Yep agree they look a shambles. Thankfully LaR don’t look great either

Might fall over the line but LaR will be better after a half time talk.

Floppykid

I said Conan should have started.

Larmour is the only one with pace.
And he takes a skip before he gets moving.
Or else runs sideways

Ross can pass well and intelligently, but his options are limited by the fact that he's way way back and passing standing still.

Duff Paddy wrote: ↑Sat Apr 13, 2024 5:57 pm Headless chicken stuff from Leinster

A ruthless team would have just kicked the points and piled on the pain

Lack of composure and leadership

Also severe lack of incision in the backs.

Floppykid

Criminal from Leinster.

Floppykid

Byrne did well in the end there*, but it was so noticeable in that set he wasn't committing any defenders. *though most 10s would have been able to get outside the defender and wouldn't have needed to do the basketball pass. Yeah, he can pick (forward) passes well.But he's really not offering threat.

Floppykid

Phew, thought we'd fudge that,

Dickson is so so bad.

He didn't have a 3 replays and slow mo you chav.

Yeah, he and Ross just slowing things down every possession.

Floppykid

Larmour is in some great form.

He did but Jenkins didn't help himself by flapping at him

I had a feeling he'd get dinged the moment he went too fast.

Tremenjous sucking off LaR

Connors was selected over him.

Moronic from Jenkins.

Floppykid

Some slow Leinster backs unable to take advantage of space.

Floppykid

Why do we have to be subjected to two Munster superfans on comms?

Is that how you would describe any player who had been rarely outside the top ten in the world for over a decade?

He's doing well. T33

An old piece about OJ's life in exile, very worth reading.
Completely hollow human being.

archive(dot)ph useful for getting around the paywall.

Floppykid

With Ross at 10, it'll have to be through the forwards.

Duff Paddy wrote: ↑Fri Apr 12, 2024 4:43 pm And if we lose? Where do Leinster go from there

Leo will be under the microscope.

Floppykid

I would imagine Synman would have had similar impact in that Leinster side. He just didn't have the stage to show it at Munster. He was a near complete lemon for Munster. Worried he'll be the same for us. We're less reliant on him being fit, although maybe not if Ryan continues to be a sicknote. Re...

Interesting if true... OJ Simpson didn't kill Nicole and Ron. It was his son, Jason. https://www.reddit.com/r/unpopularopinion/s/lz2G7UeD31 Yeah, seems that chestnut's been dug up and spun around by tiktok zoomers, whose brains are about as cooked as any facebook uncles I worry.

Floppykid

Similar enough for me. Both fairly lightweight as locks go at the top tier of this competition. Dillane a bit better a ball-carrier, Molony a bit better a ball player. Dillane is way better. Not being a prick but Molony has done very well to have the career he has had, and all credit to him, based ...

Ross Lucky, Jenkins needs to earn his crust needs a big 50 mins. Doris has been outplayed by Aldritt last couple of LAR games so needs a big one. Wonder will Henshaw swap in Osborne in defence marking Danty. Ross is a safety blanket pick for Leo. Doris has also been outplayed by Conan in the last f...

Floppykid

It's really only Ryan we miss. Ringrose would improve us but not as much as Ryan would. Players will have definitely targeted this. And revenge is about the only thing going for Ross in his favour. Ross has a lot of trust to repay anyway. Guess the coaches are also worried about Harry's guaranteed ...

Thorn was effective at a higher level. They were both key to the respective trophies. Yes, which made him objectively way more effective. I would imagine Synman would have had similar impact in that Leinster side. He just didn't have the stage to show it at Munster. He was a near complete lemon for...

Leinster going to put in a big defensive performance.

Yep. Could get Connors back into the Ireland frame if he does well.
Ross being picked for his kicking I imagine.

Floppykid

Brad Thorn is only marginally more a former Leinster player than Synman a Munster player. Both had very effective brief cameos to help their respective sides win a trophy but they don't really count as former players. Thorne was way more effective than Snyman. Elsom would've won the final for us. T...

Still haven't watched Made in America. I really should.

Ross starts, no Harry. 6/2 split Connors starts as does Jenkins. Milne on bench. Wondered if they'd go 6-2 with Connors starting. Presumably has the express instructions to just hit everything he can for 40-50 minutes. Touch on Conan. He'd better bring it off the bench to offset the biff lost when ...

Floppykid

Leo goes with Ross.

Connors the only daring choice really.

Floppykid

Of all the NIQs we have and have had, I think Nacewa would have been the most perfect to have involved for the final last year. Arguably even more than Sexton. No way. Big Bad Brad Thorne. Brad Thorn is only marginally more a former Leinster player than Synman a Munster player. Both had very effect...

I think LaR will pull out a performance this weekend.

Luke Marshall retiring at the end of the season Decent career but what could he have done without the injuries I remember seeing him for the first time at the combined friendly at the opening game in the new Lansdowne (I think it was U20's?). He was head and shoulders the best player on the pitch. ...

Decent career but what could he have done without the injuries
With his head injuries i’m surprised he lasted so long
Agreed
Has to be challenging North for concussion stats

He and Spence were a very good partnership
