Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread
How we will all laugh when the game is dead as a spectacle on the island Munster filled a 40k stadium for a jumped up friendly 2 months ago. 6 of the top ten programs viewed on Irish TV last year were the international matches including the RWC. It’s not dying. Ulster are just shit at the moment. G...

Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread
Disingenuous to assert we have not made moves to address appalling lack of talent coming through. We have. I'll accept it was done far too late, but it is being done. However it is where they are coming though from, and both quantity and quality of the raw material provided which remains the crux o...

Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread
The only backline position a marquee signing would be somewhat justifiable is wing, even then it's not really. The fact that Jordie doesn't cover it really makes it all the funnier.

Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread
While there is no way the two announcements are correlated in that way, Leinster's 10 CCs are a big part of the reason you can spaff 200K on something you really don't need. Produce good players and they get CCs allowing you to sign good backups to cover while they are with Ireland. Beautiful in it...

Re: Israel declares state of war
What's the consensus? Iranians justfied to do something or not? My take is that the Israelis would have factored in an Iranian response prior to their mission in Damascus. After Trump killed Solemni they struck a US base, so the Isrealis had to know something was coming. Iranians put big bells and ...
