Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread
ROG I COACHED Scott Barrett at the Crusaders, a brilliant fella. I had the pleasure too of meeting his parents, who raised good lads. The Barretts are proper rugby folk and no one should be thinking on the basis of the short time frame that Jordie Barrett won’t make a big difference next season at L...

Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread
Probably over the last 20 years but clearly not the case in the last 5 or so. I'd be fairly certain there have been more UIster produced players capped over the past 5 years than Connacht. In the past 5 years (since summer 2019): Ulster (5) - Stewart, Lowry, O'Toole, Hume, Baloucoune, Connacht (3) ...

Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread
The performance last weekend also put an end to the notion that James Ryan going off injured lost Leinster the final. It had an impact no doubt, but La Rochelle just stepped up a gear that Leinster couldn’t match at the time. Look, I know you're a bit of a Ryan weirdo, but no it absolutely doesn't....
