Toulouse vs Bourdeaux

There can't be a more heartbreaking moment than the final kick of this game. Bourdeaux often had the better of this game but found themselves eight points adrift with time running out on the clock.

They managed a try, which meant a penalty would be enough to grab a win for a place in the play-offs. A line-out looked like giving them a good position but they lost it, and Toby Flood booted the ball upfield to clear. But it went dead! That meant a scrum back in Toulouse territory. And Bourdeaux won a penalty from it straight in front of the posts with only seconds left. Beauxis had a simple kick to win but he pushed it wide.

Heartbreak.

When you can't take advantage of playing against 14 men for most of the match you don't deserve to win.

Can't argue with that.

Neither can I and it's not the first time that we lead against team playing at 14 and still manage to lose (happened vs montpelier and stade francais I think).
Bloody hopeless season full of inconsistencies. Not sure I want to see in the CHamp Cup (doubt they win the playoff anyway): the price to pay might to high and relegation is always close.
