Is she in the room with us now? What's weird is when you go through the current Leinster side is there's no one there with enough personality to even dislike - they really are a bunch of personality-less nobodies. Porter, McCarthy, Lowe all have a bit about them but not if you're looking for negati...

And nobody will give a fudge Yes, here you are, clearly not caring. You're very cranky lately. If Sexton makes it a habit to wind up opposition fans then I'm sure he'll get what he deserves. It's not a difficult concept to understand. Not going to lie, I am - genocide in Gaza, drone attacks on Isra...

That's just a lie. Nope. Was at a match against Fiji iirc. You could even here some oul wan over the mic shouting "shame on you" or something similar. Was very poor form and came from genuine dislike rather than the pantomime booing of St. Radge yesterday Is she in the room with us now? What's weir...

Boogate would be the perfect epilogue to this saga. The media and pundits, having blown so much smoke up ROG's arse will now have to objectively ask the question: "is he a dickhead?" I for one can’t wait for well known dickhead Johnny Sexton to be booed on the big screen if or when he goes into coa...

Everyone is doing it now.

Iceland fans were the 1st i seen of this at the French euros a few years ago

Yes, exactly, listen to your gut on this..

Looking at those mindless drones, aren't you better than that?

Anyway, was a small section of the crowd and it was a very jestful boo in the same manner that ROG winds up the opposition. Storm in a teacup.

I am deadly serious, and disappointed no one got the Cyndi Lauper reference earlier.

I also recall the time a Munster fan charged at and verbally abused a Saracens player of colour :(( Tbf to him, he was challenging Billy V's open homophobia - that fan remains banned from Munster games as a prisoner of conscience (I'd definitely rescind the ban).

It won't be. Their pack bar Lawes isn't good enough. Northampton won't get within 40 points of Leinster, they are very ordinary. I think they are better than ordinary, with a few top class players and they would be able to trade blows with most teams in the tournament. It is just they are a terribl...

So it's OK for Munster fans to boo their own players? Guy was never up to it but no. Munster fans grabbing opposition players during a match is that OK? https://www.thesun.ie/sport/11823529/munster-fan-grab-bayonne-jersey-european-champions-cup/ The fan stepped up to stop an assault - he deserves a...

Until we meet them again, getting roundly and deservedly booed while his team gets their asses handed to them is a nice final Lansdowne Road memory for ROG.

Anyone who abuses a player online is a wit kant. That’s slightly different.

Is it?

I try to limit my personal abuse of players even on here but the entire thing is weird. None of us have a breeze what's happening on a professional pitch, it's so far removed from our personal experiences.

JoeyFantastic

RADGE is a panto villain. Get over it. The problem with that view is you think it's acceptable for fans to treat matches as though they were at a pantomime. Say you're up and down to the bar a lot at matches? I am from the era, long departed and scarcely fathomable now, when we'd applaud good play ...

Booooooo Honestly closest I can remember is when Irish soccer fans booed a Rangers player in some random game years back - struck me as odd then too though. I remember Kidney being booed by Leinster fans the week (?) of his Mum's funeral but that was shortly after he left ye and I don't think it wa...

The most satisfying thing about that win was the death of rugby values imo. Something special in our game was lost today and that's very funny, Leinster did that. You don't think it's weird?

Yep but OK for opposition coaches to stand outside the ref room at half time? Take a hike Did I say it was? I merely pointed out that the values that were once meant to define the game are gone.

Rugby values are in serious, maybe terminal, decline if it's ok to boo opposition coaches - shameful, shameful, shameful. Yep but OK for opposition coaches to stand outside the ref room at half time?

What actually happened CM, and as AJ knows, is that plaintiffs legal teams held back on their cases until the Supreme Court decided. That is they started the cases, which meant the Insurance companies had to make provisions at the old rates, but didn't proceed too quickly whilst waiting for the dec...

Utterly irrelevant. Judges have been making awards based on the guidelines for (just shy of) 3 years. Where's the decline in premiums that the insurers promised?

FWIW I read somewhere on Twitter today that last years round of 16 match at LR generated € 1.4m for Leinster, after the € 400k rental fee, and 35% of the gate receipts going to Ulster. It really shows the importance of a home match in the round of 16; and must have Ulster and Munster looking to use...

So you now accept the guidelines have been in place for just shy of three years. Well done. And their legitimacy/constitutionality being contested for just about the same time. Utterly irrelevant.

There are two tasks needing doing in parallel, for me. 1. Get development sorted in these three provinces (and recruitment to an extent). 2. Tying into the recruitment piece, there does need to be a rebalancing of the talent which is currently being produced in Leinster, where there are huge benefi...

It's very easy to blow through cash in sports. IRFU have cash and asset reserves that mean we can weather a fair bit of a storm but we're still reliant on revenue streams, as any team is. So, they can afford to carry a 10m debt that Munster incurred easily enough but they'd prefer the provinces did...

JoeyFantastic

The issue the IRFU have is this debt is handy from a business perspective most likely - does anyone really think they intend to clear a 10,000,000 debt on 200,000 annual payments? And at the same time have restricted (quite publicly) the matches Munster can hold to clear that debt? Let's not preten...

JoeyFantastic

The point is that they have always tried to have the provinces function within their means. You're the only province who gets a money spinner nearly every year (this repeated argument about not getting games really doesn't stand up to scrutiny) and have a stadium that's perfect for concerts. It's n...
