Re: 1872 Cup Champions
As Alan Dymock said on twitter, look at how many Scottish capped 7s players are in that Edinburgh side.
I can count 10 of the 23 that have I think. Maybe more.

Could be a stroke of genius with Graham at FB. Looking forward to it.

Hoyland is a bit out of the blue. Is Fife injured? Big vote of confidence in Charlie Shiel.

That's a decent side. That back row and bench
Who's covering lock in worst case scenario?

I’d have said Bradbury covering. Anyway, bring ‘em on. Here’s hoping for 40k plus (and a win!).

Mind numbingly poor by Pyrgos. Atrociously bad.

Re: 1872 Cup Champions
Graham smashing Munster players out of rucks is great to watch. He’s Watson-esque in his approach to the game and winning physical battles that he shouldn’t.

Real weak from Pyrgos and Schoeman there.

I love Shoeman. A bit of the old school about him.

Re: 1872 Cup Champions
Really had to come away from that period with some points. That’s going to give Munster a big lift.

Bar a couple of under throws Rambo has been excellent.

Re: 1872 Cup Champions
Yep. Front row have put in some massive moments. Pyrgos keeps seemingly just flinging it to the blindside without seeing if anybody is there and they just get isolated out on the wing time and again when the forwards are starting to tire.

Ah. Yes. Another massive moment from Schoeman...

Re: 1872 Cup Champions
Why the fuck are they consistently going to the front with no movement when there’s a Munster player stood a foot ahead of the jumper? It’s infuriating. Scotland do the same. Gilchrist has to shoulder that surely.
