When the Celtic League first started the bookies were awful at setting the odds. They never seemed to look at the sides, just the teams, and as a result their handicaps were all over the place and not based in reality. Went on for years. There are probably multiple individual horse races that bring...

They’ve finally put Ciara Kelly up against one of these zero covider bullshitters - this is glorious stuff. At long last somebody calling them out on their nonsense. Do you have the cliff notes? Ciara gave her a stone cold stunner and then a spear tackle. I'm sure it'll be up as a podcast soon, the...

Money, not sentiment sets bookies odds; the main driver being that the bookie makes his 12% margin on the book. You can calculate the margin from the odds. More like 9% in this case /Pedant I used to work for a bookies. You used to get surprising bets on rugby, I can remember someone putting 5 gran...

Keenan Larmour Ringrose Henshaw Lowe Byrne McGrath Healy Kelleher Furlong Toner Ryan Ruddock JvdF Conan ===== Tracy Byrne Porter Baird Fardy JGP fingers crossed Frawley Daverage ???

They have to know everyone is done with the mixing outside shit. I actually saw at the weekend an elderly couple heading into the house across the road from us, obviously the grandparents. Guess the two of them had gotten their vaccines and decided they were done with being isolated, and good on the...

Taoiseach Micheál Martin has said the Health Service Executive remains on target to vaccinate 450,000 people each week by mid-June and reach overall targets for the population once vaccine supply continues to arrive in an orderly manner. :thumbup: Great.

https://www.rte.ie/sport/rugby/2021/0427/1212396-johnny-sexton-ruled-out-of-champions-cup-semi-final/ Just a few things going against Leinster at the moment. While the Munster match was a nothing game, I doubt even Leo thought we’d lose by that score. Not good for morale/momentum. If Frawley gets a...

People aged under 50 years and who are not immunocompromised and who have had a Covid-19 infection in the last six months should receive just one dose of a vaccine, at which point they should be considered fully vaccinated, the Cabinet agreed on Tuesday.

I'm not worried about Byrne starting instead of Sexton but if either he or McGrath get injured I don't think Leinster can win, there is such a gigantic chasm between them and the next guys.

Renewed my season ticket there, need something to look forward to

They've also said it can be given to anyone if no other vaccines available. what does that even mean and how do you determine that someone meets the criteria ? they've changed the rollout to age based because they couldn't figure out how to track based on if you were a teacher, guard, at risk etc f...

Given the levels of abuse directed at him over the years it's probably not a shock.

Would they ever fudge off.

Christ indeed.

Is this sort of rancid shit just par for the course now, hence AJ trying to laugh it off?

What's the problem with Aus? Have only been there as a tourist but it seemed alright I must say.

B'man saves the thread with some sanity. :thumbup: Judging by some of the comments from Leinster fans we needed that beating as a reality check. It's not a good sign for Irish rugby if anyone thinks Leinster can get away with putting out a team like that against Munster at near full strength and no...

Disappointing result, but whatever. Don't really care.

I'm just getting annoyed watching this. Both hands on the ground there.

That is very disappointing.

Mortgage is cheaper than renting.

If you're 25 and earning a few hundred k per year do you think that's going to be top of mind?
