Anyone know if he had a hand in any of the tries?

Only the celebrations.

No sign of Leone for Toulon - seems to be stranded in Fiji….

He arrived in Toulon yesterday.

Shocking challenge, basically assault.

Yep, that was a shocker. As obvious a red card as I've ever seen.

Why why why. Ball long gone, no arms raised to claim it was an attempted charge down, launches upward. I can’t deal with the stupidity.

What Faf did against Australia was at least as stupid, if less dangerous, and, in all likelihood, cost the Saffers the Test match.

I love a good brain fart.

I see a former Irish international is up in court on multiple fraud charges relating to investments. No name shown but an ex Leinster man.

A former Ireland and British and Irish Lions rugby international has appeared in court charged with stealing more than €500,000 from Bank of Ireland.

Brendan Mullin, 57, of Stillorgan Road, Dublin, appeared before Dublin District Court.

It followed an investigation by the Garda (Irish police) National Economic Crime Bureau.

Mr Mullin faces nine counts of stealing €578,000 (£495,937) from Bank of Ireland between 2011 and 2013.

The former managing director of Bank of Ireland private banking is accused of deceiving two people to sign a payment instruction to make a gain for himself or cause a loss to another.

In court on Tuesday, Mr Mullin, who won 55 caps for Ireland between 1984 and 1995, was also charged with five counts of false accounting.

A detective told the court that Mr Mullin made no comment when informed of the charges he faced.

Mr Mullin was released on bail of his own bond of €10,000 (£8,584) and agreed to surrender his passport.

He is due back in court on 11 November.

Is this Top 14 most wanted rugby players?

A shocker right enough. Very much the Irish golden boy of his era. His young fella is in the Leinster Academy and the Irish 7s squad.

12 game ban, reduced from 24 for the usual stuff, said sorry and clean record. If he had been playing in SH, could have tried the "I didn't mean it" defence and only get a couple of games.

Sad fact is sometimes in the game there are players who sort of goad you all afternoon and they bring on that red mist which feeds a
" now I've got you" moment --- which goes can go beyond what you intended .

If you have never experienced it then you have never player in the back row --- out- halfs can be extremely annoying and Yes some out halfs would say the same thing about back row players .

My Father played in the back row and many years later met an out half who said "do you remember the day I kicked the ball and hit your family jewels -- I meant it to -- it was my best kick in the afternoon -- because you had been tackling me marginally late all afternoon and I got you --- no hard feelings after that ---was there . "

Brive beat Stade Francais today 19-12.

Now sitting 3rd after 5 games but there's not much in it.
