Re: LRZ
The punters & kickers have the best chances of actually making it. Those GAA boys who kick all day in gale force winds can make the switch effortlessly. GAA have worried about the player drain to Aussie Rules but the NFL is a bigger threat. 900k a year will see a lot more try out. How many GAA kick...

Re: LRZ
Have to agree Henry. might be worth the trip for his 1st game. The reaction on his training etc have been excellent. I feel better than Christian Wade. As an aside Wade tried to commentate on a French game & proved he knows SFA of RU he played for what 10+yrs. Good luck to LRZ I hope he succeeds. Cr...

Re: Leinster vs Munster, May 13th, 5.30pm
Leinster turned up with a 2nd string & Munster went back to the days of guts rugby with zero flair. That was their final with a deserved last grasp drop goal win. Sadly Munster will despite a week off get ripped by Stormers in CT. I can see Leinster ending a season with no trophy. Bad management de...

Re: London Irish Nearly Gone.....?
Not if they’d started 30 years. Ago. Even a push from Sarries gets them 60,000 at WHL with it being convenient to get to and not a shed.

Re: English tier 2 club teams could be replaced by reserves
The RFU seems to be fixated on top down thinking and obsessively focused on supporting the elite rather than much of the grassroots game. I'd say there is a case for more flexible short loan systems form top clubs. Oh and actually support the Championship. Also if they want fewer stagnating academy...
