Kelleher's throwing is a joke anyway.irishrugbyua wrote: ↑Fri Jan 29, 2021 10:03 pm Byrne's throwing was excellent from what I saw..
it really would make you wonder what sort of specialized skill training leinster do for hookers.
Sure they haven't been able to develop a consistent thrower in over a decade.. now Byrne is suddenly nailing everything after leaving.. questionable skill coaching to say the least.Floppykid wrote: ↑Fri Jan 29, 2021 10:14 pmKelleher's throwing is a joke anyway.irishrugbyua wrote: ↑Fri Jan 29, 2021 10:03 pm Byrne's throwing was excellent from what I saw..

I’m not sure they were too hasty, Byrne was 26 when he left and fourth in the pecking order with Sheehan coming through .

Fair play to him though , he looks a new man at Bristol

I don't like talking shit about young players but tbh never really saw anything to say he was the standard Leinster would be after.Lazy Couch potato wrote: ↑Fri Jan 29, 2021 11:31 pm What are the thoughts on Patterson leinsterites? Was he the lad that played in the o’classico in thomond in 18 and did well or was that a different lad.
Kelleher's action looks OK to me. Timing seems to be the issue and IMO he deserves a pass on this for the moment as training has been somewhat disrupted. My memory of his initial period at the start of 19/20 was that his throwing was fine.Floppykid wrote: ↑Fri Jan 29, 2021 10:14 pmKelleher's throwing is a joke anyway.irishrugbyua wrote: ↑Fri Jan 29, 2021 10:03 pm Byrne's throwing was excellent from what I saw..

Ball of energy but basics not consistenly good enough..Lazy Couch potato wrote: ↑Fri Jan 29, 2021 11:31 pm What are the thoughts on Patterson leinsterites? Was he the lad that played in the o’classico in thomond in 18 and did well or was that a different lad.
Yeah but that doesn’t explain the improvement in his throwing since leaving Leinster for Bristol thoughBogbunny wrote: ↑Sat Jan 30, 2021 12:12 amTwo thingsirishrugbyua wrote: ↑Fri Jan 29, 2021 10:19 pmSure they haven't been able to develop a consistent thrower in over a decade.. now Byrne is suddenly nailing everything after leaving.. questionable skill coaching to say the least.Floppykid wrote: ↑Fri Jan 29, 2021 10:14 pmKelleher's throwing is a joke anyway.irishrugbyua wrote: ↑Fri Jan 29, 2021 10:03 pm Byrne's throwing was excellent from what I saw..

Bath tonight is one of the weakest performances by a professional team that I have watched in the last 20 odd years

Leinster may need a dedicated skills coach.. the inability to get high level consistent basics from certain positions in the squad is not really good enough.Conspicuous wrote: ↑Sat Jan 30, 2021 9:53 amYeah but that doesn’t explain the improvement in his throwing since leaving Leinster for Bristol thoughBogbunny wrote: ↑Sat Jan 30, 2021 12:12 amTwo thingsirishrugbyua wrote: ↑Fri Jan 29, 2021 10:19 pmSure they haven't been able to develop a consistent thrower in over a decade.. now Byrne is suddenly nailing everything after leaving.. questionable skill coaching to say the least.Floppykid wrote: ↑Fri Jan 29, 2021 10:14 pmKelleher's throwing is a joke anyway.irishrugbyua wrote: ↑Fri Jan 29, 2021 10:03 pm Byrne's throwing was excellent from what I saw..

I wouldn't say sacked. It just looks liked he's being replaced at the end of the season. His contract must be up.irishrugbyua wrote: ↑Fri Jan 29, 2021 9:50 pm jaysus bath are awful
apparently Girve was sacked by them recently.

talk in the papers now that Felipe will be staying, but who knows.Leinsterman wrote: ↑Sat Jan 30, 2021 11:30 amI wouldn't say sacked. It just looks liked he's being replaced at the end of the season. His contract must be up.irishrugbyua wrote: ↑Fri Jan 29, 2021 9:50 pm jaysus bath are awful

Who's replacing Felipe by the way?
He was never leaving. It was just Earl doing his usual of getting pissy about something that hadn't even happened yetConspicuous wrote: ↑Sat Jan 30, 2021 12:02 pm Looks like Henderson is staying

yep odds were always on him staying. So we will lose Coetzee, probably Faddes and possibly Mathewson. I'd imagine Ludik will retire. Not sure if he will go the coaching routeHighKingLeinster wrote: ↑Sat Jan 30, 2021 12:43 pmHe was never leaving.

Yep. We are in a good place to actually go and win something so it's a no brainer for him to stay.DiscoHips D'Arcy wrote: ↑Sat Jan 30, 2021 1:27 pmyep odds were always on him staying.

The second however was pure competence.

Has he not been there since start of 2019 season. Shirely there should be more than glimpses of his effect at this stage, even allowing for coaches.
Tbf, could just be shit commentators
Who cares. Our defensive fudge up.
Did I see "personal reasons" mentioned in the press somewhere?Munster-fogs wrote: ↑Sat Jan 30, 2021 6:30 pm What's the story with Conway? He hasn't played in a couple of months and nobody seems to know why.
It slipped to the line as he was reaching for the try. You could see it on replay and see the footprint on the line.
