Re: A damn shame

Its a real shame that the Magners League play-offs came this year- we are so far ahead in top spot, had it been the standard league format, we would have won it by now and could have devoted all energies to defending our Heineken Cup. What was last years champions Munster's points score at this sta...

Re: Semi-final or Final? Which should I go to? Advice requir

Must be the SF. Who ever wins in Toulouse will win the final , but to win there we will need every ounce of support. Thereafter buy a lotto. sell your body, your vinyl record collection, or as Groucho said ''keep sending those begging letters'' but a way will be found to get the dosh for the final .

Re: The Media on Leinster Supporters

Thornley is spot on , segregrated stadia within 10 years- at least for certain fixtures. Maybe he could have sweetened the pill by including examples from Munster Ulster etc, but his basic premise is correctamundo, and we have done our fair share to bring it about. A natural bi-product of the Heinek...

Re: Ireland - can we beat France?

Of course we can , it wont be easy and we could just as easily lose, and badly. But we have a number of things going for us - we have a settled squad and a coach who makes logical changes ( we may not agree with them but you can see his point ), whereas France have a flake who seems to make changes ...

jesus, do you work for ryanair? i thought everyone knew their flights on time thing was a joke. they claim dublin-liverpool (for example) will take 90 minutes, when it takes less than 60. then when they arrive 'early' they clap themselves on the back and booking early is a guarantee of a cheap flig...

Re: Is Michael O'Leary insane?

booking early would be great, if it weren't for ryanairs 'rescheduling" of flights. "you booked a flight for €70 at 4pm? unfortunately its been cancelled. there's a flight to the same destination now leaving at 4.01pm though. it will only cost an extra €350 for a ticket" its opportun...

Who would you guys have gone for? It's hard to pick one single player of the tour. A few players surprised me, including Simon Shaw, and Riki Flutey's outstanding performance on Saturday. Is Rob Kearney now a world class 15? Is Shaw the complete second row, as Liam Toland suggested? Have we drastic...
