Full match up already: https://youtu.be/KbW9troCpMI Thanks. It was 01.00 at half time here and having watched the Ulster match I couldn't put myself through another defeat. Just watched it now and I realise what happened. Munster won by accident through their own stupidity and naivety. For some rea...

It’s been six long months, but the board is back to normal. All is well with the world. The usual suspects back to doing the usual stuff. It is like a timewarp back to 2010.

That is the last link to the golden age of Hollywood gone. Can’t think of anyone else who was a major star in the 1930s, still alive. Famously, she’s meant to have had a fairly terrible relationship with her sister. Two fabulous looking woman.

So do I.

Whats the normal corporation tax rate (before any shenanigans) down Mexico way? 12.5 Spicy :thumbup: Reckon the shinners will jack it up when they eventually get their grubby hands on power? thats why they'll never get in as the lead party ...... hopefully it just seems that despite the state of Ir...

I think the “living daylights” has held up quite well. I remember reading that John Barry and A-ha clashed over his insistence on including orchestral backing to the track. Much later, they had the good grace to admit that he was right and they were wrong and that the song is much better for the inc...

And again, the Defence is not actually at the cabinet table. But we can somehow managed to have two different ministers for education. A fecking disgrace.

Yes we are heading into one hell of a recession, but probably for the first time in our history we are heading into one at exactly the same time is everyone else. And probably for the first time it is not due to her own fecklessness and stupidity. And unlike some other countries which are heavily de...

Surprised nobody has mentioned Jack Clark. Genuinely, one of the slowest backs ever to play international football. Ungainly, stiff limbed with zero evasion skills. Even his one good moment on the the rugby field, his assist for Gordon Hamilton’s try, reveals the motion and suppleness of a 50 year o...

Joey out for the rest of the season. Right decision, but clearly next season is make or break.

Link? Please?

More to the point, we went from being genuine World Cup contenders to a implosion in form almost with precedence in modern rugby history. Nobody took us seriously in 1999 or 2009. Not the case this time.

What is really concerning is that Farrell is either ignoring or misreading the public mood. Last year was perhaps the most disastrous in Irish rugby for over twenty years. The gap between November 2018 and 2019 was genuinely shocking. And we have been here before, with Kidney doing the exact same as...

f**king hell. If that is the team Farrell’s honeymoon will be brief.

They will probably be going to the Grand Slam and will be as nervous as fudge.

Adetroy

Agreed. How many times did Scotland break our line? Hardly at all. We looked far more dangerous in their 22 than they did in ours. The worry is how piss poor our front five were. Herring excepted.

The lads are having a rough week

They are all waiting for Leo’s amazing strategy which is going to dazzle the nation. A bit like his new best mate, Boris Johnson.

I’m not sure that the very strong reaction to the RIC commemoration had much to do with the commemoration itself, but instead was a reaction to the sanctimonious nature of Flannigan’s response to Criticism and the way in which the word maturity gets thrown around by FG when it comes to their libera...

I have always rather enjoyed the fact that the one Victoria cross won by somebody from Northern Ireland in WWII was the “wrong religion” so there was no desire to commemorate him until the 21st century. Says all you need to know about NI between 1920 and 1997.

I probably should ask this when the thread is a bit busier but does anyone have any advice on saving over a long period, eg. 10 years+? Would be thinking of making a monthly contribution rather than having a lump sum up front. All the banks seem to have investment products but are they any good? If...

Link? Lads?

Proud and horrified by Ireland’s performance at the exact same time.

Thanks!!!

A friend is asking if there is a link to a stream

He is a Northern Irish nationalist arsehole who hates us.

Loads has been said for the past few days about why we failed. The answer is complex and we should not make any sweeping judgements. Nevertheless, what made us successful between World Cup’s is the very thing that has come back to haunt us. Whilst other teams were taking risks and chances we chose ...

If Joe has a pair of balls he will drop O’Mahoney, Earls and Kearney. Picks Larmour at full-back, Conway wing and Stockdale by the skin of his teeth on the other side. Either Beirne or Ruddock at six.

Adetroy

Personally think that Farrell at 12 and Ringrose at 13 is a great combo.

Adetroy

Surprised to see Best starting.

And my work here has been done. Konnichiwa.

Okay, so this is not going to be subtle. But two weeks ago there was a semi meltdown about dropping Toner. Now let me be clear, that may still be a bad decision, but on the basis of the Scotland game it was the right decision. Wut? Did I miss Kleyn having a stormer? There may have been arguments ov...

Fair play to Neil Francis, it’s never grey, it’s always black and white. Last week, it was all doom and gloom as we had to few leaders and too many players out of form. This week, I’m glad to report we are now a match for anyone in the world!

The Oracle, Neil Francis, described the bench as weak. Frankly, is it just me or is he f**king clueless. I think it is a terrific bench.

For once, he is right. McFadden is an embarrassment. We should applaud his wholehearted commitment and deplore his total lack of judgement and self control. There's been worse done by bigger liginds that all gets slid under the rug as a "mistake", you go ahead and agree with Jumper though. Thanks f...
