Cam, do you think the will get it completed for Ryder Cup?

Lads this car hire lark is madness. Two weeks next March for a small suv it's $3500. Same bus in Belfast under 2k. Wtf.

mickie

Wondering in today's market in Ireland what a good budget number for construction of a new home would be? 200sf sound fair? Thinking of finally returning home snd trying to run some numbers.

mickie

Interesting that Rory O Connor was pushing the Frawley should be sent to Ulster to get gametime as a starting 10 on OTB.

Five years they will be talking about throwing the Jocks out of the 6N not the Italians
Scottish rugby appears in a terminal decline
It's odd because they're utterly shite at football, don't know what's hoovering up their talent.
X boxes and Playstations?

Buckfast!

mickie

Maybe showing my bias here but am I the only one thinking Ryan wasn't that bad? Of course he'll have to take his share of the blame for the lineout but without Toner/Hendo it's often been a struggle. There's not a ready made replacement ready to take over in that area. I'm a huge Ringrose fan but h...

Awful pity Doris had to cry off before the game...

Strange Con that they announced is 12 months in advance!

Shoresy: ffn class. Even better than Letterkenny
The Old Man: just 2 episodes in but looks great. Very deliberate. Good cast.

Looks like Byrne might be fit for Friday night

What kind of pitch is this?

Who got the MoM?

Was it not a week ago Ulster fans were saying he was shite?

mickie

Don't really have any complaints about that one personally. Leamy to Munster seems to be definitely happening. I wonder who will replace him at Leinster. Anyone heard anything? Heard Leamy as defence coach has a bit to go yet. More of a branch thing than a Rowntree thing. Mikey the Pikey is a diffi...

Speaking of forgotten TH props J Ryan was very good against Exeter. For the life of me I can't figure out why Fla and Rowntree have both favored the human deck chair for the last 4 years. Such a pity that he's off to Wasps but hopefully it will be knox/ Salanoa every game next year with Archer only ...

I was going to say move it to Pairc ui caoimh but the ginger prick is playing there too. Did I hear something one time about a pitch in Kilarney or something.....

He's a classy footballer. The old cliche - makes good decisions. Indeed Keenanesque.

Best scrumhalf on display tbf

I ffn can't stand " holistic"

Gary Clark Jnr. Gets my vote.

Rowntree to replace Van Graan: https://twitter.com/Munsterrugby/status/1513812049255616514 Delighted with that, hopefully he starts influencing a bit more for the rest of the season, a reaction from the players would be good as well, if any of them clocked out when it was known JVG was off they'll ...

thats been the talk for ages, isnt there a DOR coming in over him? From a different source I heard they reached out to Jared Payne. No idea what role. hasnt he already been signed up to join clermont? No idea Bayern. As I say different source that I wouldn't have same confidence level in.

Some weekend for the Italians.

Flannery to Ulster on a 1 year deal. Looks like Munster didn't fancy him and we're taking a relatively cheap punt on him. Bit pointless really. Not sure where your getting your info from Earl but Munster wanted him to stay. Van Grann offered him a contract to come to Bath. He wanted to stay in Irel...

Only 8 minutes in a history of violence and still nominated for an Oscar.

Not the same hunger Duff. Pat was younger son on a small farm in west limerick who worked his ballox off for everything he had. Treated all employees with respect. Kids had everything handed to them and didnt feel the same way

mickie

Very few will shed a tear knowing Conlon got his cûnt kicked in Bitter. He most certainly is Delighted to see him getting hammered Winnie would love to hear why Conlon is a wit kant. Good fighter who just fell thru the ropes in the 12th round of the word title fight when up by 3 rounds and is in cr...

Pat Mulcair was a legend, kids not so much. Looked after his employees very well. What went wrong with the kids? I think Mickie is exaggerating, Roadbridge's slow demise can probably be traced back to getting involved in Poland (a move that also tipped SIAC into a death spiral - everybody hated SIA...

mickie

Jesus what happened to Henderson. I know he was short on game time but some of the penalties were just dumb. I don't think I remember a second row performance this bad in the last 15 years

After a try is scored, bench players running in from all angles to celibrate. I ffn hate it!!

Herself is trying to keep the peace between MIL and myself, and my eldest is doing a Masters and has classmates caught on both sides of the UA-RU divide. Hard to avoid the elephant in the room at the moment in our gaff.

That's harsh on the MIL redder

It would be nice to have an Irish 7 capable of winning a turnover again.

Do people think Ryan is a good captain?

Do you remember your hooker in the senior team from west Limerick? He's a pediatrician these days. Good friend of mine. Edit to add: Fully agree on Staunton, by the way, I was just being facetious. The lad had it all. From Glin? He's my cousin Yep. Haven't spoken in years - my fault, really. Will r...

Teaches mathematics in Castleknock now, apparently. Staunton was good, but he wasn't uncapped Barry Everitt good. Everitt is now headmaster at a public school in Surrey, so appears to have bested Staunton in the educational career stakes, too. Zappa, I played with both at Munchins and Jeremy was fa...

We cant have a discussion about outrageously talented 10's who never quite made it without mentioning Jeremy Staunton. Best player to get less than 5 caps.
