Re: Zebre v Leinster Sat 23 March KO 7:35pm RTE2
Looking at the team first I was a little worried but then deep diving there is a solid pack there with Ross M bossing the pack. Also in the friendlies we didn’t have Osborne and turner playing centre and I think they are a solid centre partnership. Couple that with Ross B having more rep time and fr...

Re: Rumour Mill
If (and it's quite a significant if) we can get Tupou fit both in terms of injuries as well as conditioning (which is suspect too), he would be a great signing. At 135kg+ he has the physical profile that we lack generally (Ala'alatoa is the closest thing at 125kg+). He has a loose game that no prop...

Re: Irish U20s 2024
Finn Treacy looks like he could be big potential on the wing. Big lad with great skills. Jack Murphy was superb tonight, those touch finders behind his goals were daggers for the English players. Am I being too harsh but spicers fitness looks to be lacking somewhat compared to others?

Re: Leinster Academy 23-24
Finn Treacy looked a handful tonight, our half backs were very impressive and the game was a delight to watch - very exciting talent coming through for all provinces

Re: A whiff of Cordite
When I saw the two I was keen to get their points but I thought Johnny Holland was very poor and gave very little to the conversationDave Cahill wrote: ↑March 4th, 2024, 9:47 pmThought so too.

Re: Cardiff Away, March 2nd
The reality is that it would have probably been a better choice having Harry playing 10 and Ross playing 12 last night - Ross being the better tackle. Think it’s very unfair to be saying that Harry shouldn’t be near our 10 spot on a performance at 12 where he really is not a 12 at all. I’d be very h...

Re: Leinster Squad 23-24
Back to the Ross story/rumour, my reason for posting last week was he out of contract at the end of the season, was that the rumour of his leaving was mentioned at an outing I was at, would be sad to see him go but wouldn’t begrudge him especially with the lack of games he’s getting this season and ...

Re: Saracens vs Leinster, 23rd of Feb
Two things on this, I’m almost sure that the last style of friendly like this was where we played chile before the World Cup in a warmup for them. We hosted however chile streamed the match and had over 5k in viewers which was played midweek in the afternoon if I’m not mistaken. Leinster are very fo...

Re: A whiff of Cordite
Just been listening to several podcasts from our mainstream media over the last few days and I have to say it really disappoints me that they are not willing to be critical of players (especially when they come from wearing a red jersey) who have a poor performance for Ireland. Maybe I’m wrong but I...

Re: Leinster vs Benetton, Feb 17th, 2024
Guess the writing is on the wall so for Michael Milne and he's out the door. Exciting side though - great to see Osborne and RB back. Keen to see how McErlean does - he was very exciting at 20s. Barron looks like he took advantage of McKee's injury this season to have possibly edged in front there ...

Re: 6N: Ireland Italy - Dublin 3pm Sun 11 Feb 2024
Thought Casey was the difference between a 36 point winning margin and a 50+ point winning margin if JGP had started. Frequently took the wrong option. The kick before half time was awful , we were sure to score if he kept the ball in play. Caolin Blade must be wondering what he has to do to get a ...

Re: Leinster Squad 23-24
Melbourne Rebels have gone into voluntary administration. They'll play Super Rugby this year, but seems like the future is on rocky ground. I'd take Taniela Tupou as a Big Mike replacement for a few years if he was going cheap! Would be nice but couldn’t see rugby Australia letting him go with lion...

Re: Another Friendly During 6 Nations
Delighted to see Leinster sorting more games out but it’s a bit of a downer that they haven’t managed to get one of them at home. Are they going to be on Leinster tv for viewing??

Re: RDS redevelopment
We are always going to be between two stools in terms of a home ground. The high construction costs of the relatively limited rds development proves that its not worth building our own stadium when we can rent the aviva. Maybe the qf will be in the rds due to the short turn around. For a long time ...

Bernard Jackman today saying POM the “clear cut” choice for Irish captain, literally a week after tipping Doris. I used to actually like Jackman and his analysis, but he’s turned into an awful chytehawk. He’ll say anything that comes into his head, typically with a view to jumping on any bandwagon....

Re: Leicester v Leinster Sat 20th 3.15 TNT Sports
I’d be disappointed if Burns somehow made his way back into an Ireland squad. He’s awful. Does 1 performance against Leinster get you international recognition? He was poor just last week against Toulouse or have people overlooked that? I understand injuries have opened the door but picking Prender...
