Tbh just my take but I'm really finding the booing of ROG pretty disgusting and in very bad taste. ROG was a superb out half for Munster & Ireland and is now a superb coach. He deserves our thanks and respect. There's a way to support & that's not it.

Absolutely devastated to hear this, there's so much negativity online & so many people spouting vile rubbish. Easier said than done but ignore them all Rhasidat Adeleke, you are a phenomenal athlete that has inspired a generation (already!!),we are all so incredibly proud of you!
Matt Williams embarrassing himself atm discussing Concussion and defending White coming back on even though all guidance suggests that he should never have been back on the field. Do better! Player welfare is key.
Huge huge Congratulations Dr

Dear soccer commentators... Please stop calling players that sustain a head injury, and are clearly concussed, 'brave' for staying on the pitch 😡 Players displaying obvious signs of head injury, should be removed from play.

Seriously 😱 I'm a neutral watching this match and I am raging on Fiji's behalf. The fact they have remained so respectful and calm is a credit to them.

This feels like a sick joke.
Jenni Hermoso was forcibly kissed without consent on global TV and She is apparently getting sued??
Infantino patronisingly said to women to speak up.... well look what has happened when Hermoso did.
Disgraceful.

Good to hear this being discussed properly by the panel after the game on VM. Kearney spot on. So disappointing to hear Matt Williams comments & defending the decision.
@bernardjackman
What most of these lads need right now is a proper break to recharge. Heading down to SA for a summer tour can't be filling the majority of them with any joy/excitement. The season is getting increasingly long & the players we do have will get burnt out &/or injured.
A superb evening hosting our first May conferring as

Who gives a f**k about women's Rugby? .... Tons of us!! As an advocate and supporter of women in sport and particularly rugby it's tough to read this article. 👇👇👇
“Who gives a f*** about women’s rugby?” said a prominent figure in Irish rugby at a president’s dinner last month in Dublin.
Players denied protein. 'Horror stories' over selection. A special report on the sexism that pervades

Relistening to this again today, great insights, so much respect for ROG, what a fantastic coach & love his approach. Will be cheering for Leinster in the final but hard not to admire the culture, values & style of play that he has brought to La Rochelle.
"It's not really about rugby, as you see today.
"It's about having vision and belief in a project."
Always a fascinating listen,

final.
#HeinekenChampionsCup
Again and again 🤦. 'Tackle school' not doing much for Farrell. This kind of 'technique' has no place on the pitch. Red card right decision. Farrell needs to do so much better.
Easy to understand why community rugby coaches and players get angry that they are having strict tackle height laws imposed on them but then have to watch such poor discipline in the professional game.

Women's qualifications are less likely to be mentioned by men.
Study of 300+ intros of MD/PhD presenters:
Men introduced 72% of men as Dr. but only 49% of women as Dr.
Women introduced speakers as Dr. regardless of gender.
Respecting women shouldn't be this hard.

"Look at the things the other teams have put in place. We've only started and it's too late. It's not the girls' fault. It should've been done years ago.

#womeninsport
Disappointing to say the least... A very one-sided presentation by World Rugby & insulting to players that are currently suffering. There are of course debates needed but presenting evidence which only favours your position is bias by any interpretation!
I love Munster but God this is hard to watch. Disappointing to see this performance after what we saw against Leinster. Thought there'd be some turn around. So many players not showing up and a ridiculous number of handling errors.
