Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread
He'd always throw one or two into the ground or over the head. But that was because he was the first Leinster SH to pass as he got to ruck. That, allied to his prowess as an actual rugby player, is what made him. JGP has taken that MO and raised the bar, and I expect young Gunne to raise it further...

Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread
Its not whether the calls right, there was a knock on from cooney prior to ulcers try and our captain asked for it to be reviewed and it wasn't. Adamson was gagging to review the last play, its so f**king corrupt. This si why we want out of the league, not because we think we'd be more successful a...

Could you imagine the frothing by the brave and the faithful if this was back in '08 or '09 when Munster were contributing the lions share of players to the national team, if a revision of the central contract system was brought in then? :?

Didn't you hockey them in Cardiff recently. We basically had a second string side out. Sheridan is going to be a serious operator for Ulster. He’s a real workhorse. Very impressed by Postlewaithe.
