Re: Rugby NAMA thread Revisited Rugby
Coveney hands down for me. His brother isn't him. Coveney plays into the anti FG narrative. I think he'd be a fine leader and would normally be a shoo in but it's harder to get at Harris. It's about time FG stopped trying to catch left leaning votes that won't ever vote for them regardless. Stick u...

Re: Rugby NAMA thread Revisited Rugby
On balance I don't think that makes sense but there's certainly an argument for it. He's overseen an Exodus of elected senior faces which likely would have seen any other leader of any other party on a very sticky wicket... As Cannon says, that's more down to how miserable it is being a politician ...

Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread
We had a few players looking tired towards the end of the Championship. With the RWC extending the early part of the season, we could have done better with squad rotation. e.g. Beirne and Doris on the bench for Scotland. Henderson and Conan to start - even Baird at lock if they really felt the Jokk...

Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread
Is Henderson injured or was he dropped for Baird? Didn’t make a difference anyway. Didn’t need him. No2 to no 5 is some fall from grace though. Nordie bait aside. Beirne looks like he needed a rest. Would have been wise to start Henderson against Scotland. We had a few players looking tired towards...

Re: Waterboys crossing the line
I think it's just symptomatic of the mess the laws are in with particular areas of the game and the inconsistent application (or appearance thereof) of them. Huh? What are you talking about? It seems you want more arbitrary penalties that cancel tries for technicalities that had no bearing on play,...

Re: The Official and ONLY Ireland v Scotland Match thread
At the risk of provoking more Irish sensitivity, would it be wrong to question whether the emptiness of the victory is illustrated by the focus on little ol’ me? I would compare you to a dangleberry.

Re: Waterboys crossing the line
Too many people on the pitch a lot now. The one that irks me most is when a try is scored and the subs rush in. A law should be made that of they are within 20m of a try being scored by their team it's automatically disallowed and a 5m penalty to the defending side Just don't allow them to 'warm up...

Not sure that’s going to happen. They’ve laboured to a championship against five very poor sides. Perhaps it’s a hangover from the RWC.

Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread
We also need to look beyond Leinster in terms of some of our extended squad players. For whatever reason the default position when there's a few injuries seems to be to call in a squad player from Leinster. But if this tournament shows us anything, it's that these lads - Frawley, Larmour, Harry Byr...

Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread
Thinking that our style of rugby requires a serious amount of energy and if we are not at 90% plus in terms of this we can't impose our attacking game.
What's the solution? Rotate players more in tournaments?

Re: The Official and ONLY Ireland v Scotland Match thread
Bullshit with the on fieed decision not matching the facts of the situation so f**king up the decision.
Makes absolutely no sense. If going to the TMO have no onfield decision and let the evidence speak for itself.

Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread
Need to start rotating more- Beirne looks tired, know it's hindsight now but Henderson starting may have brought some freshness.
Hopefully he goes to the bench early.
