Re: Leinster Worlds best supported club team- The people's team!
So what's the solution here? Cap the number of supporters who are allowed attend Leinster games over the course of the season? Gate fees for Leinster games get rerouted to the other provinces? This kind of success represents a grave threat to Irish rugby and needs to be addressed. A complete overha...

Re: Jordie Barrett to Leinster !
NZ can do the draft system easier than us because it's far easier for an Irish player to live in England/France and maintain connections to family than it is for NZers.

Re: Jordie Barrett to Leinster !
The draft system is a daft idea. Young lads will be shipped off to the four corners of Ireland when they just want to stay in Dublin with their mates, say fudge this and go to France. Also it will dilute provincial identity which is diluted enough as it is. I find the Kiwi system crazy. The three B...

Its a combination of the M50 being at capacity and the closeness of the junctions, and of course selfish drivers.

Similarly for Snyman. And by funny, I ...
