Re: URCR14 Lions vs Leinster

Leinster way too easy to defend against. All just individual runners lined up. Everything with McGrath is just a half second too slow he’s just too hesitant. Really poor from Leinster

NZ can do the draft system easier than us because it's far easier for an Irish player to live in England/France and maintain connections to family than it is for NZers.

The draft system is a daft idea. Young lads will be shipped off to the four corners of Ireland when they just want to stay in Dublin with their mates, say fudge this and go to France. Also it will dilute provincial identity which is diluted enough as it is. I find the Kiwi system crazy. The three B...
