Munster beat you twice in Cape Town last season.

There are few places better than Ennis during a Munster championship game. Stadium is smack bang in the centre of the town and the atmosphere is electric. Heart says Limerick but feel Clare will have too much for us.

Hopefully we can back that up against Lions next week. They're playing good rugby lately and it will be just as tough as the Bulls today, but thankfully it should be a good 8-10 degrees cooler while we're playing (5pm kick off) than it was for Leinster earlier. Where are the Lions from? Is it at al...

Wow. Stormers not themselves this season.

So it turns out that was the first win for any European team since they joined the league (21 wins on the bounce).

In a period where we've been far from the finished article, that's a record to be proud of.

Apparently our 8th straight win against South African sides.

By a mile is a stretch as we've had some brilliant performances, but he's definitely up there.

Munster-fogs

So slow from Murray on the line there! Certain try if he hadn't dilly dallied. Anyway, bonus point from him.

Munster-fogs

Waste of a kick from Frisch.

Munster-fogs

Worrying listening to Jackman there about the severity of Kleyns injury. Sounds fairly serious. Would be just our luck to lose him, having picked him over Snyman.

Munster-fogs

Good man Hodnett.

Story of our season. Well in it or even commanding a game at half time and then we fall apart in the last 40.

It's happening again.

Munster-fogs

If that try wasn't scored Loughman was in the bin.

Munster-fogs

Snyman is comfortably our best player. Every time he touches the ball he makes shit happen. Absolute travesty he's barely played in the last 4 years. Kendellan actually playing quite well too.

Munster-fogs

We're hanging in there at least.

Munster-fogs

At least we won't be nilled.

Munster-fogs

Bulls 10 point favourites.

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...

Munster: Simon Zebo; Calvin Nash, Antoine Frisch, Alex Nankivell, Shane Daly; Jack Crowley, Conor Murray; Jeremy Loughman, Niall Scannell, Stephen Archer; RG Snyman, Tadhg Beirne (C); Peter O’Mahony, Alex Kendellen, Jack O’Donoghue.

How many more will be killed my malnutrition and starvation alone? Incredibly depressing.

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.

Will Crowe park be the highest attendance Saints have ever experienced?

Rivalry is why the provincial games get crowds. The jealousy is glorious. You mean like when 6-8,000 people show up to watch Connacht-Ulster? The system is working, so. :lol: That's the capacity at the sport ground :lol: Not to mention the fact that Connacht are building a new, bigger stadium. And ...

This thread has gone bananas since Saturday evening!

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...

Ah but Snyman was privately invested.

CHOKE Nah, Villa are a decent team. Was always a dangerous fixture. Hit the woodwork twice. 6 points off arsenal this season. Champions league football looking likely. Well ahead of United, with Tottenham just behind the big 3. Don't spend much. Watkins not really a pure striker but going for the g...

Hold on yesterday Bordeaux were the team to beat. And Northampton were deadly when they won in Limerick. Now the narrative is being framed so that it's a massive underachievement if we don't pump them. It's so fúcking transparent. :roll: Saints were deadly? GTFO. They were competent and that's all ...
