Think they have them all now. It'll be objections from the rest of the homeowners that needs to be overcome next. When does the lease/cooperation arrangement with the FAI end? You'd imagine they might prefer to do the next phase alone if possible. Or was it the SPV that has been buying the houses r...

Have they banned those without Dublin addresses from going? Harsh but fair. How many people want to take time off work to attend a home game? Hopefully Humph will start sorting this sort of shit out. I suspect who plays who when is decided by the TV companies, not the IRFU, nor the touring countrie...

Tbh O'Neill isn't stupid, the patchwork of laws that leads to O'Neill is stupid, albeit even that isn't the problem. Ultimately the issue is a simple one, you are required to only allow building where there is sufficient public transport. The providers will not increase provision of public transpor...

Holland J is a tough enough cookie. Very much a legal purist. He's not pro-applicant at all, he just strictly applies the law. My actual experience, over many years of being involved in preparing planning applications, is that when you write to Dublin Bus/CIE with regard to providing a bus service ...

There is some hope. Our u18s beat their Irish 💉 counterparts! Looking at 5+ years of misery first but something to hold onto. Dominated by Scarlets players :smug: Well this doesn’t add up.

What's the deal with all the Metro-sceptic articles in the IT? Frank McDonald, and his idiotic idea that a LUAS connection to the airport is all that's needed. Ah yeah a Luas that would cross all of the traffic junctions from the airport to st Stephen’s Green - what could possibly go wrong. There's...

I agree... I find the call a bit weird, and it seems to me more like depriving Ireland options at centre (not sure whether you have a lot of depth in that position, so may be speaking out of my arss there). Plus the lad is 27 yo, not really in his prime... but who knows. Could you enlighten me rega...

Anyone else think Beirne looked shattered come the last 20 mins? He looked so slow chasing a box kick at one point. I think we maybe subbed the wrong lock.

How much did this farce cost to run? How many houses could have been built with the funding? That’s what I want to know. 45,932 and a 1/2 All of them before next week, at least according to Eoin O'Broin (so long as they're not in his constituency) As for the cost - that's where the 50% of your sala...

Baloucoune doesn't do what Farrell wants at wing, I thought he went alright in the AIs in 2022 but dropped like a stone after missing the last match injured. If the answer is Nash and Larmour then Farrell is confused. It's not, it's Hansen. And for the first time we really missed the go-forward we ...

That’s what I want to know.

The cost associated with the democratic process is cheap at the price.

What was most disappointing about that, was the kicking of possession away with a couple of minutes left. We played very poorly indeed, yet were still winning by two points at that stage. That's down to individual players. We never really got on the right side of the ref, but there were two incident...

Some of them are such utter dickheads - you know they’ll still be sniping away when Finn’s the Lions starting 10. Bandwaggoners are a pain in any sport - embarrassing for the many decent Irish lads.

Probably a fair(ish) result in the end. But I would comment that it is easier to put kilos on the young Irish lads, than teach the young English skills and nous. Kilos won't help them scrummage. My point still stands. We get just one decent prop a year, is all we need. England are sending out u/a t...

Yes. You do realise that design work on the alignment for Metrolink commenced in 2017, and the surveys would have been a relatively early process tying in with the 2018/2019 geotechnical investigations; and the buildings surveyed were the buildings in situ at the time. The application for a railway...

Metrolink made its application for a RO in September 2022. The alignment work would have been done several years before this, when the now demolished buildings were still in-situ. The top of the metrolink tunnel is 15 m below gl, that is probably 8-9m below foundation level of any double basement. T...
