Think Brian Deeny a second row is only 21 or so, still plenty of room to fill out his 75kg frame.

This time last year I got sunstroke with the temperature at 26C. The wife has us booked for Amalfi later in the year. I really would like to see Como again or Laga de Iseo? I love Amalfi, go visit the Duomo and its museum, amazing. 20 minutes boat trip from there, go visit Cetara and eat there, cos...

Thank you all. I will read all your posts with my missus, who as I wrote has been there for a year so she knows better than me. The plan is Dublin first 2 days, then travel around with a rented car for a week. Galway is a must, my daughter stayed there for 2 weeks and loved it. For who asked, We ha...

Ring of Kerry
Galway City.

I don't think anyone here will ever know as much of the country as I do.
Worked as a service engineer too which took got me around a bit.

The drive from Westport, around Croagh Patrick, through the doolagh valley to leenane is stunning... Combining it with a drive through the inagh valley in Connemara is possibly the best day of driving you can do in Ireland. Compared to the ring of Kerry? Not a chance It's at worst comparable, at be...

If anything I hope Ireland massacre us.

Oddly enough I share that wish.

Avoid Killarney too. Head for Donegal if you want some place unspoilt.

The core problem is that if the government wiped out the board and started again, the national team would be barred from competition due to FIFAS own rules on government interference.

It is odd indeed to be looking at a Welsh side -at any level - where their nine is one of their weak links. It just doesn't compute for someone of my vintage. Fairn summation of the game/tactics, but as has been said, we were shorn of what little pace we do possess in our backline, which played int...

Many Irish in their 'safe space' talking down Jager. Someone even called him too small for prop, more of a hooker :lol: :? The NZ connection will have tainted him in their eyes, they're so superior now, you know. But many said similar about Aki, Lowe & JGP. I'm not saying he'll be a world beater, b...

Technical question: VDM was sent to the bunker after the lazy referee couldn't be bothered to check his tackle. Was a final decision provided? What does the law say? Should it be provided within 10min even if after the final whistle? How is it notified to the teams? He notified both teams before th...

I hope Jaeger did some unseen work, didn't see him do much.

He should have been hooked against NZ, end of.

You just want a Munster guy coming on.

Just home so haven't watched it back yet but my overriding view is we were way too lateral and didn't take it up the guts nearly enough. We were well on top physically but all the side-to-side was easy to defend. Also seriously got on the wrong side of the ref in the middle quarters which is a worr...

Which is odd seeing as Munster have a much better points difference and we're both on the same points.
Ulster beat Munster a few months ago. Head to head must come before points difference.

An extra game won anyway.

He got munched a few times, mind you he last played for the Jersey lily's.
Munster types like his carrying though.

Took my wife to Dublin once, took the Pembroke ferry and drove up. It was grey, overcast and a little chilly. :thumbdown: I went to Ireland once. To be completely fair, it was ok.
