Re: Rugby NAMA thread Revisited Rugby

Not enough local cases so we've started importing them again :x From Sweden among other places too! :| And it's ironic because Swedes aren't meant to be visiting Ireland based on their travel advice (but are allowed go to Italy apparently).

Nols the missus says Lyrath would be cheaper than Monart by a right few clicks and is decent enough. She paid something like 300 a night while Lyrath might be 200.

Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread

Ireland won't suffer as much as is feared, we definitely have enough players who want to play with the ball. The u20s have been trying to play like this for a while too. We need to find a second playmaker in the backline, and that would make a huge difference to how we play. Having Aki or Henshaw a...
