So Mrs W Went to pick the car up this morning. The garage were not interested in us paying cash, and gave us a better overall deal if we went PCP. No skin off our noses, so we did. In no particular order : - they had omitted the agreed discount on the new price - they had the agreed trade in wrong ...

Munster: NZ - Howlett Australia - Langford SA - Halstead Argentina - Pucciarello Can't think of anyone from another nationality that made a big contribution, to be honest.

Sadly for Munster, runaway freight trains have a nasty habit of coming to a sticky end by going off the rails and smashing into a million pieces.

Easy Leinster win.

I see Ian Madigan now plays for the Bristol Bears! The Bristol Bears!! :lol: :lol: :lol: I remember Leinster and Munster tried similar. There was some bizarre lion in a cape logo for Leinster. Were Munster called the Deers? Ulster might have been the knights? It was absolutely bizarre. Not a first ...

it was a fairly full strength team this time though - Ma Nonu was rested for Munster clash......himself and bastardo weigh about the same as our current 11-15

Is still ludicrous. Why don't they let the 9 stand level with the second row? The ball should be shoved straight down the middle of the tunnel. Getting "one against the head" is impossible now. The hooker these days is a third prop at the scrum. Long gone are the days when to play hooker meant hook...

Despite the good record of Schmidt (and the fact he is an excellent coach) I have had issues with a lot of teams he has picked. Maybe it's just the moany nature of Irish people, I don't know! :D Happy with that team and squad though. Very positive selection of Ryan, Luke McGrath as benching 9, John...

Munster team named. Head Coach Johann van Graan has named his first Champions Cup match-day squad with returning internationals Peter O’Mahony, CJ Stander, Dave Kilcoyne, Conor Murray and Andrew Conway all included for Saturday’s Thomond Park round 3 encounter against Leicester Tigers (7.45pm). The ...

I’m looking to get someone a 1 day or weekend cookery course as a Christmas gift. Anyone got any recommendations? A colleague suggested Dublin cookery school in Blackrock but they’re very expensive, want 160 for a 1 day course when you’re part of a group. Is this normal or are there good courses fo...

I'm going to Scotland, probably by boat at the end of the month, do I need identification for my kids, ages 10 and 4? By boat no, but you as the driver do. Sorry, forgot I went from Dublin where you do need ID - at least you do on P&O. Didn't need it on Stena on way back from Liverpool to Belfast. ...

[quote="Luckycharmer"][quote="rfurlong"]I'll be disappointed if Byrne isn't named as back up FH. With Jackson out of commission, we need another dedicated FH in the squad alongside Sexton. I don't want to see Carberry or Scannell at 10 at any stage of a match if it can be avoided. Also, goal-kickin...

That's shite. Still remember him hopping over the line on one foot on that tour to hell. RIP. Loved this quote of his just after scoring that try from the obituary in today's Indo: "Hey Kirwan, call yourself the best winger in the world? You couldn't even tackle a cripple." Kirwan's reply is not re...

So, none of the replacement players got on except for a YC prop replacement and HIA which wasn't lasting. Joke really.

Where was Payne? Thought he was supposed to be benching?

Was Huppert the one who wrote that letter to Munster supporters where he had a full on tantrum? “Enough is enough you no talent tossers.

Well well well, where are the people who were apoplectic with rage over a rumour Ferg was benching? :lol: ffs lads. Decent team, happy to see Payne at FB, perhaps that's the end of Rob as we know it.

There's a wiki page that breaks down the game pretty well. I would recommend watching one of the youtubers otherwise you'll be pretty lost pretty quick. Arumba07 has some of the best beginners guides to the game. Start off as one of the irish leaders. It's one of the easiest starts as you have a bit...

Really hope he does go with Dillane and then Henderson to 6. Maybe with Ruddock at 7. I like Jordi, but I really can't see him putting 2 performances like Saturday in a row. Did Victor and Axel both start in the RWC03 game against Argentina? I know Quinlan played 7, and I'm trying to work out what ...

I said it on Saturday but my God SA are a bloody stupid rugby nation, I've not seen the level of butchery they showed just before half time since I worked in a cookery school. Jackson and Murray were involved in 3 tackles forcing them into touch outwide when they should have scored, NZ or Aus would...
