I thought JGP was Motm by a country mile. McCarthy, Beirne, Doris, Lowe Keenan and a number of others had great games but JGP was exceptional. His best game with the boot for Ireland. Our kicking game was brilliant all round. Bench also had real impact. Conan and Kelleher in particular. We've a gre...

Saw this on twitter. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GFBt_POWUAEhc2J?format=png&name=900x900 You'd have to say McCarthy would be the form pick. Bierne probably 4th best but not much in it.

Playing pitches themselves should be pretty similar in size , in goal and perimeter areas will vary as per your measurements.

Jesus lads the negativity and pessimism ahead of Friday night’s game is a bit much . On the one hand some of you lot expect Ireland to be suffering from a RWC hangover but on the other expect France to bounce back positively. DuPont’s replacement is apparently going to prove himself as one of the be...

Rumours of Matt Gallagher returning to Munster. Not sure what to make of that, it's a wait and see type signing. There's been little talk of signings so far. A few would have put pen to paper by now. Bulls hooker Johan Grobelaar is rumoured to be signing. He would be a good signing. Munster players...

sorry to intrude on thread-does anyone know if its true that they have scheduled the france-ireland u20 game at the same time as the france v ireland test match? seems pretty absurd thing to do.

We've a strange way of taking it personally, what with being in complete agreement he's not there yet and will have to learn the hard way.

If Saints hadn’t lost a player, they’d have won by miles. Nah. Munster with the injuries were callow. If even Murray, Kleyn, Snyman were available, different game. Not to mention the missed kicks.

Rubbish they are professional players, tackling is a psychological thing, players are the ones dropping the ball, bumped off tackles.
