Damn North's ACL
North was only picked at 13 as he wasn’t good enough to get in the wing for Wales.
If we were even contemplating playing him at 13 for the Lions we are even more fûcked than I was thinking we were.

Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread

Seeing a few people online suggest that Hill offers more power than Ryan and that's what Gatland has gone for, probably true that Ryan isn't as powerful as most (if not all) of the secondrows selected, is this something he'll need to work on with bulking up because he does have a rangy frame? Yes. ...

Unless the tour is going to be sponsored by Veet I don’t get why AWJ is even on the plane never mind captain. Ok, you need a bit of experience but I’m not sure they had to look up names in the Bible to find a captain. I’m sure the Boks will find somebody to feel him up a bit. Bakkies might even come...
