Gone.

In general - I love when comments like these are written. Every year we say that we need to develop a squad, but the daft attitude in Ireland is that someone owns a Jersey and nobody else ever deserves game time unless there is an injury. If we can't try test TWO new positions in a home game agains...

In defence of Earls, playing outside Mafi must be hugely frustrating. He seemed to get loads of ball but I think you could probably count the number of passes he made on one hand. Considering one of the few times he actually did manage to pass they combined to split us open makes it even more baffl...

Doubt so. I don't think many people were under the impression that Geech was bringing him as a starting centre which seems to be what you're implying by saying he's surely having to think or rethink about Earls' role in the squad. I'm assuming you're not over, over-exaggerating the importance of the...

Good as BOD was yesterday I actually thought Darce was man of the match. How many tackles did he make? Quality! So true...between Darce and Drico they showed that upstart Earls, that he has no place on a Lions tour. Bet Ian McGeechan is regretting that selection! He has every right to be on that to...

Wish I could give a Corkonian compliment but such was the manner of defeat, I can't. Well done and good luck.

Open to correction on this, but didn't you have him for the quarters, semis and final last year? Do you not think there's an advantage of having that big game experience with him that you can analyse tape of him and how he has reacted to every facet of your game over so many minutes in the competit...

In the context of how the game panned out, a forward battle mostly, it's a bit simplistic to say that a full back, wing and centre(Fritz) would have been the winning of the game. The team that was sent out, while missing some top players, wasn't lacking in ability to carry out a different game plan ...

There was an improvement in their Grand Slam tour alright.

Maybe I shouldn't be so definite about it but as far as passing accuracy and range plus awareness of space goes, I'd rate Mafi more highly but maybe you've been watching the Canes regularly. I haven't.

What makes you think Mafi is far off Nonu's standard? While he's not as physically strong a ball carrier, he's very capable of fixing defences to create space and get go forward ball. Just like Nonu too, he's quick and well able to step. He's a better distributor, a part of his game which he's impro...

5 - Garryowens to be landing just outside the 22 Don't know why teams, especially those struggling against our defence, never try pressuring Warwick with garryowens because he's not a very accomplished fielder of the ball. Yet with the current rules they're happy enough to kick it long to such a go...

Give me Leinster midfield instead of Mafi, Earls and Tipoki any day. Don't get me wrong, they do very well for Munster, but in the talent stakes they are not on the same page as Phil, D'Arce, BOD. Necewa etc. Its not individual talent that is wrong with Leinster, we all know that How do you make th...

Which e-mail address did he get onto? I've tried tickets@leinsterrugby.ie today and yesterday with a problem and left messages at the ticket office line but haven't got any reply yet.

Make sure you're not copying and pasting a space after the password (depends on what email client you're using). Ditto for a new line. Best is just to try typing it (watching for 0 vs O, etc.) If only it was that simple. I've even been puting in spaces to try to make it work. Are you entering the p...

It's obvious from the video clip that the majority, if not all, of the punches had been thrown before DOC arrived and it's also pretty clear that he's not holding Cudmore down but trying to get in the way of the two. Painting a picture of DOC holding Cudmore's lower half so POC can start punching hi...

Jeez BAO, we're not that badly off at LH.

Honestly think Armitage was the full back of the tournie.
