He’s giving most 50/50’s to Leinster so far so I expect him to flip flop in the second half

Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread

The reason we lost last year is because we tried to defend a 17-0 lead and stopped playing. With the amount of ball and go forward they had in the second half, we did well to still be in it at the end. You can't point to one missed tackle as the reason we lost. Yes you can No, no you can't.

Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread

They've gone 6/2 as well but have their "Molony" (ie Dillane) starting. Dillane has a lot more athletic ability than Moloney, TBF! Similar enough for me. Both fairly lightweight as locks go at the top tier of this competition. Dillane a bit better a ball-carrier, Molony a bit better a ball player. ...

Wondered if they'd go 6-2 with Connors starting. Presumably has the express instructions to just hit everything he can for 40-50 minutes. Touch on Conan. He'd better bring it off the bench to offset the biff lost when Jenkins come off. Also, Jenkins needs to have the performance for which he was re...
