Not a good sign for CK, unless he’s injured no point to rest him as we have 10 day turn around.

There was a chance !?

Who’s CK ?

Cian Kelleher.

The penalty for hidalgo cleyn towards the end is up there with some of the worst decisions I've seen. It should have been scrum racing for being held up first of all, and then he comes in so blatantly from the side that he should have been given a yellow card. What happens? Penalty Exeter. Shocking....

Anyone going to risk their reputation for all time by estimating the 23 for this? Having no reputation to risk, I'll guess (and obviously it's a total guess): Byrne, Kelleher, Bent, Maloney, Baird, Ruddock, VDF, Deegan, JGP, Ross Byrne, Lowe, Frawley, O'loughlin, Cian Kelleher, Keenan Dooley, Tracy...

I very much approve of this thread. Thanks OTT for reminding us. Koch is the best TH in the world. He played a huge role in winning a world cup final not long ago. Mako & JG are almost certainly the Lions loose head and hooker as well. It's incredibly disappointing to see us destroyed in the scrum, ...

Backrower8 turns up again just after a post from Wanderers FC...colour me shocked! Just a reminder to everyone that both posters are pilotman and various others, not even subtle about it :lol: Anyone that feels the need to create multiple anonymous profiles to debate with themselves and random stra...

The same could be said of Ruddock. You'd have to think both are prime candidates to leave in 2021. I really hope Deegan stays, he adds something different than the rest but needs to beef up. Ruddock is a prime candidate to leave I agree. I'd be gutted if Ruddock left. Much more so than Deegan perso...

This not being able to get eir on virgin thing is a pain in the hole.

Interesting team, would be surprised to see such a full strength 15, probably means a weaker side against Ulster. A lot of carrying in that pack. Doris at 6 would be a really interesting one and he may be looked at there for the HEC to get a bit more carry into the backrow. Only place I'd slightly ...

Dunno, I’m definitely not a fan of his emoji work, apart from that he’s a top class contributor to the site.

This place has become seriously tetchy of late. Mildly adds a huge amount to this site. I wish some others would give it a rest with the school bullshit.

I was rewatching the 09 final the other day, and I was reminded of how many incredible leaders we had in that group. There were just so many men you could imagine following into battle, as the cliche goes. I don't look at the current crop and see too many of the younger lads who fall into that categ...

So does Kearney and he's far more deserving as our only world class FB but it's not their decision to make unfortunately. Toner is lucky that Leo Cullen is more likely to fight for him given the previous remarks he made about him. Is he your grandson or something? He's one of the last players I'd f...

Well I'm convinced now anyway. I'm glad they took Carbery and I hope Munster poach more of our best players. I never realized until now what harm the good young players were doing.

When you didnt understand the question I went back over it to see if I could have been clearer. I could not. I think you understand the difference between "too many for your own good." and "too many for your own requirements". Is it not clear? If we kept all the quality players we produce we would ...

Has anyone mentioned that Frankie Sheahan is James Cronin's agent? https://m.independent.ie/business/new-career-move-was-frankie-sheahans-lineout-of-a-lifetime-30833521.html "As part of his business, Frankie also runs a sports management agency, representing professional rugby players and sports sta...

Just to say: Thanks for these posts sir. I love to read them. Thought it worth saying, in case you think the lack of replies equates to a lack of interest!

I feel like I must be taking the crazy pills, as I seem to be the only person who is suspicious. It's definitely weighted more in the direction of 'he was negligent as a pro sportsman' and 'rugby doesn't treat doping as its biggest issue' rather than a complicated conspiracy with a pharmacy risking...

INDO article by Fanning. Tis about Munsters latest drug scandal. Can someone C&P it and post it here. It's heartening that nobody here has an indo subscription, but I wish someone did so I could read a copy paste of the odd interesting article. Hopefully he thinks it's weird that a guy with coincid...

To be honest, it seems plausible to me and having read the report he's got a lot of evidence to back up his story. It's a big mistake from the pharmacy, because if you're giving the wrong drugs to a seriously ill and elderly patient rather than an absolute bull of a twenty-something you could have ...

Prednesol isn't an antibiotic, it's a steroid used with antibiotics that's taken in divided dosage. So they're usually 5mg tabs, you normally take 20-30mg first day and gradually reduce. An adult can take up to 100mg in a day or something like that. The pharmacy making a mistake has been admitted b...
