Munster myths dispelled mainly by Redder about Leinster having advantage of most of their players going to fee paying single sex (bit weird) schools. Munster team that started against Saints and were the players came from, 9 Munster lads 6 went to fee paying schools, over half went to single sex sc...

Did Murray kick that last possession away a bit too quickly? Maybe they feared conceding the pen but think they could have taken another couple phases out of it. They could have taken more than a couple of phases out of it! I thought they were going to run the clock down. Shocking from Murray. Murr...

burn :lol: They don't kick off same time, France England starts at 9pm local time...... https://www.world.rugby/match/930fc0ea-d59c-47de-98ae-f00ceb38d47d Still though , I’d imagine England will know they need a BP. Ireland will beat Scotland by 40+ That would have to be their mentality from the ge...

It will depend how the game plays out. For instance if Ireland win by 20 then England will know at half time that a four point win will do. Could lead to them taking kicks at goal rather than risking going for tries in the second half etc. Whereas if Ireland win by 40+ then England will know they h...

Series 2 is excellent too and explores the arc around the death of Joe's son that hangs over series 1....haven't seen anyone mention yet that Robert redford and George R.R Martin are actually exec producers on it.....I'd recommend watching Joe Pickett (paramount) too if you've enjoyed DW, it's basi...

Dark Wind is the most fun cop thing I’ve seen for sometime and does the whole indigenous ooga booga stuff far better than True Detective.

He played like a lad just back from injury and they half broke him. Ah jaysus Got cut above the eye in second half, went off, came back for 5 mins and went off again. I think he got treatment 4 times between his hand and head, had HIA but still managed some big moments in the game but certainly did...

Yep certainly would not have begrudged an Italian win Agreed that Italy deserved to win but not even being particularly critical of our lads. Italy were very good and will feel very unfortunate not to come away with the win. Ben O'Connor was very impressive though. He'll have a good career. Not con...

That was inevitable they'd push us off that scrum

Premier Red

We appear to be just over exuberant when we get into the red zone and making silly mistakes from forcing it plus we seem to be completely butchering their kick offs giving them easy access to our 22..... Must also say, Ben O'Connor having really good game and Luke Murphy at 8, still 19 so assume he...

Is the big Wycherley (sp?) injured? Munster badly needed another lock out there today. yeah Fineen is injured too.... There you go. Munster are lacking too much experience/ quality/ power due to an unfortunate array of injuries at the same time. They’ve done well enough to cope and also considering...

What’s Munster’s current injury update going into today? It was 20 odd players 2 weeks ago. Munster would have won that game hands down with the few of these key players back. Lacked experience to the bench today. Jean Kleyn (eye) RG Snyman (chest/shoulder) Mike Haley (hip) Jack O’Donoghue (knee) D...

If Tadgh Beirne brings his recent Munster form into the Ireland team we’re in trouble . Maybe the captaincy doesn’t suit him I don’t know but there’s definitely a decline in his performances of late . On form he wouldn’t make the Ireland matchday squad . You'd have to give Beirne a pass as he's con...

Ahern's loss to Munster was bigger impact than the resultant red but we should have played territory, instead it was St's who did exactly that to us...very disappointing collapse again....some kicking display from their 10 though and lawes was incredible so congrats to Northampton, deserved win in t...

Hope to Christ that isn't part of the half time team talk. As daft as it feels given Saints showing, tries will mean the difference between travelling to a disinterested French side, rematch with JVG or 12,000 mile round trip to Joburg.

In today's game for sure but at the time he was playing locks were expected to be more athletic. France were already doing it. The likes of Nallet was only 6'4 with Bonnaire/Ouedgraogo jumping in the lineout for him. Quinnie was on the way out at that stage. Don't remeber that era Munster backrow b...

Actually liking the front row options now, just not seeing Archer makes it much more palatable. Saints going for a 6/2 split, I hope they think they're playing old school Munster.
