Brown Thomas park has a nice ring to it. Can we offload Rieko and make this happen?

Beshoff's to go with the chip?

I first thought this was going to be about RO'G.

Sorry if already posted, season1 of Ballard just dropped for those who like a cop show.

Ravenhill new sponsor is Affidea Whoever the hell they are Medical diagnostics. It’s a PE owned (GBL) business which does a billion € in revenue or so, but <10% of that would be in ireland so a bit of an odd one. What would their Irish marking budget be - A couple mil? It’s a good and growing busin...

Lads RO'G said guys during Lions commentary, does this mean he's eying up the Leinster job?

lorcanoworms

Got ahead of the game but all things being equal, hurling, football and soccer are safer sports that you can play for longer. Parents would of course encourage their kids to participate. What’s the drop off from schools rugby to club rugby after? Agree parents view those sports as safer. I think bi...

Nope I wouldn’t rule out people who came to the respective British & Irish countries as kids / teenagers. I'd do it by accent. Not got a british or irish accent, you ain't getting picked. Didn’t Alex Corbisiero have an American twang. Sorry Alex, you’re out. New Yoik, nearly beat Oz by himself.

Gunnes try against the Bull if the yanks saw it they'd have Macauley Culkin starring and leaving his 9th grade class to score it.

Don't want to wade too heavily into this one but if there's a hint of unfair discrimation it's probably down to some of the following: French clubs are essentially what the Gallagher sides wished they were. Successful competition, monied up and with a pretty solid fanbase they don't need to chase t...

We really are rolling in dough, ought to be a law again it.
Not so sure about the elderly French th who was otherwise looking at a minor coaching role.

Wallabies? on Lambay island.
Just googled that
Sounds cool
Would love to go and see them
There are actually kangaroos or wallabies living in the wild on the Isle of Man.

He is an unusual looking fella.
Maybe, but judging by comments in this thread, he must spend his spare time running over UK boredies' dogs.
Like an SHer, I don't think DD understands what the word nonce means.

In a nonce I heard in a play once, hope they meant period of time.

Volunteer work seems like a winner. I reckon getting involved with junior rugby would be something. Still, I reckon I’ll keep working part-time.

I finally retired just after my 73 birthday.

Whatever about anything else Hodnett is a hugely enjoyable player to watch, would have been good for the squad.

Send us that young Irish qualified outhalf and we'll call it quits. Crowley to 12 fulltime is it? I like Crowley but has weaknesses in his game - really hoping McMillan can make the best use of him. Munster's depth at 10 isn't hectic - JJ is mid 30's, Butler is ho-hum, Hicks can't make the u20's sq...

All Munster th are automatically NIQ because they play for the wrong club.

It’s a weird enough one. His insistence that Leinster players are just in a different league implies that Leinster have massively underperformed in bulls’ two knock out victories. In light of these recent victories, is it a little self serving to throw your arms in the air and say “nothing I can do...

In fairness, I did say "minimum" - well done, enjoy the celebrations.
I saw Bulls in a mess against Embra but I really thought Clarkson and our lineout were going to be destroyed.
Fair play to the subs too.
Lineout was 100%

Good, thought Leinster lost one.

lorcanoworms

Saw some pre and after chat by the Saffers commentary team, very good.

lorcanoworms

Leinster will win by between 10 and 15 points, minimum, imo. They have statistically a much, much better defence. I don't think so boss.

lorcanoworms

I don't think so boss. JGP is a blow but ye'll still have too much for what's a pretty ordinary Bulls side. If they can be beaten at home against seventh placed Northampton and struggle against Scarlets, well anything can happen. Almost seems like the old big em up so the failure seems worse.

lorcanoworms

Will be a big upset if the Bulls get it. Case of third time lucky. The wet weather should be good for Leinster's rush defence. But more scrums is probably good for the Bulls. It's hard to predict a winner. I start thinking Leinster at home with their first team should do it, but they rely on gettin...

He was smoked for the first try, rushed up, turned like milk and looked like he was running in wellies. Fk me though Penderghasts tackle attempts for the first two try's should have had him subbed.

Presume you spotted his triple tackle after hitting the post? He doesn't shirk contact at all. His technique is very poor and has regressed all season but he's not contact shy. There was a Scarlets back received the ball just standing and Sam who was beside him went to grab him and he got away from...

lorcanoworms

Agreed, and I wish/ hope to fcuk the active search for a different option remains very active. I'm not convinced Crowley will fix his kicking percentages and I'm not convinced Prendergast will sort his defence out. I suspect there's more chance of the former happening. But all eggs in these two bas...

Back to the final.. Will Clarkson start? Will any injured players get back? Back to a 6-2 bench? Presumably Osborne and Barrett at centre? I’d stick with Clarkson, the lad did well Saturday. If Ringer is back 100%, I’d expect him to be at 13. Osborne is a good player, but he’s not quick enough. The...
