Re: Cardiff Away, March 2nd

that's a strong line up. Harry at 12? interesting. didn't see that coming. That Leinster team heading to Cardiff has 3 more 10s in the line up than Ulster have for the 2024-25 season. Rumours of Frawley being their starting 10. I'd steer clear if I was him Frawley staying with Leinster by all accou...

Re: A whiff of Cordite

Plus Geoghegan's name was difficult to spell :wink: It still is! It has about four superfluous letters. Phonetically spelling it would probably get me banned. If we are pulling posters up on misspelling names, it will be a long battle though. I'm often amazed by how posters on here misspell even si...

Re: URC 2023/24

That's impressive. Capacity of Loftus Versfeld is 51,000. 100-130 Rand (€4.50-€5.50) each for premium seats near the 22 . Any Leinster supporters travelled down for our URC Games before know the all-in price for a trip? Wouldn't mind doing it, just for the experience. A few buddies went on previous...

Re: 6N Ireland Wales - Dublin 2:15pm Sat 24 Feb

Does anyone have a bead on the Championship permutations? Should we beat Wales with winning BP, and Scotland beat England and both without any kind of BP, at what stage do we become uncatchable? Could we hypothetical win in Twickenham and lose to Scotland, and have a scenario where the Scots win th...

He started off bound to the centre, once he was no longer bound to him he was offside and had to retreat behind the hindmost foot. He didn't, that's a penalty He switched his bind to no.6, who was the ball carrier, and who was prevented from grounding the ball by Beirne who was offside. That's a pe...

As BR8 says TOT should be rightly cheesed off; from what I've seen he's much better than OJ. He's been good in the tight, and has demonstrated (in tests) good speed, and hands, and decision making. Lets see how Ollie goes - good luck to him. Are we going to call him OJ? And so.... "the juice&q...

It's that origin thing the URC are running this weekend I think - players allowed to wear their club socks etc. Obviously that's the club Rhys chose to nominate.
