If you start hearing heeving you know Ieuan is having a poopy!!

Off topic, but I quickly watched Kaizer Chiefs (our wealthiest soccer club) play in a sevens tournament.

Mkaya Ntini test bowler for SA came on wirh 4 minutes left, he handled the ball twice, got to break one tackle and had a good offload. He also made two tackles and the crowd went dilly.

It was quite awesome.

I'm glad you said that they were your wealthiest soccer club...over here the Kaizer Chiefs are a rock band from Leeds....

OK second half. Hope Toulouse continue to play badly...

I love watching non players try the sport, even if it's just touch, you tend to see someone in every game shine.

Love the fact you have to explain who the Chiefs are though

Yeah they were part of a new initiative whereby teams are invited to play in the NBM sevens tournament. Some of the Provinces take part and Kaizer Chiefs had an invite, they had a good number of retired players like Breyton Paulse and then Ntini.

Adam Jones on.

Fussell in great kick shock!

He sliced it Cari, total mishit

Kaizer is also a type of bread roll...

I honestly didn't know that.

Don't forget Kaizer Soze in The usual suspects.

How bad is this game become if we're thinking of uses for the word Kaiser!!!

Another plonker on the touchline trying to catch the ball?? Who was that??

Who was the Leicester player who got e]sent off for that this season??

It's also a type of german cheese, hence the term "The big cheese" meaning someone in charge, i.e. the king or emperor.

What a run by Fotuali'i - good phase of play from the O's, all coming from a poor Toulouse decision. Shame they didn't score there.

Jesus that yellow card was soft.

Toulouse really playing gash. Their no.6 is binned now too.

12-6 at 60 minutes.

About as soft as the first, and was that the same touch judge???

Cari

I love the way you put things... Toulouse really playing gash. Your wording paints such a picture

Walker is in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pathetic by Huget...

Bluesman - I believe "gash" is a Scots slang term...I couldn't think of anything else at that moment.

Anyhoo, the conversion bounces off the post.

17-6 at 63 minutes.

oh please tell me he scored that!

BECK??? No way did you just drop that...

You panic'd and the defender got you!!!

OH!!!! Please tell me Beck got that down before he lost it!!

oh gosh that was horrible.

Oh bollix no. The Toulouse player just knocked it out with his boot. That would have been a corker of a try if allowed.

Tolouse have been so so poor, everyone claiming the halfbacks weren't there to win it this year but there is little outside them either!!

Gash is indeed a Scots term!

One of the ones that stayed in my vocabulary since I left Scotland. And it describes Toulouses performance perfectly.

Oh, Ashley Beck so close!

In the words of Cari...

Richard Fussell is gash!!!

Compared to how he played at the Waratahs, I think Burgess is doing rather well.

Toulouse are gash. They really are.

Fussell is a funny one. He has the odd flash of brilliance but then it's usually followed by something completely stupid.

Treviso still ahead, but apparently one of their players has just been binned.

He looks sharp, but he's a little lonesome at times, noone around him tends to know what he'll do. He's trying a lot of flashy stuff whereas his basics arent there at times.

Fussell was just 10 metres out with support inside and out, simple 3 on 2 and he takes contact...

If Toulouse's defence hadn't been as good at times, the O's could easily have had four tries today. They've been within metres of a score about five or six times in this match.

Come on O's...ten minutes to go.

He's always been prone to rushing the play thats for sure, but his service has improved which resembled the profile of the harbour bridge at times. Anyway as a proud Queenslander I am going to put it down to getting out of that horrible pasty blue and into a red jumper which has improved him.

He couldn't be at a better club mnd, that pack would make me look slick at 9!!!

On another day either team couldve run in half a dozen tries each... strange game to watch, lots of oo's and aaar moments, but nothing seems to be coming off for either team.

Touch judge has made the difference with 2 yellow card calls and 10 points during those minutes is it?

Aye thats true. Osprey's have done well to contain the pack thats for sure.

Oh schitt! Not what we need. Adam Jones in the bin and a possible Toulouse try here.

13-14 over in Treviso.

This Ref is confuzzled by the scrums.

Great work Ospreys, that should carry them over the line, just deny Tolouse the LBP now!!!

This one is in the bag. Well done Ospreys.

Hang in there Ospreys!!!!

Burgess and Clerc = GASH!!!

How do you not score that? The funniest thing Ive seen in years, what a huge embarresment!!

who on earth was that running support for Burgess?!? that was woeful!!!

Nice one O's!
