Re: Rugby NAMA thread Revisited Rugby
It's a pretty open and shut case if what he did was theft Duff. Garda investigation exonerated him too. I just find it hard to believe it would go this far, being reported by a colleague, a dawn raid on his house etc , if there wasn’t more to it - maybe there isn’t but it’s sensible to await the fi...

Re: Rugby NAMA thread Revisited Rugby
The DPP found that there was no case to answer. The inquiry exonerated him of any wrongdoing. What more do you want? The DPP make decisions based on the threshold for a criminal prosecution- they weigh up the nature of the crime, the resources required to bring it to trial, and the likely result at...

Re: Rugby NAMA thread Revisited Rugby
Don't think it's particularly odd. At the time, he was going to have the bike for a couple of weeks, it would have gone back, been auctioned off and no one gets hurt. Even if it's a Garda doing something for a friend, it wasn't particularly serious. But it doesn't seem these two were close other th...

Re: Rugby NAMA thread Revisited Rugby
Gardai get involved in all manner of community policing, much more so outside the cities to be fair. You have to remember this was the start of lockdown, he loaned a bike which was unclaimed for years to a person who had medical issues and needed the bike for his health. When I first brought this u...

This Garda bicycle case really sums up the problem the country faces at the moment.

Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread
Personally I think Larmour looked like he was really nervous. Looked closer to his 1st cap than his 32nd. Tbf, the whole team looked nervous so he wasn't helped much there by the first team. I feel really sorry for him to be honest. Never seems comfortable- and full back is one hoor of a position i...

Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread
Thought Larmour did quite a lot of work, he was in a lot of rucks and actually wasn't terrible there. He's about the 5th or 6th choice fullback, he's clearly not threatening the first team but if we had a full team of 5th or 6th choice players who could perform like that I wouldn't be overly upset....

Aki will be a bigger loss. We need to get a poach in for an islander. 5yrs now, you need to target them out of school like the French.

Re: The Official and ONLY Ireland v Scotland Match thread
I don’t think you’re disagreeing with me; I don’t think any of our players should be playing 320+ minutes of a 400 minute campaign. So yes, we should be moving pieces around, giving lads a week off here or there, so that when they come back in, like Bealham today, they’re chomping at the bit. Beirn...
