Re: Kidney Out.
It pains me to say it, but I told you so. Even though Murray had one of his better games, he was pinged twice for not putting the ball in quickly enough to the scrum, and his crap box kicking was crap and led to at least one try. The difference in 'zip' when Reddan came on was noticeable. Speaking ...

Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread
I think we'll take a cut at them, but I do fear the likes of Savea on the wings will only need one chance. Watching Sivivatu in the semi-final was a reminded of how lethal an ABs winger can be if given any space at all. How will our winger line up who is lining up against who? I don't know. I think...

Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread
Presumably GT got the team from Kidney before he wrote his piece. Can anyone recall an example of Thornley getting an Irish selection call wrong in the last few years since he stopped bothering to pretend to have his own opinions? I desperately hope the rumours are right but given how tight GT is w...

This is what annoys me most about turnip fans. POM is a decent player, but behind 5/6 Irish BRs in terms of talent. But he HAS to be given a place in the team, no matter what because he plays for Munster. Zebo is about f**king 15th in the country in terms of the back three, but Munster heads are sc...

The opposite is the case now in that you have lots of non-Leinster produced IQ players raising the level of the squad. Peter B...

I don't think Toner is the problem I think cullen is tbh. I think he is pass it.
A question for Leinster fans, do you think you would have beaten Clermont with Toner and Cullen in the row. I don't think you would have had, it is the one area of weakness in leinster!
