With so many cancellations I just wonder whether it is possible to pick up 20 points and not play a game. Crazy times.

Given that the French have caused so many fixtures to be postponed, I’d be pretty miffed if I was one of the teams forced to post a 28-0 loss

Those games are being replayed hopefully, but how Leinster have lost 28-0 when Montpellier had cases too and Leinster had the numbers to put a squad out baffles me though!

As I understand it, only the travel ban games will be replayed. The teams that cancel through covid lose

Yes that's right,28-0 so a TBP loss. But the circumstances around the Leinster/Montpellier game are very harsh. Both had cases but Leinster said they could still put a squad together

Given that the postponed games have been caused by the French government, all the French teams should have a 28-0 loss

couldn't agree with Flats more, the Quins fullback is at fault there is anything he should be in the bin for jumping into a tackle

that's obstruction by Dombrandt, clearly leans into the Cardiff 13 to block him getting to Smith

Yes,happens all the time though. Supporting players always run blocking lines to force the defender out

run a blocking line all fair, to actually lean across when he's getting around you is akin to changing your line and a penalty for me, needless, he was never going to catch Smith
