Re: 2023/2024 European Champions Cup
Given that there's only one or two stadia that even occasionally hold a rugby match that are any bigger, this would be true of virtually any team. And whilst Leinster have played at Croke Park (just the once?) before, that was back in 2009, so not desperately relevant Anyway the attendance target t...

Re: URCR14 Bulls vs Munster
It'll likely be the strongest team/23 we've been able to put out all season, but it'll be a big ask to win in Loftus against an in-form Bulls team. It's a pity they left all their Boks at home last week.feckwanker wrote: ↑Thu Apr 18, 2024 10:21 am All or nothing in the URC for Munster now but I don't think we can do it.

For what it's worth, I'm not against this kind of signing. I think it'll be good for the league and it's good to see that these kind of players want to play in Ireland. It is of course frustrating that the gap between Leinster and the other 3 is big and only getting bigger. Obviously that's not Lein...
