Henry to win the first 2 tomorrow. Zarak the Brave ew in the Champion hurdle and Embassy Gardens in the last.

Henshaw has been fantastic

mickie

Thanks Cam. Appreciate the thorough response.

I am in negotiations to purchase a site at home and even though it was posted as offers subject to planning approval the auctioneer is now stating that he is accepting clean offers only. Is that allowed? Our bid is 20% over ask.

If only there was a match thread for this drivel ...

I'm taking the old fella to Toulon in the morning. Flying to Nice and driving down. I was looking forward to it for ages, then got worried with all the injuries piling up, but I'm buzzing again now with that side. He turns 86 at the end of the month so I'm not sure how many more of these big away d...

My first look at Culhane the last couple of weeks, and I like what I see. The Leinster academy backrow production line continues. Culhane is a Glin man (and my second cousin); a stamp of quality that negates any malign Leinster academy influence. Zappa was his father the injured captain of the St M...

O'Connell will be ffn furious

mickie

Herring has been woeful

mickie

Ireland don't look fit. POM and Beirne look 5kgs overweight.

mickie

Would Mark McCall not be ahead of him?

Road bowling. Played mainly in county Cork and Armagh. It's played on rural roads and the winner is who can get to the finish line in the least amount of throws. In Cork it's called bowling but the 'ow' part is pronounced like the 'ow' in wow. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/B55T6OFCMAMr94J?format=jpg&...

Yup, he's done the hard yards to get this.
First Kerryman to win one according to the headlines?

Sexton is from Listowel

Stay classy Leinster fans. Booing a stop in play for a lad being knocked out.ffs.

My wife bumped into Steve in a hotel lobby when we first moved to Chicago. Still retains the pic.

We used to meet him at a chipper on the corner of Montrose and Central on the way home from the Sixpenny. Sound man

Breakdown and lineout a complete lottery.

Backrow way off the pace

Waiting anxiously outside Thomond Park, some langer brought a guitar and only knows wonderwall.

Also having the hurling starting in 90mins only 2 miles away was awesome scheduling.

Looking for a nice spot in Clifton this weekend?

mickie

Heard last night that Flannery let it be know he was interested in the Connacht job but wasn't even interviewed.

mickie

For all the defensive frailties being discussed I'm surprised Lowe hasn't been mentioned more. He bites down, give up the outside channel and doesn't have the pace to recover.

mickie

I really don’t rate Conan. Has had 18 mths of good form out of nowhere. Think we have a lot better options and shifting Doris from 8 isn’t ideal. Thought Casey and Byrne started well but struggled badly in 2nd half. Wasn't really out of nowhere, he just started applying himself more. He was poor al...

mickie

Conan miles off it so far

The club game in Ulster will never have the resources to bring through players in a similar manner to Dublin's private schools, they largely still rely on grammar school educated and trained players filling out their ranks from u20s onwards, it's why at under 16 level we only have 8 clubs in the le...

That strike rate for Coombes is nutz. 32 tries in 65 games for Munster.

mickie

What is the timeline on Farrells court case? Will he ever play for Munster again?

mickie

So Herring and Casey to start now!

It would have been nice if Wycherley was played more by Munster.

What's the timeline on Loughman's return?

mickie

Has anyone found the match on youtube, or something? I missed it today and it turns out Virgin don't have a catch up service. I'd prefer to watch the full thing than some nobby highlights package. My friend says this site might be useful on YouTube; https://youtube.com/watch?v=MTkDrQC0F-0&feature=s...

as did to Anthony Foleys son and nephew.

About ffn time they get their shit together Bayern. Is Neil Cronin coaching?

mickie

Probably a mental bet but I just put $100 @ 12/1. Right side of the draw, really only have Endland to beat to make a final.

mickie

:D For the life of me, I'll never understand the fuss about Carbery. 1-2 seasons for Leinster when he was quality and G Henry said he was good. Been living off that since. Has actually done a good job finishing big games for Ireland (ie kicking a penalty vs NZ every other year). I’ve no confidence ...

mickie

So true to form Anderson Coopers piece on 6o minutes is a complete fluff piece

mickie

I like Nash I have to say but any two of him, Daly or Liam Coombes would be my preference before Earls and Zebo at this stage, no upside from starting them at this stage in big games.....Fekitoa probably had his best game yet for us tonight but it still wasn't anything to get excited about to be ho...

Just scanned the42's article about his auto bio. Wouldn't have guessed. Reads like an ulster player. We’ll take him, phenomenal player. Probably Irelands greatest ever 7, just needs a good Lions tour to pip him ahead of SOB. Did he not go to a Protestant faith based school? Wally better than both.

mickie

Anyone watch the Irish sports star awards on sat night, they had an interview with James Culhane they were asking him if he hoped to get in the 6ns squad. They obviously do zero research he hasn't even played a minute yet for Leinster senior team! He looked big in person especially in comparison to...

100% correct. For me the greatest Irish wasted talent. The murdering prick.

Didn't realize 40 coats was still coaching

He didn't feel that way about Creevy a few years back. He would have provided the dog that team has been lacking the last few years.
