Same happened last year to a very talented StM team that came up short V ‘Rock in first round. I agree though , that for some reason a lot of the ‘Elite’ teams dont get to play in the League competition before Christmas. Not sure if that was a instigated originally by Leinster, or the schools thems...

edwin isnt. is overage. His younger brother Sean is under 19 but most likely wont play 20s this year.

RFU and PRL wouldnt give go ahead. We're still not getting best out of the 4 provinces we do have.
We coulld do more to help the extended squad players within the provinces and getting them A games etc than this as well

Railways head coach/director of womens rugby has been making a few very long threads on twitter about womens rugby/IRFU etc.

As I understand it, underage rugby has no contested / limited contest scrums. I’m not sure what the laws are in other countries at underage but I wonder if there’s something here that our guys aren’t learning technique and dark arts early enough?

Cistercian Roscrea have had a partnership with N-Pro for a few years now with a lot playing rugby in the school wearing them

Thanks Mildly Leinster providing 41% of the squad 8 from clubs [a healthy 23% of Leinter players] 9 from Blackrock [5 finals & 4 SCT wins in last 10 years] 6 from Michael's [3 finals & 2 SCT wins in last 10 years] 3 from Kilkenny College [an outlier, producing talent despite never, ever hav...

Barnhall are a good side. We beat them narrowly and could easily have been a loss for us

Munsters Garryowen. Huge crowd. Not great game. Cookies should have won by lot more than they did

Very poor start by most Limerick sides in 1A and 2A especially

First round of games tomorrow

IRFU have previews of opening games up
