Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread

Boogate would be the perfect epilogue to this saga. The media and pundits, having blown so much smoke up ROG's arse will now have to objectively ask the question: "is he a dickhead?" Once again, talk of an epilogue. 😂 ROG has two back to back European medals against you in two finals. Yesterday was...

Re: Heineken cup quarter final - Bordeaux vs Harlequins

There were so many good players on that LI team. They were going places. Shame they were allowed to go bust. Yep, the last season they were playing some great stuff going forward. Their defence was leaky though and they ended up in some crazy high scoring games. *Second best defence in the league l...

Zebo didn't look great on the highlights. Poor Zebo looked out of sorts. He is still a fan favourite given the ‘Zeeebo’ chants at the game but he has no pace anymore and got skinned by Hendys final Northampton try at the end. Saints fans obviously very happy but you got the impression they were alm...

John Ryan suspended for 3 games. Disaster for us with Jager and Salasicknote already out. There's no 'could get' about this one.
