Leinster v Glasgow URC Q/F Sat 4th June 15:15
Hangover match so could be dodgy enough.
Injuries could be a factor too.

Mirror, Mirror on the Wall who's the greatest player of them all? It is Drico your majesty.

Doubt we’ll see Furlong or Lowe. Kelleher looked f%~ked.
I’d also be surprised if we see Sexton before a possible final, if at all.
Might need to give players like Molony and Doris a breather.

I think you change a lot. We have the depth in a lot of places, use it.
Let the tired bodies rest and the rested bodies get a chance.

I'd say they'll have to assess... Some guys might need to get straight back on the horse but I suspect there'll be a lot of emotionally drained players. I'd take a serious look at some of those that went to SA or won over Munsterronk wrote:I think you change a lot. We have the depth in a lot of places, use it.

I like your right leg. A lovely leg for the role.
I've got nothing against your right leg.
The trouble is ... neither have you

Think Tracy is injured so will be Cronin or McKee on the bench.curates_egg wrote: ↑May 29th, 2022, 7:30 pm Doubt we’ll see Furlong or Lowe. Kelleher looked f%~ked.

Surely by now, Joe McCarthy would be ahead of Josh Murphy in a game with this amount of stakes. He looks a really special player.curates_egg wrote: ↑May 29th, 2022, 7:30 pm Doubt we’ll see Furlong or Lowe. Kelleher looked f%~ked.

I think there's an argument that for a lot of the lads who played on Saturday having the opportunity to go bate Glasgow in a knockout match would help get them back on the horse.

Re: Leinster v Glasgow URC Q/F Sat 4th June 15:15
I really don't understand the approach to McCarthy. Molony was absolutely gassed on Saturday and we needed bods making tackles. Yet they only brought him on with 3 minutes to go. Either he is ahead - and you play him - or he isn't.dougie the flanker wrote: ↑May 30th, 2022, 10:46 amSurely by now, Joe McCarthy would be ahead of Josh Murphy in a game with this amount of stakes.

I would be happy to see him start though.
That said, every time I see Murphy play lately, I am reminded what we are losing. He has done very well for us in the row this season.

Re: Leinster v Glasgow URC Q/F Sat 4th June 15:15
He's done fine but he's definitely 6th choice second row at best and maybe 7th choice in the back row pecking order. And even leaving McCarthy aside you have another half dozen lads in the academy coming through that look promising.curates_egg wrote: ↑May 30th, 2022, 11:23 am That said, every time I see Murphy play lately, I am reminded what we are losing.

As divisive a signing as Jason Jenkins is I think he'll give you a bit more of what you need. An extra 3-4 inches of height and 15kg will be important with Devin Toner moving on.

I wonder if porridge might be close for this. Would be great to see him back involved.
Re: Leinster v Glasgow URC Q/F Sat 4th June 15:15
Taking of Porridge, I was down by the port in Marseille before the game and Devin Toner was there taking pictures with the fans. A lad walked up to him to get a photo and Toner duly obliged but right after he turned to him and said, “f%~k off!”
I was wondering what happened there until I realised it was Will Connors. Toner didn’t recognise him at first
With James Lowe not being able to remember his actual name during an interview, seems like he’s not the most memorable man.

Judging by ticketmaster we are in for an embarrassing attendance on Saturday.
Absolutely oodles of tickets in the two main stands remaining.

Re: Leinster v Glasgow URC Q/F Sat 4th June 15:15
I think across the board there seems to be a bit of apathy towards these matches. A lot of Leinster fans are probably drained financially and emotionally and are banking on an easy win before rallying back around for the Semi Final and Final.
There's still a fair few tickets left for Ulster vs Munster in Ravenhill and that only holds 17k.
Re: Leinster v Glasgow URC Q/F Sat 4th June 15:15
The fans aren’t made of money. Don’t think you realise how expensive that trip to Marseille was. I’m sure there will be a big attendance for the URC final.
