The build-up to Sunday has begun, but Deano was saying some nice things! (ie not writing Leinster's pre-match team talk!) and none of this cr@p about the battle of the capitals! http://www.ercrugby.com/eng/12_12460.php Deano knows, they'll beat us if he doesn't give our team a reason to get riled, ...

I watched "Against the Head" this evening. The highlights weren't too flattering to leinster. I must say that D'Arcy seemed to miss a serious amount of front-on tackles; Gerry The Doyen put his unfamiliarity with defending the outside channel down as the reason. I'm not too convinced abou...

Quite frankly, the only foreign players I've seen Leinster sign that were worth their 300K are Ollie and Rocky. (And no I haven't forgotten anybody, who might be about to leave). This therefore calls into question the whole method that Leinster use to identify firstly what position they need to rec...

Really looking forward to it, just thinking about all that extra money I'm going to be spending on tax.

Yep - Thats as bad as EOS persuading Simon Easterby out of international retirement.

9 CW
10 JS
11 GD
12 ISA
13 BOD
14 FITZ
15 KEARNEY

Must be very disquieting for you that!

Please f##k off to a turnip forum and discuss your team. Not interested in your synopsis of the game. Your team deserved to win. They also deserve an award for cheating...no sorry...persistent cheating. Back from the game and without doubt a bigger bunch of tosser fans I hope never to meet again. W...

Had Hayes in all sorts of problem and carried well. Another outstanding performance from the young fella.

So did Gethin Jenkins - Signs are there for the big man, but what a great player he has been for club and country.
Up there with Reggie

Any chance JS will be cited after last night? Watched the incident again and again and it's still inconclusive, looks like Mafi might have been caught by Whit's trailing boot, though Sexton does seem to lash out alright, it's just impossible to see where his foot goes. Mafi was reacting to somethin...

JS at 10 definitely. Main reason being that FC is now looking to his future with Toulon and who can blame him. The last he wants to do now is pick up a career ruining injury - the man is only human after all, despite claims to the contrary by some on this MB. JS bringts a structured approach to our ...

TV Commentator sums it up.
FC v Munster - Performance as expected.
Why will MC never learn?

Before today, I assumed BOD would be in the line up, ready to go toe to toe. If he's injured or doubtful fair enough - next week v Quins is more critical. But why was BOD's non selection not explained in the team announcement on the Leinster site. All a bit unusual. But hopefully it'll be alright o...

It's rumoured that the Mayor of Hiroshima's last words were:- "What the f^(k was that?" Re this backs selection I'm minded to think "What the f^(k is this?" He's got to be joking - Shaggy at inside centre - sure that's how Warren lost his job all those years ago. Obviously kiwi's...

Sexton has to be first choice no.10 and place kicker next season. Nacewa kicking the penalties for Leinster does not do the national side or Sexton any good. The two areas that Ireland are short of cover is tight head and outhalf, if nacewa is first choice at 10 next year then i would despair, we n...

Seriously, if FC plays at ten, we haven't a chance.
This is not a WUM, but I can see our argentinian maestro, trying to settle a few scores and losing both his head and a few scores.
MC - This is an IQ test question for you! Have you learned anything about FC and Munster?

linux is lovely for the lower powered netbooks but as your looking to use itunes ubuntu is not really an option as it is not compatible. Also few netbooks come with ubuntu preinstalled you'd have to get it yourself. id probably recommend the Samsung NC10 or the Asus EEE PC, the probelm with the adv...

To be fair, most judges in this country (especially those on the High Court and Supreme Court) are highly skilled people at the peak of their earning capacity. Their salaries are still relatively low when compared with many civil servants and with almost all senior officials in the private sector. ...

That's why they call me "old" boy.
