Leinster still treating Connacht as a development province I see. a development province that has won more silverware in recent years than Munster. :clap: of course munster may change that this season with the help of saffers and leinster men. Like you we have people form outside the province, unli...

And his brother is getting game time too down below, he looked good too hope he dosent get pushed out next year because of the classic southern combo of an NIQ and a young leinster player being moved.

Yes COB very encouraging and some other encouraging performances but hard to judge as jeepers Ulster were poor.........I know it's their second strong but they offered absolutely nothing going forward. We could easily have scored another 3-4 if it wasn't for mistakes and they spent most of the nigh...

Great to see Daly back. That Ulster back three is tiny and inexperienced, could really exploit them there. Leavy injured? Even if he is, amazing to think that Penny justifies his selection in an interpro like this. Happy to see Deegan back starting as well, hope he delivers. Anyone who gives away a...

Cian Kelleher is “likely” to rejoin Leinster on a two year deal according to the independent. Anyone hear anything? Link? I wouldn’t rush out to re-sign him, with Jack and Hugo graduating and two very promising year 2 academy players as of next year backing up 6 senior wingers it makes no sense. Un...

And a partridge on a pear tree

Can muster stop signing additional long term signings under the guise of a short term “medical joker” or at least wait for their last short term medical joker who signed two and a half years ago to leave before signing another https://m.independent.ie/sport/rugby/munster-rugby/medical-joker-mathewso...

True but would of been balanced to ask him both questions, then ask if it drive him to join Munster Why? He did 3 years in the academy working pizza delivery in Base across the road from the rds and at the end all he got was a shitty t shirt maybe a few other bits. It was massive for him to come ba...

21 minutes spent on Munster on off the ball this evening. 18 minutes spent on munster on off the ball this morning. 4 minutes spent on Leinster on off the ball this evening. 5 minutes spent on leinster on off the ball this morning. :lol: In fairness there seemed to be a lot going on in the Munster ...

But it’s cup final day for them, expect their strongest 23 available

True but would of been balanced to ask him both questions, then ask if it drive him to join Munster Beirne took a pay cut (outbid by Scarlets!!!) to play for Ireland. He had no interest in joining Munster and would have stayed where he was if he wasn’t in the picture for caps. I have no idea to wha...

And last year we signed stars in Lowe and Fardy. So we have been allowed some level of replacement in some positions.

Tomane is squad player at best, hardly cover for what left. Lots of years one and two academy players promoted early

Saw Luke ask Bernie how much he enjoyed beating leinster in the Pro12 semi of 2017, forgot to ask him how he felt being hammered in the final 12 months later and of course the semi in the Heineken cup. Shame really because that’s what I wanted to know

You’d imagine Connachts selection for the Christmas period will be heavily skewed towards the 2 home games vs Munster and Ulster. So quite possibly no Aki, Bealham or Roux. Think we should use the opportunity to get some youth on the pitch. As an aside 4 wins in the league to the 6N should wrap up ...

Munster group will be the 5th ranked pool winner and will be away in both a QF and SF if that team should make it. Considering Munster were 3rd seeds, they got about as easy a group as you could hope for, Castres who never show up in Europe, Gloucester who are a very average team and Exeter who are...

The question should be why should leinster need to see if academy players are ready. Leinster currently supply the two first choice looseheads to the national team, we understand that and as such have developed a squad containing 4 looseheads so we can field a team during internationals. Now some mi...

I used to love this thread, now every time I see it with new comments my stomach turns and I open it with fear and dread in equal measure. In relation to the loosheads we need 4 as we currently provide the 2 starters to the national team. If we dont have two other loosehrads we can’t field a proper ...

That was such an impressive first half. Penny and COB are the two youngsters who have really shone for me in the last week. It's a pity for Penny that he has so much competition but COB could become important for us quite quickly given that Robbie is the only other 12 we have who can carry like tha...

You can't transfer players between provinces mid contract.[/quote]

Not even if you already have 4 outlalves already?
