Re: Lions v Leinster - Sat 20 April, 14.00 - RTE2

Sorry disagree with the views on selection McKee is only back from a long term injury and in the same manner as Milne is being brought back slowly, I don’t disagree that Barron following his poor showing in SA last season has seriously upped his game this season and is a great headache to have 4 st...

Re: New contracts for coaching ticket

I can't see LAR anymore in my rearview mirror for all the dust. Enough already. We've got a tricky URC quickening to navigate, a Euro semi vs Northampton in Jones' Road and, if we win that, a possible Mother of All Finals vs Dupont, Ntamack and the rest of the Toulouse garcons in London.

Re: Jordi Barrett to sign for Leinster

Priceless stuff. Leinster replace Ngatai with Barrett so.... Waterfordlad I've been a member of Irish Rugby Supporters Club since 2008, mainly for access to tickets/events. No more, I'm done. The power of one. It's a small thing at 50 euros a year but I'm quitting on principle. I'll still support M...

Wonder will Murphy stay on in any capacity if true or head back to the U20s? He's too good to be bumped around as IRFUs supply teacher. I couldn't see him at this point being interested in any role that isn't Head Coach - he has more coaching experience than Payne. The two of them together? Mightn'...

Re: Jordi Barrett to sign for Leinster

by Colmodon Agree with this. Jackman was talking about the potential Jordie signing on the 42 and said he thought other provinces need more budget. In principle I don't really disagree, but I just don't really understand what they would do with that budget? What does another million get for Ulster ...

Re: New contracts for coaching ticket

I remember being very impressed by a story I read in the press about Anthony Foley during the season he'd taken over at Munster, after Rob Penny got the heave-ho. At the time the Reds weren't getting the desired results and the faithful were making their dissatisfaction increasingly known. Part of t...

Re: Jordi Barrett to sign for Leinster

A lot of comments are making the assumption that the IRFU are funding this when in honesty 90% of the rugby public don’t have a clue (me included), but that aside who is to say this isn’t privately funded like marque signing in the past in Munster and Ulster, I’m fairly sure there are private inves...
