Treviso v Leinster Sat 3.30 TG4

[paddyor]

There was almost nothing to complain about today, it was a really really professional performance.

Conan played brilliantly and at the same time looked like he had another gear. Very happy.

7 pens conceded, 18 missed tackles!
Leo's losing the dressing-room.

The statzi would like a word

Admittedly it’s still early days, but I’d venture that in Fardy and Lowe we seem to have the best NIQ pair of new signings in a long time. Real quality and real leadership from both of them.

Yeah, I’m sure you’ve a theory on it. You’re a big fan of the data, so how cr@p were we on those metrics on the “missed tackles”?

Do both Lowe and Ringrose start against Exeter now? Seems to me they should.

Did we not leave Lowe out of our Euro squad for this section so he won't be playing till January!?!

He can be added before Tuesday as long as we take out another player

Might depend on when the likes of Carbery or Barry Daly are due back from injury. Otherwise someone like Cathal Marsh might be expendable. A player de-registered can be re-registered later on.

edit: think we could remove one of the front rows. Need a minimum of 10 front rows in the squad but we have 11 currently (4 LHPs, 3 THPs and 4 hookers) so think we could take out the likes of Bryan Byrne or one Ed Byrne or Peter Dooley.

Any REM fans on here? They wrote the anthem.

Lowe, Lowe, Lowe,
Lowe, Lowe, Lowe

I skipped the part about love
It seems so silly and Lowe.
Lowe, Lowe, Lowe
Lowe, Lowe, Lowe

Poet Laureate stuff right there.
So basically, any song ever created with the word "love" in it is up for grabs?

The song is called Low...and about 50% of the lyrics are the word 'low'. Ain't a whole lot of lovin in there, despite the word appearing a couple of times.

The chorus, though, would be a decent chanthem:
Lowe, Lowe, Lowe,
Lowe, Lowe, Lowe

deadly song - not the most upbeat though?

Jaysis that's depressing stuff. Something more cheerful perhaps?

All you need is Lowe. Bah ba bada ba

More like I suppose. With a brass section in the crowd, could be fun.

Might alienate the other players though.

Lowe is all you need
Lowe is all you need
If I've understood your suggestion then it's the standout one!

Lads, Lowe was brilliant but Fardy was magnificent. He was mom by a street.

[wixfjord]

The move that Fardy instigated in the last 10/15 minutes, where he took the ball, disguised a pass inside and did a one handed pass outside was pure class.
His handling and movement is fantastic.

I'm with you there: Lowe made some howlers early in the game but really grew into it, not just the meat pies but worked really hard.

Fardy on the other hand just gets better every time I see him. What a pair of players. It really is a long time since we've had a pair of foreign signings of that calibre.

[Dave Cahill]

There you go lads


In fairness, he has been top class so far!

[sunshiner1]

Didn't get to see the game because of work. Did Abdaladze get on? If so how did he play?

He demolished their scrum in the last 10mins about 7m from our line

Fardy definitely and obviously Lowe is in "one swallow etc" just now.
However does the fact that Leinster have got their mojo back make it easier to recruit a better quality of NIQ?
