Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread

Unionists are a significant minority in Ireland, representing somewhere in the region of 13 to 14 percent of the population. Almost all descendants of unionists in the Republic no longer class themselves a...

There is nothing that better sums up the last decade of Munster rugby, than Stephen Archer being our most capped player of all time. He just epitomises the lack of standards in the front row.

It's offside as the lazy runners change the play completely. That’s what I assumed they were looking at. Those lads are running straight across Murray’s passing line. Raynal can fcuk off if he thinks the only thing to be checked on that play was whether Slade was onside (he was). The lazy runners s...
