ULSTER HAVE IDENTIFIED SPRINGBOK AND LIONS FLYHALF ELTON JANTJIES AS THE PERFECT 10 FOR THE PRO14 SIDE. However, the idea does not sit well with the Irish Rugby Football Union (IRFU) according to media reports in Ireland. With the confirmation of All Blacks Charles Piutau moving to Bristol at the e...

Berry reffing the league final again. I dunno. I know we're not experts on here but that just seems mad to me. Failure to red card Kleyn alone should have done for him. Him, Mitrea or a Scot. Not exactly the best group to pick from. I'd have gone for Mitrea though. Mitrea the only option really. Be...

As a result of the report on the Womens WC team ?
No idea.

Well the Under 20's defence was as shocking during the 6ns as the womens attack in the world cup, did we leak at least 3 tries in each game?

This notion that Schmidt doesn't see eye to eye with Ross Byrne seems entirely fanciful. I can imagine a situation whereby Schmidt is communicating with Byrne and telling him what he has to improve on, but why would they be at loggerheads .... they don't even work with each other. Anyway, Byrne is ...

So who is def out for next week? Any chance Henshaw will be back?

Luckycharmer

So how many tackles did zebo miss there?

Luckycharmer

Have to say I am quite ambivalent about this game, Munsters to lose the lads are probably still hungover. That’s awful mockers baiting, Leinster are comfortable favourites for a reason. They probably said the same in 2011 when Munster beat us out the game, I just hope they will switch from the bloo...

Just once.

I play it once a year - great course. Makes a million and half in green fees each year so membership for locals is actually quite cheap around €8/900

I think there'll be feck all in the match tomorrow ..... hopefully Ross Byrne stands up ..... it could put him on the plane to Australia Larmour, Carbery, Lowe is exciting as anything going forward, but scary as hell defensively Expect murray to kick the leather off it and Conway/Earls/Zebo to comp...

Did he play outhalf a bit that game as well, the final that year I think was in Lansdowne road as well, turned out to be 2 French teams.

Leinster and Munster set to add to a history of friendly violence Matches between the provinces never short of an edge but the tribes have amalgamated about 3 hours ago Gavin Cummiskey 0 December 2001, the Celtic League final at Lansdowne Road, and all hell is about to break loose. Munster are shre...

I’d echo the earlier point re: the academies Munster in particular need to suck up a few very lean years and concentrate on/invest in building the right academy structure Buying saffers may keep the lights on in terms of being competitive in the short term, but ultimately it’s a false economy Build...

Got Note 8 2 months ago, great phone, great camera. Gave my Note 4 to my missus but stopped last month charging, tried a new battery but wouldn't charge.

Can you imagine how much more damage would have occurred had Leinster stuck with MOC? and some leinster fans thought he should have been kept on. :lol: Really? Was it DP? I only recall mongs from other provinces trying to tell us what was best for us. not really on here, elsewhere. MOC was poision,...

Came 5th in our Spring Meeting which is my best ever finish in one of our big comps (that's based on Gross scores). Which included a penalty of one shot for driving my ball into my own bag :x ended up as a double bogey so i could have been even better. Putter was on fire was knocking things in from...

A very cynical friend of mine from Omagh opined the following at lunchtime. It was his opinion that more Munster folk would travel up for the final to cheer on whoever Leinster were playing against (if they win) than will travel up for the semi final involving their own team.

Was there last year, nice spot very hilly. Some nice places along the sea front and new Indian opened up while we were there which was excellent. It is a couple of hundred metres back from seafront.

lots to be learnt from beirne situation.. hopefully leo/academy learn it. he is best suited at 6 anyway IMO, almost Fardy lite.. scrum cap and all. Yep, 6 is quite probably his best position. Won't play there for Munster. He wants to play secondrow though. The players themselves aren't always right...

That quick tap was really stupid. I hope Larmour gives him an earful. The only thing I'd say about that is that I'm not sure Racing were back 10 but I couldn't be arsed checking. Still a silly decision. It wasn't even that quick so they had plenty of time to be back- there wasn't even any semblance...

I think something that needs to be addressed is when the ball is out of a ruck and how long a scrumhalf can just keep it at his feet before passing/box kicking. On sat the Racing scrumhalf just seemed to leave the ball there until he was told to use it, I thought it was max 5 seconds would love to s...

Conan and Ruddock on the bench is incredibly impressive. However, you would hope nothing happens to Leavy. He has been superb this year. Big gap between ROL and anyone in the starting team. I would have thought Adam Byrne has the pace and physique to do very well against the Frenchies. Nah, Byrne i...

I'm as nervous a jaysus today about the match tomorrow. Think we're underestimating Racing a bit. Best defence in Europe basically, that alone will keep them in the game. Munster dominated the semi final but lacked composure. This will be a comfortable stroll for Leinster. Racing will come hard out...

i'm extremely nervous about saturday. Stay the course. :thumbup: Were you not a nervous nelly before the Scarletts match too? Bookies have Leinster by 10 which I think is right.

He can take it out on Munster the following week. Wouldn't be surprised if he was totally tuned out if things work out the way they might. Why ? I'd be pretty sure he'll be in Bilbao on Saturday as 24th/25th/26th man, at the very least. Whole squad will probably travel, but with the foreigner restr...

Therefore Id struggle to see how anyone could support Racing given 90% of their team are just brought from every corner of the globe for the money and really wouldnt give a shit if they lose It's called professional sport. It costs money. There are more than 20 pro teams in France. Ireland has 4. A...

I don´t recall him or Stan being back tacklers, fullbacks are always exposed imo.

Here is an example from France game in Croke look at his pathetic attempt on Ibanez for first try when he was playing on the wing.
