Seems pretty bad maybe a few 1000

Is that a kids playground and pool behind the in goal area?

Lions and Dragons played out an entertaining 31 all draw in front of one man and his dog in the challenge cup

Leinster 3-28 up at Racing with a bonus point.
They have 21 internationals in their match day squad without Furlong and Sexton, it is like watching a test team.
Racing travel to Quins next week. Could be struggling to get out of the group stage.

Same old, same old with Leinster, then.
Leicester Tigers 1995-
Nottingham 1995-2000
Swansea (Whites) 1988-95
A game played on grass in the open air by teams of XV.

Considering Racing 92 second in the top 14 it was a real demolition job.

Well, they came out a different team to nil the Stormers in the 2nd.

Gloucester also come back from the dead to topple Bordeaux.

Even when Stain did score a try, they didn't !! Fairs fair, even tho it's them, that was a try IMO.
