Toulouse vs Leinster

[ronk]

You forgot distance, twice.

That's a bit misleading but thanks for pointing out the fact that there was an error in the original equation I posted.
I forgot to point out in the equation that Gm1m2 should be divided by d**2.
You could argue that d**2 = d*d however d**2 is the normal nomenclature.

So for clarity F = (Gm1m2)/d**2 where d is the distance between the two masses.

d^2 in C, Java and Excel
d**2 in FORTRAN and Python

Is there going to be an OLSC Toulouse guide for this weekend? where the Leinster fans meeting up?

Yep https://www.leinsterrugby.ie/download-t ... -toulouse/

Boooom, My hotel is around the corner from the Bar!

Just around the corner from the Ibis Toulouse Centre.

If I went to mass tomorrow, the distance between my two masses would be about 15 years (unless you're counting weddings).

When is the team announced? I'm sick of getting depressed about the IRFU pillaging us on behalf of Shelbyville.

Rob K(injury) only change from last week according to Des Berry.

So VDF's knee is ok and Leavy's isn't?
Based on him receiving treatment and hobbling, I'd say VDF is playing through an injury and we mightn't see him again until December.
Would have thought Fardy would start.

Who does Des have for Rob? Dave?

[Lar]

Jordan I believe.

No idea, all he said was Rob was to be the only change.

Which of course begs the question as to who starts at 14?

[wixfjord]

Must be Ferg starting 14 then surely?

Surprised by that I must say, thought we might've seen McGrath, Tracy, Fardy or SOB come in.

[Leoslovechild]

Tomane at 14 for Rob? He doesn't say no changes to the starting 15 just that the squad bar Rob are fine so could easily be some changes to the starting 15

[Lar]

And he does suggest indirectly admittedly that Fardy may start

Breaking: 5 week ban for Jerome Kaino. 4 week ban for Lucas Pointud

Toulouse challenging Kaino's ban. To quote from MK on twitter: Toulouse are appealing Jerome Kaino's five-week ban as they don't believe there was a 'clear and obvious' act of foul play. They say the ban was 'about feelings and not about proven facts.'

Given WR are hot on reducing impacts around the head area etc, interesting to see how that appeal will go.

[LeinsterLeader]

Joe T to start on the wing apparently

[wixfjord]

From @jamesonrugby, a journo who tweets MidOl stories in English:

Team news and predictions: and it's not the best news for @stadetoulousain. Kaino, Pointud, Fa'aselele suspended; Gray, Mermoz, Baille, Neti, Galan, Belan, Fouyssac injured.

Tomane isn't going to be a crowd pleaser in that selection but I guess the coaches think he can do a job. Like he did for the wobblies.

McFadden must be injured. Dave must be pretty depressed not to make the 23.
Adam Byrne must be the player they are going to announce will leave Leinster.

Very strong squad again. You'd have to fancy us based on all the players they are missing.

I thought the solidity of Dave Kearney might have got him the wing spot after all the good reviews he got from the A match in Donnybrook.

That back three look scary with the ball but also a bit scary without it!

Maks Van Dyk, ex- Leinster injury cover prop.
