Re: Grahamunster - Graham Rowntree's Munster 2022/2023

Munster "chip on the shoulder" and "backs to the wall" is nonsense. They had the Irish international pack from about 2000 to 2008 with the addition of some excellent overseas players. They had a top class 10 and some experienced backs. The fabled Munster fight and aura was actua...

Re: Leinster v Sharks Sat 8th Oct 17.05pm RTE/Premier Sports

Strong side. Big Mike, JJ, Molony and Luke have started all of our first four games. Really starting to feel uncomfortable about the reliance on Big Mike and feel it is compounded by us also flogging JJ. When Vakh finally starts a game, it would be good for him to have JJ behind him. Jenkins will h...

Thought it was quite acceptable.
It is very acceptable but unfortunately not on sale in the new fan zone which is tough if you have to drive 50km home after every home game.

Don't all AIL clubs have to sign a declaration confirming that they don't provide any incentives to players, including accommodation?

Re: Zebre v Leinster Sat 17 Sep KO 1pm RTE2

We have British teams in the league, I’m guessing that’s why. Applying that logic - if the Italian president kicked the bucket, we should expect that a game played 10 days later between Glasgow and Dragons would be preceded by a minutes silence ? Don't think so, its just another example of the worl...

Re: Rugby Championship 2022

Agree that reynaud was correct but this needs to be applied consistently, including our two games v S. A. in November and at the RWC.

Re: Grahamunster - Graham Rowntree's Munster 2022/2023

Turns out that there are a good few people surprised that the game sold out so quickly. Some family and friends were already on to me asking me to keep an eye out for tickets because they didn’t get them early enough. Someone might give munster a trophy for selling out PUC so quickly - the famine i...

Re: Leinster Squad 22-23

If the world player of the year award was based purely on performance, JVDF would be a shoe in for 2022.

Re: Grahamunster - Graham Rowntree's Munster 2022/2023

SA play France in Marseilles 48 hours after the game in Cork.
Likely that 28+ players plus the senior coaches will travel to France on the day after the game in the Aviva - no chance that they will even travel to Cork.

Re: Robbie Henshaw - Best IQ signing?

Tony Ward was the rugby equivalent of Liam Brady, undoubted skill and flair with a talent that shone like a thousand suns. However like Brady, I always felt he was a bit of a passenger letting the other lads do the hard work. He turned out to be just as good a commentator as Brady too, so there’s t...
