Jacob Stockdale and Gavin Coombes will definitely get called up to the Lions. Any moment now.

Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread

I think Williams could be a bolter for the test side if there's any doubt about Gibson-Park. I think he did a good JGP impression off the bench against the Pumas where as Mitchell didn't really do too much. Of the 9's there he's the closest to a JGP type player, not sure he's as robust around the p...

Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread

Baird is arguably the best athlete in Irish rugby right now, but for me I don’t think Ireland or Leinster are playing him in a way that gets the most out of him. It’s frustrating seeing Conan or POM pop up in a wide channel when if you put Baird in the same situation he has the gas to turn go-forwa...

Re: Leinster match thread

In a nutshell, too many Leinster players cruising and happy to be there, no sense of hunger or urgency. None of them are scared of losing their place in the squad. No leadership on display in terms of dictating how we play the game. Too often going widectoo early, on other occasions too much one ou...

Why? Or how? Resting frontline players too much rather than keeping them sharp for the big games, taking our eye off the league and ending up with nothing at the end of the season.
