No offence taken. It'll be an interesting off season for us, hopefully we'll see some big changes off the park this summer. After another very dissapointing season where yet again we've shown that we can compete (just not consistently) if the Connacht Branch are serious about pro-rugby in the province a few of them will have to fall on their swords and make way for a small efficient totally professional management team.
Am pleased that seven of our guys, plus some old boys (McCormack and Browne) are heading over to the Churchill Cup. It'll be good experience for the likes of Hearty (who's been excellent all year), Fogarty, Gannon & Muldoon. And if the Eoghan Hickey rumour is true (the CB having announced nothing as per usual) then he'll benefit from the experience too...

Some teams and their supporters are so insecure that they have to hang on to past glories!
Well done on the boys in green finishing on a high by the way Seapoint,I know this will sound like a slag, but it isn't, it was good to see them finsh off the bottom of the table, roll on next season!
Only a man who knows what it is like to be defeated can reach down to the bottom of his soul and come up with the extra ounce of power it takes to win when the match is even.Muhammad Ali

Takes a lot to offend Seapoint.
Now.....Connacht. Time to disband them don't you think?
You're such a wag... (yep spelt that right....)...
