Leinster are repeatedly coming offside at the breakdown, being
warned and going back. It slows the ruck down and because the
ref isn’t penalising it, they keep doing it and that’s giving
the defence time to reset every phase.
It’s good game management to warn them off once or twice. It’s
poor game management to allow it repeatedly.

It's one of the poorest performances I've seen from Marcus.

I did wonder if the offside line is being reffed at all. Maybe
it's another law that's selectively applied.

As many have said before, there is something wrong with the
mentality of our club. That’s a decent 15 to start with and
they haven’t tried. Last week at Bath, there were still in the
changing rooms for 20 mins. It’s not losing that bothers me,
it’s the lack of anyone seeming to care. Let’s hear all the
guff about taking learnings from the game and preparing well for
next week - but the facts are we’ve gone backwards again this
season.

Yes, it's an abosulte joke - but care is not even at the ruck
before the ref has told him off and he's got back onside, so
doesn't make much difference.

Sorry Marcus has been poor, no excuse about how long out of the
shirt etc. He played last week so has fitness but you don't all
of a sudden forget how to play 10. Nonsense.

Yes, sometimes the approach just feels like once they’ve had
enough they don’t care. Feel for anyone that spent money going
to Dublin this weekend. That ruck just then was dreadful. Anyone
want to come and get the ball?

Just an exhibition match now. 67 minutes and £15.99 I’m never
getting back.

Glad I didn't pay to watch. Sounds horrendous. Smith probably
out of lions contention when 4 months ago he was a certain
tourist
