What if Doris is fit? Would you drop Fardy?
Frawley covers a lot of positions, how about Doris at 23. Keep Fardy in there.

Frawley hasn’t played and mightn’t be 100%.

That's great news. I wonder how tickets will be allocated, were we to get to the final I'm sure the supporters club has a direct line to the all the ex-pat Blues members

Will we be allowed to travel from Ireland if we do get to the final without isolating on either side?

Travellers from ROI to UK do not have to isolate on arrival in the UK.
The odds are good but the goods are odd.

They will probably go mainly to corporate sponsors and people connected to the various unions

I can't see them going to anyone who hasn't had 1 and possibly may need even 2 jabs

for the fa cup semi final NHS staff had the tickets and I think they all had to have had at least the one jab

There's no chance of any of us going if we start talking about the final before playing a semi-final. This is not the thread to be discussing the final.

I am still scarred by Perpignan in 2003. All the build up to that match was about a home final versus Toulouse and we got suckered punched by Manny feckin Edmonds.

Eyes on the prize, people. And the prize is beating La Rochelle.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen R Osborne play a game bar once, what’s he like? Is he any better than HOS?

Happy with Osborne at 21. Safer pair of hands than HO'S, IMO.

He played a game down in Thomond, where we disrespected the fixture, and won. I think he played well that day.
