Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread
You call it falling asleep, I call it arrogance It's understandable, players didn't want to get injured and miss the final... That's the impression Prendergalhast gave when he pulled out of the tap tackle on Freeman. actively withdrew his arm. :lol: Very little gives me more pleasure than seeing th...

Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread
Id say all of Wallace's starting front row will make Ulster academy. Some big mobile men.

Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread
Any idea on what Wallace lads are in camp? I don't expect we will hear anything on squads until they are chosen which may be a week or two. Rodgers, Gould, Fitzsimmons and Moore. McDonagh will be in the U19s and think that camp squad is in a couple of weeks. What about Warwick? They had a decent 13...

Re: Ulster schools cup thread
Delighted with that Wallace result. Tough one to take last year but that was as one sided a match I have seen from either team, second half especially, RBAI got totally humbled and great to see. The Wallace pack was completely dominant, the 7 had a super game, line out work was unbelievable. Brillia...

Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread
It’s an utter disgrace and you guys are the antithesis of what Irish rugby represents. Richie Murphy, our principal selector, is from Dublin. 40points in one half is pathetic.
