Re: European Champions Cup 23/24
A lot of the tickets already sold for the Investec final with a 2.45pm kick off stated would be a further issue. Especially with many having travel arrangements booked. While FA CUP Final tickets aren't released until after the semis.

Re: European Champions Cup 23/24
Although ITV always get thumped in the ratings for the FA Cup Final (or any other shared soccer match) by the BBC. Still expect the rugby to be the one pushed to ITV 3 or 4. Maybe a slight chance of it being the main channel if it is a Harlequins and Northampton final. There will probably be a dome...

Re: H Cup Final 2024 London
In fairness, the schedule time would have looked more moronic if the Investec Cup was scheduled for around 5.30pm and was going directly up against the time the FA Cup was originally intended for. Unfortunately, the police have intervened with an all Manchester final and pushed it back to an earlier...

Munster wearing these jerseys against the Bulls is very annoying.
(Not as annoying as the Emirates Lions DJ though)

Re: Investec Player of The Year 2024
God I hate this ever creeping commercialism. Unless I am mistaken this award has never before been named after the sponsor. It was the European player of the year or the EPCR player of the year. Why is it necessary to ram the sponsor down our throats? EDIT - Mods can we change the title to European...

Well done to Ross Byrne. Stood up firmly in defence, took a few late hits and managed the game well without looking to doing anything out of the ordinary.

Van der Flier is I am sure upset not to have started.
But is the player I absolutely love having to come off the bench here.

Lowe not absolutely perfect but having a magnificent game. Especially after lacklustre nature of last week.

Re: A whiff of Cordite
Enjoying reminiscing about the Crazy Gang's great FA Cup success.
Everyone talks about Aldridge's miss, but hardly ever hear mention of Beardsley's goal that was ruled out to award Liverpool a free outside the box instead

Form book says is about who gets to lose to Toulouse in the final. Edit: so obsessing over LaR is missing the point. They're just the next team up. I go with the draw falling kindly for Toulouse. With them having the hex over La Rochelle who have the hex over Leinster who have the hex over Toulouse.

Re: Croke Park to host major Leinster rugby games
molecast great on this today. Yes - but they did seem to think RDS would be available for the URC QF whereas I think Croke Park is being mooted for that. They asked what number of tickets need to be sold to pay for Croke Park. I think I saw somewhere that the GAA charge 750k for it - just taking th...

Re: Re: Ireland vs Scotland, Saturday, 4.45pm
Amazingly - if we score 4 tries or lose by less than 7 points - we win the championship assuming England don't win by more than 80 points.... away in France... Has it ever been the case that a team has won the tournament with 2 losses? Much less 2 losses in a row? Should we lose to Scotland it will...

Re: England v Ireland Saturday 9th March 2024 4.45pmTwickenham
Better team on the day won the game. 6:2 came to haunt us, but we never got out of 3rd gear except for both of Lowe's tries. Well played England's attack, the least vaunted part of their ability. Bundee, JGP, JVdF & Hugo were excellent but we rarely sparked as a team. A Grand Slam is hard to wi...
