster having so many injury issues, the Bulls throwing in the towel, leinster having to spend 2 weeks in SA before the semi final, and quins having to push for every game leading to fatigue. It feels like the positive feedback loop of "good things are happening" looking like destiny, is happening for Saints. What I just said could be total bollocks BTW, but it's what it feels like.
I’m heading there. Hope it’s a cracker. Two very attractive sides with amazing English talent. Should be a corker. In a way I want Quims to win as would like to see them in the playoffs, so I’m in a no lose situation!
@@AlfredTheGreatestEver it was a tight game, ultimately I do think Quins deserved it but it was tighter than the scoreline suggested
Urc turning into really competitive competition since the south Africa teams joined, looking forward to this weekend
Thank Tim, I'm a Sharks fan but you still manage to get my hyped for the remaining games for the other SA franchises! 💣
Thankyou again for a quality factual video. Love your channel
There is so much going on with permiables at the moment it's big, but, I'm just going to enjoy the Sharks v Scareces tonight. Absolutely love your show and the eggchaser channel, bloody brilliant 🔥
The URC is really gaining pace atm. I don’t see the Ospreys getting into the playoff. It would be great if they did since it will give a team from each country in it.
Thanks, great job
Top stuff Tim, pretty much on the money.
Fascinated by Quins v Northampton this weekend. Particularly given that they both have crucial games next weekend too. How will they approach the game is intriguing. Hope there’s no injuries 🤞
Egghead! Your the man ❤
Bristol to finish top four and my bold prediction as champions!!!
Comment for algorithm. More club stuff please 🙏
Quins vs Saints looks to be a brilliant match based on the teams, hard to believe these are 'rotated' teams, both not bringing their cup final team, yet putting out some absolute quality. Quins front 5 could dominate this given the weather, Saints probably need a Thomand Park-like performance to get the W.
Id like if you had the time, to make more URC videos. A week round-up on thoughts of residents, playing/form thoughts on ingame play and stuff like that. mór suas as Baile Átha Cliath, Mo Chara.
yup na Dubanna
URC top 8 is going to come down to who gets 5 points from wins and 2 points from losses. Look for high scoring matches
Lions have a tough run in, however they have 11 BPs from 14 matches and if they can pick up another three Bps it would almost make up for one loss. That said, they have been a bit up and down. I'm hoping for them to sneak into the top eight
Unfortunately for the Lions, if two teams are on equal points, it goes to number of matches won before points difference, so they need to be a point ahead of most of the other teams going for the spots
Good vid
Lions to surprise and pull off a mad 4 week run
Let's go Stormers!
Ur playing a team that hasn’t one starter in it for the first team,be very embarrassing if you don’t win by at least 20
Go Connacht!
Let's hope the Ospreys take a 5th South African scalp tomorrow.
Leinster team has already been announced - most of the regular first 23 are in Ireland preparing for the Champions Cup SF.
Even with the team named, I reckon at 9/1 they're worth a punt
Also, if the sharks or Benetton win the challenge cup, they take one of the 8 champions cup spots.
There’s gonna be a couple of teams not make the urc top 8 because they didn’t secure a bonus point
And yes I'm on board with the whole and don't miss much of the urc, champions cup and challenge cup, I'm just concerned about the effect all of this is going to have on the oldest tournament in the world.......the Curry Cup.........
Good egg.
0:28; Top 14 seriously needs to become the ' Top 12' by getting rid of 2 Teams to have a more manageable fixture list/workload for the players!
I feel sorry for Connacht as they are away to both Munster and Leinster.
Ospreys attempting to go 5 for 5 against SA opposition today. Fingers crossed.
Leinster away? Lets bring back the glory days (06-12).
Dragons at home, its not a fixture we've lost often.
Then lets scrum Cardiff all the way from Cardiff City Stadium back to the Arms Park.
Lion's 🙏
Leinster put out a C team this weekend 😮
Leeeiinnnnnsssttteeerrrrrr
Really hope Saints can top the table and win the league and Champions cup double, would be massive for English rugby.
Won’t beat Leinster
@@amantedellopera1681 shouldn’t but won’t?
Leinster fan by any chance 🙄
Leinster 7/1 to beat anyone is outrageous, even with a weakened squad (that I think still has more than ten internationals)
Let's go Northampton!
Munster have shown in the last two years that the trip to South Africa is not something to be afraid of or to dick around with your squad over.
The Lions crush at home. Don't rule them out
Stormers is my team, and I have not much hope
If glasgow scored 2 more tries against sharks (which they definitely shoukd have) we would be top with some room above third before playing the bulls away
No offense to zebre but having them twice is pretty much 10 points in the bag (youd bloody like to hope) Bulls are the only game that im worried about but still think we are better than them, just the fact its in SA. This is why being top 2 is so crucial in the urc. The last thing any team wants (except south africans) is a quarter/semi final in SA
Comment
The Cardiff game is not a give me, for Edinburgh, Cardiff will be smarting over the bad decisions in the Ulster game.
Premiership Top4 predictions
1. Saints
2. Sarries
3. Bath
4. Quins
Saints win the whole thing
Don’t write off the Lions
I'll leave a comment for engagement points, but I have no subscription to watch these matches. That's why international rugby will stay far more popular, the games are free to watch.
I agree it is a massive shame altho if you’re interested in Top14 they’re showing 10 free matches which can be streamed in the UK including the playoffs and final between now and the end of the season - it’s being streamed on TV5MONDE if you’re interested
Most of the URC games are free to watch in the UK and Ireland(Even New Zealand has 3 or 4 a week free to air)
Lions are a sleeper team
If they beat Munster tomorrow don't be shocked
Not a hope Munster have the full bore 15 they will be bringing it to the Lions...
@johncahalane7327 hmm where have I heard this before
Maybe it was the Leinster fans last week who kept saying that this is their D team and they'll still beat the lions by 50. Yeah that dident age well
Like I said the lions are a sleeper team and if they win don't be surprised
I don't think anyone would be shocked. But because the URC standing tiebreaker has number of wins ahead of points difference, Lions are at a real disadvantage being the only team of the 7 with less than 8 wins going into the weekend
You still looking to hookup with Deon Fourie
Leinster are going to get an absolute hiding.
We all hope so
A bonus point loss would do
Brave words. Hopefully so, but, their a class act.
From who?
can't see 2 crap performances in a row. Bookies have leinster at 10/1. bonus point loss about the best result.
personally on rugby union you rock first
Leinster don’t learn ! First team won’t have played a game in 3 weeks when they face Northampton ! Another season without a trophy
And if they bring in Ringrose they will play a guy, great player and captain that he is, who has not played very much this season.
Silly comment. They will be hard beat at home.you don't beat la rochelle by 30 point,s mate if you are not ready. Table tennis about you,r level mate.😂😂😂
