Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread

They look like they have a bit more personality than you're crediting them with. Lowe in particular but because he's so good natured, it doesn't count for you. You're on a negative buzz for some reason. Bring back those amazingly engaging personalities Frankie Sheehan, Marcus Horan and John Hayes Y...

Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread

The last week was ROG's moment of hubris, egged on by the absolute knobs in the Irish media. Dragging munster into that mess as well. Boy his face must be red. Yeah, Radge is a coach playing the game, the media stirring it up are the silly ones. Two sides of the same coin - he fancies himself as a ...

Once again, talk of an epilogue. 😂 ROG has two back to back European medals against you in two finals.

Re: Heineken cup quarter final - Leinster vs La Rochelle

If he wants the Ireland job, he’ll have to try a job in Ireland at some point. ROG makes good career moves. Munster is not a good career move. They don't have the players with which he can do anything. Yeah, I can see any coach with ambitions of going higher avoiding them like crazy right now. That...

I thought he was even. Perhaps somewhat harsh on leinster. The forward pass for the try would embarrass Patrick Mahomes.
