Think the South African teams are just going to get stronger with more players going home. Also, the Irish front row getting mullered in the scrum, that's gotta be worrying. Final thing, Leinster's fly-half issues, could that be Jordie Barrett mentoring Prendegast next season?
I feel like Sam is already better than both Byrne brothers. Whenever they have to make a decision they shit the bed. That pass to Lowe for the try that he managed to not fuck up was ridiculous. A professional 10 should not have to turn their full body and throw a pass like that. Contrast that to the piece of skill Sam showed last weekend against ulster.
@@ItsBellersI don't get cullan backing the Byrne brothers. Ross byrne best game was against la rochelle after that he was average. Harry Byrne the same.
@@Camcolito think sam’s certainly much more of a threat in the line than Byrne is. The opposition may as well ignore him because he offers nothing in attack. Might be a bit of a liability in defence as it stands but still remains to be seen
The ref made many errors and they all seemed to be in one direction. If the Bulls had lost that game there would have been hell to pay. High tackles missed, late tackles missed, obstruction missed and many collapsed scrums missed. The worst of it was that the ref kept saying the TMO had checked, if the ref and TMO didnt pick up these obvious indiscretions you have to ask were they just crap or are they cheating? If Leinster had won with that ref the entire Leinster team and coach would have been embarrassed. Bulls would have put that game to bed and won by 20+ if the ref had a half decent match
This tmo was the same tmo in the Leinster/Bulls match earlier this season, who thought there was nothing wrong with Arendse's decapitation ... There is something off with the URC ref selections for matches. Do they even watch the matches?
No one thought it would be a home final at Loftus. The time was changed and venue due to the Presidential inauguration that usually takes place at Loftus. Luckily the inauguration is now on Wednresday at the Union Buildings as you cant have two massive events so close together in Pretoria. Those Bulls fans are really out there. I wish them all the best. From a Lions 🦁supporter.
This man Cameron H was an absolute superstar in the Game What a joie to watch his brilliant craft on the park Plus, the goings on in the scrums where Leinster battled And Willie’s kicking game, Goosen too Bulls going wide quickly was great Leinster could’ve done better A final at Loftus is the stuff of dreams for the Bulls ~ Jake’s manne must be overjoyed Pretoria is going to have fun and party en masse on coming Sat Well done…some really great moments Rugby is a game with never ending surprizes…as was this occasion 👊🔥 🪖
A bit of Dodgy stuff missed! Haha - yeah like when McCarthy was lying on the ground preventing Papier from getting the balll in full view of the ref after being warned xD
Yeah the clear out on Gibson park will be a citing. In off his feet, no arms and shoulder to head. The officials should be fired for missing it. It’s at 55 minutes in and should have been a straight red
@@ItsBellers You got a penalty for that and Papier couldn’t see if Gibson had the ball or not 🤷🏻♂️ plus it was just a push. Nothing deliberately dirty. Ball was on for a try. Completely different. McCarthy and Co were deliberately being dirty and were being “coached” out of a penalty. To be honest, many neutral pundits noted the poor officiating in this regard.
@@Stereo_mike as further proof - Leinster only got 4 penalties against them the whole match. That is absolutely unheard of and is proof of the blind sided refereeing.
I was baffled by McCarthy not getting a single card this game despite playing the 9 whilst on the ground, shoulder charging Goosen late and lying offside and preventing the ball from coming out from a ruck (and probably a couple of other more gray infringements).. I feel like in a different game every one of these incidents would get a player yellow carded.
Even the commentators got fed up of this ref letting leinster off with late hits, hands on the ground, diving of feet, scrums and playing the 9....@TwoCentsRugby did yours also get fed up?
Funniest part of the game was when Loftus played Zombie, Twice! And cut the sound for the crowd to sing "Rassie, Rassie, Rassie!" instead of Zombie. Ref was shocking!
No question about who deserved to win this game - Bulls were just too good. Played exemplary defense - made the most of their attacking opportunities. Leinster simply not good enough at the money end of the season for the 3rd year in a row. Their offense is all over the shop - chaotic, disorganized. Give credit to the Bulls & Toulouse - they both executed a disciplined, efficient breakdown plan. If it wasn't obvious before, this result confirms it - Leinster need to rebuild their backline. The Gibson Parke - Ross Byrne axis is not working; the various center partnerships (when Gary Ringrose is unavailable) are inconsistent; so too the backfield (when Hugo Keenan is unavailable). Leinster are ultra dependent on Ringrose & Keenan to lead in attack & defense. Question is who is more to blame - the Coaches or, the Players?
I say the coaches. Leo has to go and so much for Jacks defence system. Since he came in nearly every team has beaten it. We've lost our attack and flair.
Why is the standard of officiating so inferior in the URC compared to the English premiership, this isn't about playing standards this is an observation about professional officials, i have watched Rugby in both competitions for as long as i can remember and regardless of the standard of play the officiating in England is in general superior to what used to be called the Celtic league and now the URC . I have seen great games in both competitions and i have seen crap ones but the one significant difference is how many poor officials there are in the URC compared to the overhaul standard in England. Ps The top french refs are now better as well and in the past they were pretty poor so why the discrepancy.
@@dn822 I wasn't referring to this particular referee I was referring to the overhaul standard over a significant period of time , I don't know anything about this referee however the standard in the URC is so variable, English clubs and pundits used to comment on this fact 25 years ago when they played in cross border competitions such as the Anglo Welsh cup , even some of the Welsh pundits used to chuckle at the incompetence or worse of the officiating I'm just wondering why this is still the case nearly 30 years into professional rugby.
@@neilcarpenter2669 I agree completely...when we moved over from super rugby to URC we were shocked at the standard....but as South African then and probably still now it's very difficult to say anything. It really needs to improve.
Leinster fan here and I am honestly happy for the bulls. Gutted for Leinster but you gotta love the talent and the magic shown by a few of those south africans. Altitude does in fact matter and our poor oul Baird was like a dead man walking lmao. Leo needs to move on and Jack Nienabar needs to have a plan other than the blitz defense for south african teams. BULLS go to LEINSTERS home and lose by 20 or 30 points so there is no excuse for a Leinster performance like that. Well done Bulls good luck in the final.
Its actually not the altitude, old amatuer days excuse. By the sports science fact, its not high enough to make a difference at professional sports fitness levels. Its actually the harshness, dryness of the climate, winter months especially, that other rugby nations are not use. Every other nation, their rugby is played all on the coast or within 150-250km and still very lush, green, etc, where winters might be cold, but not this dryness you get up the highveld. So many ways, Rugby still amatuer in its ways, not letting go old nonsense excuses and not embracing the actual sports science should and could be learning from plethora of other sports, especially tennis and athletics where MUCH has been studied in detail about this. 2000m above sea lvl is absolute minimum before even start feeling anything as a professional sportman due to altitude AND, altitude affects base teams away from home too, as trainingnat altitude gives you superior fitness ALWAYS, not only at home, which, in itself, is even the dead give away, highveld, not high enough, as do not see that advance away from home, its something else, i.e harshness of climate not use to.
Bulls where higher ranked going into the playoff , No 2 so anyone below them who made the Finals were going to have to play bulls at home, If Munster won the final was going to be in Ireland as Munster was above the bulls going into the playoffs
Oof, worst I've seen from Leinster in a long time. Their attack was at 50% of usual, and the defense maybe 75%. Did they do any prep all week, or get some secret 3-day illness during the week? Just looked unprepared, only a shadow of the ECC final performance.
Fair play, Bulls, and congratulations. The Irish team is lot different. I think the scrum coaching is not up to standards in Leinster. The new defence system and losing Jonny Sexton hasn't helped this season. Good learnings for the test series though. I hope 😊
3rd year in a row Leinster will finish empty handed. Leo Cullen under pressure now? But on the positive side, Andy Farrell won’t have to worry about injuries in the final.
Yeah man with the squad they've got and they've never made the URC final..... I mean the priority has been the Champions Cup - 3 consecutive finals there is pretty crazy - but ultimately no silverware aye
Leo and Ross Byrne's position both under threat. With the loss of johnny there doesn't seem to be another voice in the set up that will rip into someone for not doing their job. Big lack of leadership in the Leinster squad. Ireland should still play decently well because even if the players wont play for each other or their captain they'll play for Andy. Big shake up needed in Leinster though.
Oh come on. The tackle had hardly been completed let alone a ruck been formed. Sure you're not allowed to obstruct an opponent however the defenders don't have to give way either. If you get to that space first then that's your space. There was a little bit of an arm extended by the defender but no way are you going to get away with such a blatant off the ball tackle as that.
I was very surprised in the shift in tactics by the Bulls. It was such a departure from last week against Benetton and I think it caught Leinster off guard to the extent that they had no response. Sam Grove-White was caught completely out of his depth as referee in this game. I would've loved to see an English ref officiate this one. Luke Pierce is, in my opinion, the best in the world right now and would've been better suited than any URC referee to officiate such a big playoff match.
What now for Leinster? Team full of stars and good squad depth,but can turn that into the big trophies. They seem to get bullied out of their own style,and don't rate this so called new defensive system. Plus need more control at 10. Should it be Frawley/Prendergast over the Byrnes?
I'm here after Munster v Glasgow Warriors. I'm absolutely devastated. What the hell kind of performance was that? Glasgow fully deserved to win 100%. Munster deserved to lose 100%. I will say, that the silver lining in all of this, is that this is a big W for the URC. It should soon become the biggest domestic league in the Northern/Southern Hemisphere someday, because unlike competitions like Super Rugby, it will add an extra layer of competitiveness with new winners each season. If not, at least do it as frequently as possible. Each season, it continues to grow, and with the final in Pretoria, Bulls v Glasgow will be telling.
@@wlk2408 It is 100% a privilege. It's done WAY better than I could have imagined, than quite frankly anyone in that regard. I fancy it to become the prime leader in domestication of rugby across the next few seasons The only league in the entre rugby world where teams from both hemispheres compete against each other. Never been done before, and it's glorious to witness.
@@wlk2408 That's a shame to hear. I think he would have been in awe of the tradition that exists here in Ireland when it comes to rugby. We are growing more and more into the sport year by year. And I can definitely say Hanekom would have torn it up on the field here back then, just like he did in the game yesterday. He's some specimen!
Hanekom was solid, but with Roos and Wiese still there I can't say for sure this guy is Duane Vermeulen succesor for boks but Rassie is spoilt for choice. Have to take bulls in final (hardly a hot take😅) , think their pack will be too much for Glasgow and Willie le roux territory game is quality at altitude Very interesting that Leinster have lost 3champions cup final in row and semi exits in URC. You would think something would give already. Jordie Barrett gonna be fun to watch next year
Yeah and theg tried to hurt willie...u could see it with those late hits....shoking that the ref had to coach the leinster players...i heard that the englisg and afrikaans commentators said this is pathetic
I was at the game. was awesome. I am yet to see a Bulls defeat at Loftus, I guess my good luck charm worked today. Crowd was very displeased with the ref. Loads of profanities …
Bulls Vs Warriors is the final that a lot of our friends in the Irish media couldn’t see happening. Overcoming the Bulls in Pretoria is a massive challenge, no doubt they are big favourites. But hopefully Glasgow have earned some respect by doing their talking on the pitch by knocking out the previous two champions. Fingers crossed, C’mon Glasgow!
I hope I won't be considered presumptuous if I offer some advice, do not write Glasgow off! From a Munster man be wise. Ye may not thank Glasgow after the match, as we found out! ☘☘☘☘☘☘☘I am looking forward to the final and may the best team win!
Cullen needs to go. He keeps using his excuse. They keep using the same plan all the time . A team with the experience of leinster should not be bottling it. Well done bulls anyway. The organisation and coaching staff need to look at themselves. Hope for Glasgow to win the title.
@grahamshaw3802 ok, but using the same excuses. For example, excuses 1 competing on 2 fronts. Excuses 2 giving the guys good experience (for the future, yes, but now not a valid on).
After reading all the comments (and hearing some of Wildkard’s rant, I watched the match, with Afrikaans commentary on YT and was prepared to witness a refereeing disaster. Well, I agree Sergeal Petersen’s yellow card was very soft and remember Willie LenRoux being taken out off the ball (and he also got away with a ridiculous forward pass) and there were a few dubious tackles and cleanouts, but it didn’t strike me as being overall that far over the top poor. If anything, the referee let the teams play without calling every soft pen. Bulls were better, and might have earned a bit more of the rub of the green, but Leinster didn’t get away with as much as I was prepared to see, in all honesty. It wasn’t a brilliant refereeing performance, but I’ve seen much worse.
Yeah man the penalty count was low and yeah the soft/borderline ones were let go. I was actually wondering if there was a different commentary from the one I heard which focused on the refs because yeah there have been a lot more of the same kind of comments. But yeah compared to the current standard set by what they're supposed to call - this one did strike me as an outlier for sure
😊you are in minority, its not only Bulls fans complaining. This is a semi, I would appreciate it that he blows every 'soft penalty' . At one stage he was coaching Leinster forwards out of penalties, hence Leinster only received 4 penalties against them..all match..😊
Hey man you a classic pink Bulls jersey😁 Leinster and Munster play very predictable rugby and the Bulls and Glasgow used the shift defence against them quite well and killed their attack quite well. Both games were won on good defence.
I know we are from Africa and not Europe, but come in guys the biasness of the refs is becoming ridiculous and embarrassing. Its killing the game we love. Loving the URC though, top tier league.
Yep, and then all the head tackkes on Bulls players, no scrum penalties for Bulls dominant scrum, Hanekom getting penalised for a text book jackal, etc
Neinaber can forget his plane ticket back to Dublin. We don’t want him anymore. He’s brought nothing to this team other than the water. His defensive system is garbage
Jacques was tasked with improving your defense system. Your defense was decent. My understanding is that his duties haven't extended beyond that. I think maybe Mr Cullen must stay in South Africa find himself a nice place in Rondebosch or Ballito. Your attack wasn't great and game management lack lustre. You guys are missing Hugo Keenan and need to find a new 10.
@gideonvanniekerk4252 I agree the years before him leinster got nowhere. Taylor from the hurricanes should help fix the attack, and then again, I could be talking rubbish
The refereeing was disgusting. I am a Stormers supporter and it was definitely hard cheering the Bulls on but the TMO and Ref looked like they wanted Leinster to win... YOU mention Nothing??
You need to watch his vid again. He absolutly talks about it. In fact he states that he's not one for calling bad refing but in this case he has to.4.58

Think the South African teams are just going to get stronger with more players going home. Also, the Irish front row getting mullered in the scrum, that's gotta be worrying. Final thing, Leinster's fly-half issues, could that be Jordie Barrett mentoring Prendegast next season?
I feel like Sam is already better than both Byrne brothers. Whenever they have to make a decision they shit the bed. That pass to Lowe for the try that he managed to not fuck up was ridiculous. A professional 10 should not have to turn their full body and throw a pass like that. Contrast that to the piece of skill Sam showed last weekend against ulster.
@@ItsBellersI don't get cullan backing the Byrne brothers. Ross byrne best game was against la rochelle after that he was average. Harry Byrne the same.
@@ItsBellers He isn't quite but Frawley is.
@@Camcolito think sam’s certainly much more of a threat in the line than Byrne is. The opposition may as well ignore him because he offers nothing in attack. Might be a bit of a liability in defence as it stands but still remains to be seen
@@ItsBellers I'd play Prendergast before either Byrne as well with his trajectory, but I'd put Frawley at 10 before any of them right now personally.
Cameron Hanekom, take a bow, lad. Special player!
Thanks for mentioning the spoiler of the 2nd game, haven't seen it yet-good man, much appreciated :)
No worries man - I think l try harder than the bloody commentators to avoid dropping spoilers 😅
Cameron putting up performances like this is making it tough for Roos to take that 8 jersey! Will we see a switch from Roos?
It’s very cool for the league as a whole that there will be a different champion for the fourth year in a row!
agreed, especially having a Scottish team for first time. most would've put money on SA and Irish teams in final. good surprise
Always liked your podcast!!! You're pretty objective for a Kiwi, which is surely appreciated.
Keep Going!!!❤
Cheers man! 🍺
The ref made many errors and they all seemed to be in one direction. If the Bulls had lost that game there would have been hell to pay. High tackles missed, late tackles missed, obstruction missed and many collapsed scrums missed. The worst of it was that the ref kept saying the TMO had checked, if the ref and TMO didnt pick up these obvious indiscretions you have to ask were they just crap or are they cheating? If Leinster had won with that ref the entire Leinster team and coach would have been embarrassed. Bulls would have put that game to bed and won by 20+ if the ref had a half decent match
Yeah missing the high shot on JGP AND Kelleher as well as taking Larmour out in the air. All went just one way...
This tmo was the same tmo in the Leinster/Bulls match earlier this season, who thought there was nothing wrong with Arendse's decapitation ...
There is something off with the URC ref selections for matches. Do they even watch the matches?
@@eoinmiller5620agree,the Lowe incident should have been a penalty, I counted 15 bad calls vs the Bulls on the 60 min mark...
Am I the only one who has been saying for a long time he is the worse Ref in rugby at the moment 🤔 . Well done Bull's 👏
No one thought it would be a home final at Loftus. The time was changed and venue due to the Presidential inauguration that usually takes place at Loftus. Luckily the inauguration is now on Wednresday at the Union Buildings as you cant have two massive events so close together in Pretoria. Those Bulls fans are really out there. I wish them all the best. From a Lions 🦁supporter.
This man Cameron H was an absolute superstar in the Game
What a joie to watch his brilliant craft on the park
Plus, the goings on in the scrums where Leinster battled
And Willie’s kicking game, Goosen too
Bulls going wide quickly was great
Leinster could’ve done better
A final at Loftus is the stuff of dreams for the Bulls ~ Jake’s manne must be overjoyed
Pretoria is going to have fun and party en masse on coming Sat
Well done…some really great moments
Rugby is a game with never ending surprizes…as was this occasion
👊🔥
🪖
Mark would you ever do a watch along for URC games, maybe the final, underdtandable if not if were just watchi g you drinking coffee at 5am
Whoa...GREAT shirt btw. 😍
A bit of Dodgy stuff missed! Haha - yeah like when McCarthy was lying on the ground preventing Papier from getting the balll in full view of the ref after being warned xD
Yes along with that clear out on Gibson park
Yeah the clear out on Gibson park will be a citing. In off his feet, no arms and shoulder to head. The officials should be fired for missing it. It’s at 55 minutes in and should have been a straight red
@@ItsBellers You got a penalty for that and Papier couldn’t see if Gibson had the ball or not 🤷🏻♂️ plus it was just a push. Nothing deliberately dirty. Ball was on for a try. Completely different.
McCarthy and Co were deliberately being dirty and were being “coached” out of a penalty. To be honest, many neutral pundits noted the poor officiating in this regard.
@@Stereo_mike as further proof - Leinster only got 4 penalties against them the whole match. That is absolutely unheard of and is proof of the blind sided refereeing.
I was baffled by McCarthy not getting a single card this game despite playing the 9 whilst on the ground, shoulder charging Goosen late and lying offside and preventing the ball from coming out from a ruck (and probably a couple of other more gray infringements).. I feel like in a different game every one of these incidents would get a player yellow carded.
Cameron Hanekom 😮
Another great video pal!
Thanks for the visit!
Even the commentators got fed up of this ref letting leinster off with late hits, hands on the ground, diving of feet, scrums and playing the 9....@TwoCentsRugby did yours also get fed up?
What more has to happen for Reverie’s to be held accountable,one of the worst, seen in a long time 😢😢
He's not gonna make any highlights packages, but shout out Wilco Louw. Dude was in beast mode.
Respect to the Bulls from Ireland 🇮🇪 🙌
Funniest part of the game was when Loftus played Zombie, Twice! And cut the sound for the crowd to sing "Rassie, Rassie, Rassie!" instead of Zombie. Ref was shocking!
No question about who deserved to win this game - Bulls were just too good. Played exemplary defense - made the most of their attacking opportunities.
Leinster simply not good enough at the money end of the season for the 3rd year in a row. Their offense is all over the shop - chaotic, disorganized. Give credit to the Bulls & Toulouse - they both executed a disciplined, efficient breakdown plan.
If it wasn't obvious before, this result confirms it - Leinster need to rebuild their backline. The Gibson Parke - Ross Byrne axis is not working; the various center partnerships (when Gary Ringrose is unavailable) are inconsistent; so too the backfield (when Hugo Keenan is unavailable). Leinster are ultra dependent on Ringrose & Keenan to lead in attack & defense. Question is who is more to blame - the Coaches or, the Players?
Leinster have gone backwards for sure.
I would say be easy on the lads, but they have to feel the pressure of coming so close yet so far for 3 years in a row........ 😢
I say the coaches. Leo has to go and so much for Jacks defence system. Since he came in nearly every team has beaten it. We've lost our attack and flair.
Hanekom and Louw are the men for the future for the Boks. No flashy stuff , just hard work game in and game out.
louw seems like good successor for Mostert when that time comes, engine!
Why is the standard of officiating so inferior in the URC compared to the English premiership, this isn't about playing standards this is an observation about professional officials, i have watched Rugby in both competitions for as long as i can remember and regardless of the standard of play the officiating in England is in general superior to what used to be called the Celtic league and now the URC . I have seen great games in both competitions and i have seen crap ones but the one significant difference is how many poor officials there are in the URC compared to the overhaul standard in England. Ps The top french refs are now better as well and in the past they were pretty poor so why the discrepancy.
No this was not a bad ref that just made mistakes...this was a biased ref...that's a completely different thing. It's cheating.
@@dn822 I wasn't referring to this particular referee I was referring to the overhaul standard over a significant period of time , I don't know anything about this referee however the standard in the URC is so variable, English clubs and pundits used to comment on this fact 25 years ago when they played in cross border competitions such as the Anglo Welsh cup , even some of the Welsh pundits used to chuckle at the incompetence or worse of the officiating I'm just wondering why this is still the case nearly 30 years into professional rugby.
@@neilcarpenter2669 I agree completely...when we moved over from super rugby to URC we were shocked at the standard....but as South African then and probably still now it's very difficult to say anything. It really needs to improve.
Leinster fan here and I am honestly happy for the bulls. Gutted for Leinster but you gotta love the talent and the magic shown by a few of those south africans. Altitude does in fact matter and our poor oul Baird was like a dead man walking lmao. Leo needs to move on and Jack Nienabar needs to have a plan other than the blitz defense for south african teams. BULLS go to LEINSTERS home and lose by 20 or 30 points so there is no excuse for a Leinster performance like that. Well done Bulls good luck in the final.
Its actually not the altitude, old amatuer days excuse. By the sports science fact, its not high enough to make a difference at professional sports fitness levels.
Its actually the harshness, dryness of the climate, winter months especially, that other rugby nations are not use. Every other nation, their rugby is played all on the coast or within 150-250km and still very lush, green, etc, where winters might be cold, but not this dryness you get up the highveld.
So many ways, Rugby still amatuer in its ways, not letting go old nonsense excuses and not embracing the actual sports science should and could be learning from plethora of other sports, especially tennis and athletics where MUCH has been studied in detail about this.
2000m above sea lvl is absolute minimum before even start feeling anything as a professional sportman due to altitude AND, altitude affects base teams away from home too, as trainingnat altitude gives you superior fitness ALWAYS, not only at home, which, in itself, is even the dead give away, highveld, not high enough, as do not see that advance away from home, its something else, i.e harshness of climate not use to.
Also the bulls lost by 20 as they took their C team....remember in the first season of URC bulls took their A team to Aviva stadium and beat Leinster.
Can someone explain to me why it's a Bulls home game in the final?
Bulls where higher ranked going into the playoff , No 2 so anyone below them who made the Finals were going to have to play bulls at home, If Munster won the final was going to be in Ireland as Munster was above the bulls going into the playoffs
Oof, worst I've seen from Leinster in a long time. Their attack was at 50% of usual, and the defense maybe 75%. Did they do any prep all week, or get some secret 3-day illness during the week? Just looked unprepared, only a shadow of the ECC final performance.
Fair play, Bulls, and congratulations. The Irish team is lot different. I think the scrum coaching is not up to standards in Leinster. The new defence system and losing Jonny Sexton hasn't helped this season. Good learnings for the test series though. I hope 😊
3rd year in a row Leinster will finish empty handed. Leo Cullen under pressure now? But on the positive side, Andy Farrell won’t have to worry about injuries in the final.
Yeah man with the squad they've got and they've never made the URC final..... I mean the priority has been the Champions Cup - 3 consecutive finals there is pretty crazy - but ultimately no silverware aye
Leo and Ross Byrne's position both under threat. With the loss of johnny there doesn't seem to be another voice in the set up that will rip into someone for not doing their job. Big lack of leadership in the Leinster squad. Ireland should still play decently well because even if the players wont play for each other or their captain they'll play for Andy. Big shake up needed in Leinster though.
@@TwoCentsRugby Gives Ireland players a bit of a rest! - What do you make of Cameron Hanekom for the Bulls?
@@ItsBellersI feel the irfu are trying to keep him there besides the backlash for the Irish job. Wouldn't be surprised
@@seanofarrell8896oh god no. I think Paul O Connell and Ronan O Gara are ahead of him in that list. Leo way down the list
First try being disallowed was rubbish, Leinster player was interfering with bulls no.06 getting to the ruck.. bad day for ref
Oh come on. The tackle had hardly been completed let alone a ruck been formed. Sure you're not allowed to obstruct an opponent however the defenders don't have to give way either. If you get to that space first then that's your space. There was a little bit of an arm extended by the defender but no way are you going to get away with such a blatant off the ball tackle as that.
I was very surprised in the shift in tactics by the Bulls. It was such a departure from last week against Benetton and I think it caught Leinster off guard to the extent that they had no response.
Sam Grove-White was caught completely out of his depth as referee in this game. I would've loved to see an English ref officiate this one. Luke Pierce is, in my opinion, the best in the world right now and would've been better suited than any URC referee to officiate such a big playoff match.
What now for Leinster? Team full of stars and good squad depth,but can turn that into the big trophies. They seem to get bullied out of their own style,and don't rate this so called new defensive system. Plus need more control at 10. Should it be Frawley/Prendergast over the Byrnes?
Yes, it can be disheartening sometimes but there is always next season.😮
Cameron ariving on the scene just in time for the boks.
Epic semi finals 🎉
I'm here after Munster v Glasgow Warriors.
I'm absolutely devastated. What the hell kind of performance was that?
Glasgow fully deserved to win 100%. Munster deserved to lose 100%.
I will say, that the silver lining in all of this, is that this is a big W for the URC. It should soon become the biggest domestic league in the Northern/Southern Hemisphere someday, because unlike competitions like Super Rugby, it will add an extra layer of competitiveness with new winners each season. If not, at least do it as frequently as possible. Each season, it continues to grow, and with the final in Pretoria, Bulls v Glasgow will be telling.
@@wlk2408 It is 100% a privilege. It's done WAY better than I could have imagined, than quite frankly anyone in that regard. I fancy it to become the prime leader in domestication of rugby across the next few seasons The only league in the entre rugby world where teams from both hemispheres compete against each other. Never been done before, and it's glorious to witness.
@@wlk2408 That's a shame to hear. I think he would have been in awe of the tradition that exists here in Ireland when it comes to rugby. We are growing more and more into the sport year by year. And I can definitely say Hanekom would have torn it up on the field here back then, just like he did in the game yesterday. He's some specimen!
I am going to mention the result - big scores on the whiteboard😂.. Are your episodes on a podcast too?
He warned people that he would be mentioning the result in the other game not this one.
@@charlottescott7150 oooh! So my ears are the problem 😂
Hanekom was solid, but with Roos and Wiese still there I can't say for sure this guy is Duane Vermeulen succesor for boks but Rassie is spoilt for choice.
Have to take bulls in final (hardly a hot take😅) , think their pack will be too much for Glasgow and Willie le roux territory game is quality at altitude
Very interesting that Leinster have lost 3champions cup final in row and semi exits in URC. You would think something would give already. Jordie Barrett gonna be fun to watch next year
Leo Cullen's position needs to be looked at big time.
SA in every final. SA LFG. Is this what we looking forward to in July?
Should beat ireland by 30 points in each game.
Yeah man they're doing bloody well in the URC!
SA rugby is world class. Ireland have a hard task
At least were humble in victory
@@khitfh7654gju ....what???
Frawley is a 10, not a fb.
Byrne not good kicking poor. Again why is Carberry being let go to France?
The ref was blatantly biased. Bulls were a lot better.
I miss that whack ass purple/pink jersey 😅. Thanks for wearimg it bro. Deserved win Bulls
This is genuinely one of my favourite jerseys of all time!
Cameron Hanekom was a beast!!!
Seat belt tackle by Conan? That was e proper coat hanger.
Hanekom was good, but I would have given player if the match to Petersen or Wilco Louw, who owned the Leinster front row.
ref was shocking
A bit of dodgy stuff from Leinster Mark, you can say it. Leinster played a dirty game. Something I've seen from the Irish team.
Yeah and theg tried to hurt willie...u could see it with those late hits....shoking that the ref had to coach the leinster players...i heard that the englisg and afrikaans commentators said this is pathetic
Plenty of dirty shite going the other way too if you look at the game a bit more objectively
The URC is just better than the garbage from Super rugby.
URC can´t even make half decent highlight videos because there isn´t enough content to show.
"Unnecessary... but... y'know sometimes that happens, so, NO try." 🤣
I was at the game. was awesome. I am yet to see a Bulls defeat at Loftus, I guess my good luck charm worked today. Crowd was very displeased with the ref. Loads of profanities …
Make sure you go to the final then mate!
Ek hoop hulle het sy p gevloek
@@TwoCentsRugby Yep, tickets already secured
Bulls Vs Warriors is the final that a lot of our friends in the Irish media couldn’t see happening.
Overcoming the Bulls in Pretoria is a massive challenge, no doubt they are big favourites. But hopefully Glasgow have earned some respect by doing their talking on the pitch by knocking out the previous two champions. Fingers crossed, C’mon Glasgow!
I hope Glasgow win it to keep it out of SA again
I hope I won't be considered presumptuous if I offer some advice, do not write Glasgow off! From a Munster man be wise. Ye may not thank Glasgow after the match, as we found out!
☘☘☘☘☘☘☘I am looking forward to the final and may the best team win!
Maybe the IRFU should start sharing resources more evenly with Ulster and Connacht because ploughing everything in to Leinster aint working
As a neutral, the ref was the only reason the game was a contest, if the ref was even half decent the bulls would have won by 25-30 points
Ref was shocking, clear bias towards Leinster, only 4 penalties against them.
The referring on the Hurricanes v Chiefs and Bulls v Leinster was horrendous. Rugby won regardless.
Where's the Chiefs vs. Hurricanes review????
Super Rugby semi are coming in a bit ;)
Time to start looking to replace Cullen I think. Give him one more season and start looking now just to make sure we don’t get someone worse
The ref was terrible if not biased towards Leinster to such an extent that if Leinster won every last one of them would have been embarrassed
Never write off SFFA when it matters the most.
Love the URC🎉🎉😅😅
the Bull front row with zero Springboks destroyed the full strength irish test front row...
Cullen needs to go. He keeps using his excuse. They keep using the same plan all the time . A team with the experience of leinster should not be bottling it. Well done bulls anyway. The organisation and coaching staff need to look at themselves. Hope for Glasgow to win the title.
Loosing games is not always bottling it
@grahamshaw3802 ok, but using the same excuses. For example, excuses 1 competing on 2 fronts. Excuses 2 giving the guys good experience (for the future, yes, but now not a valid on).
Bulls deserve it more, should have won 2 years ago if not for hometown tmo
After reading all the comments (and hearing some of Wildkard’s rant, I watched the match, with Afrikaans commentary on YT and was prepared to witness a refereeing disaster. Well, I agree Sergeal Petersen’s yellow card was very soft and remember Willie LenRoux being taken out off the ball (and he also got away with a ridiculous forward pass) and there were a few dubious tackles and cleanouts, but it didn’t strike me as being overall that far over the top poor. If anything, the referee let the teams play without calling every soft pen. Bulls were better, and might have earned a bit more of the rub of the green, but Leinster didn’t get away with as much as I was prepared to see, in all honesty. It wasn’t a brilliant refereeing performance, but I’ve seen much worse.
Yeah man the penalty count was low and yeah the soft/borderline ones were let go. I was actually wondering if there was a different commentary from the one I heard which focused on the refs because yeah there have been a lot more of the same kind of comments. But yeah compared to the current standard set by what they're supposed to call - this one did strike me as an outlier for sure
😊you are in minority, its not only Bulls fans complaining. This is a semi, I would appreciate it that he blows every 'soft penalty' . At one stage he was coaching Leinster forwards out of penalties, hence Leinster only received 4 penalties against them..all match..😊
Doom in Donnybrook!
Leo has to go....
I agree but wouldn't be surprised if they resist it(irfu)
Agree, but he's the Ross Byrne of coaches.
it seems like its time alright, Leinster have been predictable and lacking innovation for a while.
Varadkar? I thought he'd already gone?
@@MerckZ21 ?
Just give Cameron the Green & Gold number 8 jersey
Everyone saying the ref was for leinster fair few penalties missed true, however he also missed two reds for dangerous clear out bye the bulls
Hey man you a classic pink Bulls jersey😁
Leinster and Munster play very predictable rugby and the Bulls and Glasgow used the shift defence against them quite well and killed their attack quite well.
Both games were won on good defence.
Gipson park concussion, no review, shocking ref
Leinster concentrate far too much on trying to get the fifth star on their Jersey and not enough emphasis on the URC..backfires every time.
I know we are from Africa and not Europe, but come in guys the biasness of the refs is becoming ridiculous and embarrassing. Its killing the game we love. Loving the URC though, top tier league.
Leinster’s attack has really gone backwards this season. They didn’t win a single turnover at the breakdown.
I agree, I don't like criticising the refs, but in this game I distinctly remember him missing an absolute howler of a forward pass from the Bulls!
Yep, and then all the head tackkes on Bulls players, no scrum penalties for Bulls dominant scrum, Hanekom getting penalised for a text book jackal, etc
Bulls B team against irish test team lol...awsome.
Neinaber can forget his plane ticket back to Dublin. We don’t want him anymore. He’s brought nothing to this team other than the water. His defensive system is garbage
But it’s been the same the previous three years 🤷🏻♂️ how can you blame the new guy 😂😂
Jacques was tasked with improving your defense system. Your defense was decent. My understanding is that his duties haven't extended beyond that. I think maybe Mr Cullen must stay in South Africa find himself a nice place in Rondebosch or Ballito. Your attack wasn't great and game management lack lustre. You guys are missing Hugo Keenan and need to find a new 10.
@gideonvanniekerk4252 I agree the years before him leinster got nowhere. Taylor from the hurricanes should help fix the attack, and then again, I could be talking rubbish
@@Dinkybear622 you can't blame Hugo from wanting to do the Olympics. That can't be an excuse to
@@seanofarrell8896 I suppose. His timing was terrible. I do think the bigger problem though is that 10 position. Let's see what Leo does next season.
Shame about the crowd... so many empty seats.

That ref was so kak!
Am I the only one who has been saying for a long time he is the worse Ref in rugby at the moment 🤔 . Well done Bull's 👏
The refereeing was disgusting. I am a Stormers supporter and it was definitely hard cheering the Bulls on but the TMO and Ref looked like they wanted Leinster to win... YOU mention Nothing??
I definitely mentioned something about the decisions being dodgy brother
Why, they weren't playing the Stormers?
You need to watch his vid again. He absolutly talks about it. In fact he states that he's not one for calling bad refing but in this case he has to.4.58
