Re: H Cup Final 2024 London
The FA has confirmed that the FA Cup Final between Manchester United and Manchester City will take place at 3pm on 25 May. It will be shown live on BBC and ITV. The decision (presumably by BT/TNT and EPCR) to schedule the kick off time for the Investec Cup Final for 14:45 on the same day looks moron...

Re: Leinster move to Aviva Stadium for 24/25
When Leinster played a few games at the RDS (2005/06, maybe) it was only supposed to be temporary but they soon outgrew Donnybrook. In those days it was pie in the sky stuff to think Leinster could sell out the RDS for regular season league games. But Leinster ended up moving there (and they were st...

Re: Leinster move to Aviva Stadium for 24/25
Because Aviva will be Leinster's home ground, I presume it can't be used as a "neutral" ground for a hypothetical European Cup semi final or bumped-up quarter final? Those would be held at Croke Park?

Re: Rumour Mill
Man City currently have 9 senior players out on loan I see, my point there is refuted. However are there many cases of actual loans happening in Irish rugby or rugby in general? The talk is generally for permanent moves to another province to further their career. Loans is very rare in Irish rugby....

Re: Leinster vs Benetton, Feb 17th, 2024
We seemingly have Ed Byrne, Milne, Boyle and McCarthy available. Who gets the #1 and #17 jersey should tell quite a bit. Will be interesting in particular if Milne gets the nod. If not, could be an indication he's off. I dunno, with that many available it could mean very little either way. Leinster...

Re: A whiff of Cordite
Done. Never knew it was even an option, as they don't mention it and you have to go looking on Spotify. Such a contrast with the grifters from other provinces.

Speaking of selling out games, is there any indication as to when tickets for this game will be on sale?

Re: Leicester v Leinster Sat 20th 3.15 TNT Sports
I had to jump on again because as someone who still reads the site it gets on my wick that the same poster who was responsible for all these comments (last one stands out in particular given the Molony chat) constantly calls out other fans for their lack of respect towards players.

Re: RG Snyman to move to Leinster
Article in The Irish Times about Peter O'Mahony becoming a free agent. While we are in the mood for trolling our Southern cousins, this would be an amazing signing. We don't particularly need him, we may not even want him, but the meltdown would be incredible. "With the money freed up by Caelan...

Re: Darcy: Schools system seems to be coaching the flair out of Leinster’s backs
D'Arcy is an interesting one. He came through just as the provinces went pro and was in this special generation of pros who only had to push out amateurs. He was around a long time. He was a super player and is a good pundit, I'd take him seriously. If I disagree I'd want to check first. The game h...

Re: Darcy: Schools system seems to be coaching the flair out of Leinster’s backs
Schools rugby teams play risk-averse rugby for the most part, at least in cup matches. It’s knockout rugby and focusing on eliminating errors and putting pressure on the opposition is usually unfortunately the best way to increase your chances of winning. Offloads are actively discouraged by most t...

That's kind. Perhaps "Enjoyed enough legacy from the Schmidt era to win the Pro 14, before missing the playoffs for the first and, so far, only time in our history. Swiftly replaced."MylesNaGapoleen wrote: ↑January 5th, 2024, 3:49 pm
