3 phases is a great achievement in a rugby game. at least 33 passes/pick ups without a drop, 33 rucks without being penalised for holding on or illegal rucking techniques, supreme organisation and discipline and great fitness.
In 2009 Ireland defeated -England , Scotland , Wales , Italy , France , South Africa , Argentina and this year either Leinster or Munster will win the Heineken
The point of the game is to WIN . If you like to ponce about in style maybe some commentators here might like to try ballet or opera . Shower of ninnies !
rugby is a spirit. granted, forwards are part of this spirit, they have to do an incredible job to make the team win, but look at guys like Mc Caw, collins, nyanga... they can do other things that what munster men do in this video. in ireland you have a lot of players such as wallace that can do that but you don't use them. Come on man, don't be so nationalist and watch AB games...
Rugby is not a spirit it's a game and has to be played depending on the conditions .South Africans tend to play on hard ground -Ireland /Scotland /Wales and England generally play on soft ground which in the rain turns to mud .
The All Blacks are a great team no question . First up next week Ireland face Italy to defend the championship . Italy are improving but they're not there yet .
i love this part of rugby, i saw 77 phases at the game between france and NZ in the 2007 world cup. what half scrum!! i think hes the best. GO MUNSTER
That's your perspective, I see a team that just completed 33 phases which is nearly impossible to do without giving a penalty or loosing the ball. That's why Perpignan lost their first game against Munster in the H-Cup they don't have the professionalism and discipline Munster do.
Notice the mud ? When the conditions are wet it's tough to play open rugby . It's grind and grind and hold the ball to win . well done Munster -next european champs !
even when it's rainy, Toulouse plays open rugby, all blacks too. And besides, Toulouse = best europe team, All Blacks = best team in the whole fuckin world. So watch more rugby darling, or buy a color TV
Like it or not, rugby's outcome is decided by forwards and points by the backs. This year's 3N, the AB dreamed of running around the Boks and got stuffed. The French and the Aussie on the other came out, stuff them up front and beat them.
The AB are a good side no doubt, but you need to sort out your team selection.
Why is Toulouse the best rugby team in Europe? They won 3 HCs but past is past, they're not even the top French side anymore.
Playing open in the rain is one thing, playing open on mud is different. I play in Italy, the ground stays hard most of the time even if it rains, that's not the case in Ireland and the UK.
Don't judge people you don't know. For the record I'm Irish and I played rugby for ten years and I like Munster. There are simply loads of far more exciting clips of rugby on youtube than this.
Doolittlealot - I personally think the 33 phases is a thing of beauty. Anyway if you want to look at more 'execiting' rugby from Munster, do a search for this: Highlights of Munster's 2008/09 rugby season.
Matty - surely you thought it was Wales - or hadn't you noticed that one of the teams in this video is wearing red shirts and at the receiving end of a thumping!
Wales are the current six nations champions, and triple crown winners. Do you know what that means? it means they BEAT england, and the other 4 teams, and DIDNT get a thumping. and i agree with matt, new zealand are the only team of thumping wales - but they can thump anyone.
Tom - most people associate Wales with red shirts and England with white shirts. The team in red here in this video is a Welsh 'regional' team.
Wales have a fine national team - just bear in mind though that after winning a GS in 2005, in 2006 they won the Wooden Spoon. Pride before a fall and all of that.
Pure brilliance. Pity the ELVS have destroyed the game. Anyone who thinks this is boring doesn't know their rugby because this, this is pure brilliance.
in the wet weather too, thats rugby forward play at its finest
