Fair play to Munster. It takes away some of the sour taste from last weekend.

From the Torygraph comments section: Ireland won't win the RWC, We saw their limitations today. It's a level playing field in a RWC with teams able to have the same amount of time together. The only reason Ireland do well in the 6N is because they wrap their Leinster and Ulster boys in cotton wool i...

Hey, lets park interprovincial rivalries for the time being.

Best of wishes, Dan.

Curses. That's two hours of my life that I'll never get back.

You need neutral refs and TMOs. Not some D4 sectarian ringers.

Comment about Frank Murphy on UAFC.

D4 West Brit ringers is the perception among the looper fringe of Shelbyville.

Use of the term rejects is a bit much.

Agreed. Are Sean Cronin and Rob Henshaw, respectively, Munster and Connacht rejects?

At least one MF poster is licking his lips at the prospect of the Leinster backbone of the international squad emerging, battered and depleted from the Six Nations for the dynamos of Toulon to duly devour.

Where is that follicularly-challenged dude? I miss his acerbic wit and penetrating analysis.

Everybody calm down. The beeb account was 'worse case scenario stuff' Here is a far more accurate report from RTE: http://www.rte.ie/sport/rugby/sixnations/2010/0321/odriscollb.html It sounds like a simple sprain - BOD was able to play the second half afterwards - not the sort of thing likely to sid...

The truth is probably somewhere in between. I watched the Leinster/LI match in Limerick's main rugby pub (not the 'Sin Bin'). Most of the entourage were for Leinster but a not insignificant number cheered for the other side. The standard line when the latter group are challenged is: 'We don't want t...

Decided to take my life in my hands and stuck one up outside my workplace in Limerick city centre.

So are tickets bought after the 6 allocation going to be cancelled or what? Where's Dave Cahill when you need him? Yes - anyone who bought more than the allocation they were entitled to will have their ENTIRE allocation cancelled. Word is travelling like wildfire in Limerick with the result that an...

According to our Munsterfans: Exiled Munster fan, Leinster season ticket holder. "Email from Leinster rugby said I could buy 6 tickets and they gave me a secure password. I got tired after purchasing 12 tickets so I rang my brother in law, he also bought 12. Needless to say tickets will be hea...

I'm looking forward to grooving in, resplendent in blue, using my Munster season ticket.

How would you like your crow served, Mr. Glennon?

interesting, what site is that from?
Planet Rugby

Came across the following interesting theory in another forum: 'I have been told by a reliable source in the IRFU that they have a very aggressive gameplan. The IRFU, WRU and SRU will all pull out of the 6 Nations next year, this will put a gun to the head of the RFU and FRU and they will be forced ...

I dunno, kids.


The C-grade rhetoric is cringe-inducing.

I disagree.nothing like a bit of Churchillian rhetoric to get the adrenaline flowing.
As he might have said:
' The batlle of Munster is over.The battle of Leinster ...'
