Refereeing in the U19 world cup was very poor and these are the refs of the future. Especially the Austalia V France Match. Some atrocious decisions. Ref was shouting in English had no French definitely helped the Aussies. On another note the Australian lad that was spear tackled in that match. anyo...

I presume that was Horgans try against England. Hickeys try in Toulose was pretty good. Player of ther year well deserved

Jouranlism in this country in general has gotten very sloppy. Good example was that Plane from Iberian Airlines that had difficulties yesterday. According to the papers there was a raging fire in the cockpit and they were lucky to land and survive. Gerry Ryan was interviewing a passenger this mornin...

Harry P voice of reason.
You summed it up rugby fan first.

Limerick Post dreadful stuff. It's all getting so depressing. I'm confused now does this mean I can't wear chinos or shades to a match unless I follow Leinster. Why can't I wear sunglasses on a sunny day?. Is there a list of approved apparel and brand of sunglasses I can wear ?. Will the Munster bra...

I think the issue is with people who jump on and off the bandwagon at will - get tickets for the knock-out stages every year and are invisible the rest of the season. I don't think anyone has a problem with people who jump on the bandwagon - be it Leinster or Munster's - and stay there. As has been...

I soldier on and hope for a return to the old days. In a perverse way you would like to see them go through a bad spell just to see if this crowd would hang around I don't think so. Let me see if I understand you Leclerc, you'd like Munster to go through a bad spell so you could go back to the good...

Well said KTF. I am a Munster fan and mostly agree with what you say maybe the TV thing is overblown but apart from that spot on. I am a Munster Fan I say it again because it now means nothing. I love Rugby has more resonance. A huge amount of people who follow Munster and call themselves Munster Fa...

I never remember saying after senior cup matches oh lets go to Dolans or know people who did. Only heard of it being a rugby pub since the Munster thing took off. There was rugby before Munster you know. Folks Charlie ST Georges avoid the pub was sold a few years ago and is no longer a place to go. ...

Willie Sextons is a fine pub. Where ye should feel at home. Dolans is full of rabble and have recently jumped on the Munster bandwagon. Willies proper rugby pub.

Hogan is an excellent player. Ye have done well there.

Lazy Jouranlism is a kind description. I was in the East Lower stand near the 22 and there were a good few Leinster fans nearby. They were fairly quite during the game but in fairness they stayed right to the end. Even when the fans were having a singalong apres match. We have been at the butt end o...

Hogan and Keogh will be very good additions they are both class players. They aren't overly aggressive or in any way talismanic but will do a job. But ye have a diamond in Heaslip he really fronted up on Sunday and did himself a lot of good. Games like that will only make him better. Build the Pack ...

Pucherello will do well he is a good replacement for Horan. Hopefully he is disciplined and doesn't do anything silly. But good chance of a flare up with him at the heart of it.

And so after 3 weeks waiting and baiting the teams have been announced and battle will be joined on Sunday at 3pm. Now that the formalities of the team announcements have been made I feel that all the pre-amble is over. We are in the short gap before the main course. And you know what – looking at t...

All the better so jeezer should make it all the more enjoyable. But as far as I know yer equivalent in the MSC are in that stand and they well make a lot of noise. Hopefully it will be a day full of noise and colour and not hijacked by coporate tossers. Not much use in this office today concentrati...

Now there is a true Ligind . One player I would love to see wearing a Munster Jersey. Saw him play for Munster against Leinster few years ago in Dooradoyle few hundred at the match how times have changed. he was a one man wrecking machine. Met him in a pub that night and he was a very nice genuine b...

MMM on mature reflection maybe he did but the essence was for Leinster i feel. Nice one jeezer it's a love fest between Ward and Gleeson. Good to see him so enthused and excited about the game though.

Could explain the shortage of tickets though if she was at the game. They would have to sacrifice a lot of seats and terrace space to get her in and out. She is a bit misinformed not that many Limerick native players on the current Munster team.

Well they should offer him a good deal and put the cards on his table. Make him decide one way or the other . The lad isn't lacking self believe anyway if he hopes to break into the All Blacks.
