Plenty of moans on here tonight too!

The 3 backline injuries in the first 30 minutes haven't helped.

Any truth to the Dave Kearney joining Ulster rumour?

He is only gone about a year... but yeah can't blame him, say he is having the time of his life in oz. He is loving it all right but things can change and it's tough to make it to the senior teams, so you never know. I'd imagine he is a talented enough athlete to come back after a year or two and s...

After speaking to him twice recently enough, he has absolutely no intentions of coming home permanently any time soon.

So you're saying we should have 5 professional standard specialist opensides on the books? The whole of England doesn't even have one :lol: No chance on us getting a NIQ lad in the backrow, can you imagine the uproar if we did? We are still hearing from the likes of EOS complaining about us signing...

Any chance they could move these kind of games around Ireland?? I know its handy having everything in Dublin but c'mon the crowds have been awful for both the women and the U20s at Donnybrook this season.

The thing that amuses me , is that there was all this talk about 'strength in depth' .... that lie has been well and truly put to bed in the past 2 weeks.. If anyone thinks that Reid is anything more than a good AIL standard, then I think they're deluded... The Leo line about resting the 'Old man '...

Which passengers were starting? That was a team of guys who have all got either a lot of experience or have been playing well over the season. Scarlets were missing similar numbers to us and on paper our side was much stronger. Passengers is maybe not the right word, but I was trying to riff on you...

I still think the Pro14 should allow every club sign a player from a Tier 2/3 country that doesn't count as a foreign player and if they make the matchday squad the team gets an extra spot on the bench It's kind of hilarious to see the reactions to this. The same people who complain about teams not...

Happy to have him here. Hopefully he comes good for us.

Ben Betts is leaving Leicester next season. http://sportinglimerick.com/exclusive-b ... ar-future/

There was some talk online that Byrne was heading north at the end of the season fwiw. Also rumousr doing the rounds that 1)Jackson and Olding are getting P45s irrespective of the outcome of the trial b)They want out of Belfast if they're found innocent Wow. That would be a terrible shame (if they ...

The world wasn't as PC mad back then.

Any chance of Isa being kept for another year? Centre is the one spot we lack dept and he looks really good in that 12 position. He could also cover 10 as there's a good chance Ross Byrne could be with Ireland too.

Stunning stuff from the Scarlets and a good result for us. As others have alluded to, any form of wins for Ulster, Exeter and Racing along with us picking up a TBP win on Sunday mean we'll be virtually guaranteed a top 2 seed before heading to France for round 6. Lovely. On a side note, I hope we'l...

We really messed up with Beirne. Delighted it's worked out for him though!

+1million.

It's indicative of what a sh!t show Munster are and the continued life support they're existing on. The desperation clamor to get South Africans in before the 5 year rule was pretty pathetic. They've lost all semblance of identity and are the first to completely sell out. Now all their fans whinge ...

Yeah he wasn't.

How do you know? I'm not saying you're wrong just wondering.
