Very tough call against McCarthy there. Saffa tight obviously boring in and the whole pack pushing left. About as clear a penalty as you can get against a scrum going forward

Time for South Africa to acknowledge that they have a problem. Too often they're looking for cheap shots.

Perhaps the easiest PotM decision in the whole of the autumn.

Doesn't seem like the South Africans learned much from the red card last week.

Needs a second look to be sure but it looked to me like the difference that Sam made was in positioning himself out the back rather than as 1st receiver. Helped enormously that our lineout started functioning!

Harry probably deserves PoTM but RG should have at least gotten a mention given how he turned the maul defence around in the 2nd half

Zebre deserve that bonus point. Leinster just need to stay disciplined and see this game out now.

An interesting aside on this is that a player having given their best years to a NH club is going to spend the twilight of their career in a big SH club. Normally we see it the other way around.
Wow, big news this!
Feel a little sad in a way. Does seem that Toulouse have moved on from Ahki, but he’s such a subtly key cog in that machine.
Possibly most underrated Top 14 Player this decade?

Confirmed last night: Pita Ahki to leave Toulouse in early December to join Auckland Blues

It should be needless to say, but it is perhaps at this moment worth saying, that transgender individuals have the same right as anyone else to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

Farage said today he would said women refugees back to the Taliban.
What a grotesque loss of touch with the whole idea of ‘right’.
The Taliban’s strict command about ‘no skin contact between women and unrelated men’ means rescuers leave injured but surviving women under earthquake rubble, even as they retrieve the dead first.

Taliban's 'no skin contact with males' rule leaves Afghan women under quake rubble
Many women remain trapped and overlooked after the deadly earthquake in Afghanistan, as male rescuers prioritise efforts on men and children due to Taliban's strict “no skin-contact” rule.

This quite neatly illustrates just one of the issues thrown up by the supreme courts decision to change the interpretation of the law.
I do think that the interpretation is incorrect but the onus is now on the govt. to amend the legislation. Sadly I think that's unlikely to happen.

I want to explain a few things and then it might be clearer why UK trans people are upset.
In 2001 I married my wife, Sylvia.
In 2005 I started medical transition. (1/13)

Losing both Itoje and Ryan is really hurting the lions lineout. Wallabies able to read the throw at will it seems.
