Didn’t do James Coburn any harm in the Magnificent Seven.
Yeah I know he got killed in the end but boy was he cool.
He also was one of the few to make it in the Great Escape

The scene where Chris recruits him was brilliant.
"you lost" or was it "I won"?
Mirror, Mirror on the Wall who's the greatest player of them all? It is Drico your majesty.
If the weather is so bad, RK is a big loss for us I think.
Larmour showed in Toulouse he has a lot to learn positionally (and fair enough), and RK showed in Bath why he's so valuable to us.
Rhys Priestland was on BT last week and talked a lot about how Leinster have a strange defensive set up where RK is the only man covering the whole backfield a lot of the time. He said Bath would try to exploit that.
I think they'll try to do something similar this weekend, hopefully our back three are up to it.
Biggest obstacle might be the, unusual, south-easterly wind which will blow right down the pitch and could make it a game of two halves.
Very happy with back-row and mid-field. Less happy without RK at the back. Really looking forward to our pack setting down a marker and let's take it from there.
Leinster and Ireland. We are vulnerable to kicks behind without Rob. His highlights reel is all the times the opposition look up and bring it into contact again lacking options.

Maybe this will help.
Early days but 5-10 Toulouse v Wasps.
Try a piece after about 20 minutes.
No idea what the conditions are like but I think South of France is getting the same as we're having.
Oops just gone 12-10.
More oops 19-10.Toulouse already have 3 tries and it's not HT yet.
HT 22-20 interesting.

Raining stair rods there too.

"Oh, I used to be disgusted, and now I try to be amused!"
Wasps gave Toulouse a game for 65 or so minutes, but have pulled away for a bonus point win [DISAPPOINTED FACE] They looked very good, especially considering the conditions.
