Plus he is of Irish decent.

1798 would have been better than Battle of the Boyne as that was mostly English Civil war/part of wider European geopolitics. Pope supported William sure.

Ryanair has it's own engineering team there to keep an eye on the production of the planes made for them.

Thanks for the explanations, guys,much appreciated. So I take it this has an incidence on clubs? You have to get a certain number of IQd players in your squad? I have to admit, the name doesn't ring any bell... but I don't follow much Irish rugby, except when it's the H Cup or whatever its name tho...

MND is awful. One of the few illnesses that properly scares the shit out of me. Hope no-one I know ever suffers from it.

Just heard he raised something like 3.5 million for MND research. Fair fucks, great final legacy.

I thought he was a rapper. Don’t think I’ve come across his work anyway, not sure how painting murals gets him this sort of profile, but there you are. Because his murals can be interesting rather than the balaclava clad terrorists waving flegs and guns that you are used to That was a bit unnecessa...

It's hard for a pack to be at the right pitch for every single game. This is why back-to-back Slams are so difficult. Obviously they were on it in Marseille and have been on it for the most part for the home games. POM had a poor showing but he's been good up to now. I'd back him to do well against...

Hopefully Italy can back it up and win next week. If they can establish themselves as a team who could win two or three games a year would make the championship even better.

Asking for wales.

Kind of a non entity in rugby at the moment so hard to tell anything with them.

So Wales will need a BP win and deny Italy a BP to avoid the spoon?

Yup, the arrogance was beyond belief in the build up to this game.
I'm loving our arrogance. We've become you from 20-30 years ago. We've made it
The thing is we never were. You thought we were because of your raging inferiority complex.

Sure

Not sure why coaches continue to take such a huge risk by opting for a 6-2 bench split? It cost the Blues the match yesterday, they had a halfback playing on the wing for three quarters of the game. I know the Springboks won the last RWC with a 6-2 split, but I don't actually think it in itself was...

We need to nurture and look after those Edogbo boys We have a 6’ 10” teenager in the U20s There is potential of a monster pack in the future (front row could be a problem) But we need to find pace in the backs that was obvious yesterday The English backs were dynamite Had they been able to hold the...

It's the nature of our playing pool that we just don't have the sort of depth other countries have, especially when player development has more or less collapsed in 2 of the big provinces (Munster and Ulster obviously). Munster might be coming right but as long as Irish rugby relies on a handful of...

I’ve no interest in the championship next week now. Even if we do win it, it’s tarnished by the fact we lost to England, who will take huge confidence from beating the supposedly “best team in the world”. Not a chance we are the best team in the world. Apart from the France match, we’ve looked aver...

Starting winger went off within 5 mins after a HIA and his replacement lasted about 60 mins so their starting SH had to go to the wing

Yeh, if we had Ringrose on the bench I think we are winning that game.

This is why Baloucoune has been so disappointing
Hopefully Murphy can sort him out
Yep, top end pace is something we have rarely had. He has all the tools, is it a head thing with him?
He seems injury prone
But I believe he also likes to party a bit too much

Hopefully comes good.

As I correctly predicted yesterday, Ireland bottled it again. Poor leadership against a mediocre Sprinbok Lite team, you can see why England disposed of Farrell. I don’t think Farrell was the one who soiled himself. You need to look at the lads on the field. Plenty of experience and big match exper...

Ireland need a couple of fresh players to put their hands up to take some of this squads places

Any other top team would have the in form Baird starting at 6.

Doris has another "quiet" game Yeah he has been poor overall. Im sick to death of being let down by Irish rugby. Had given up on rugby after the qf exit. Got excited again this 6 nations.

Pace is fixed with Hansen and Ringrose coming back, even JOB. It's not fixed though. Those guys are quick, certainly quicker than those out there today, but none of them are a flyer. It would remain an issue against sides who have genuine pace. It would help us be better balanced for sure, but pace...

Congrats. Well deserved win.

We somehow could have won it despite being dominated in the forwards.

What's the first deciding factor after points, is it head to head or points difference?
