Did McGrath know that the time was up they had to bring a screen on to the pitch for the ref when they went to the tmo.

If Toner is back, I reckon we'll start Lowe and leave Fardy out.

Don't think ROL should lose his place either.

Toner said at the launch of his legends T-shirt he is fit for next week.

interesting news if true
Most of it is neither true nor interesting, and anything thats true isn't interesting because it has been discussed for a while at this stage and anything thats interesting simply isn't true.

If an article mentions...

SA Franchises
North American Franchises

...then you can be certain its b*%&!x. For example it says
The timing is crucial because Italy is due to become a full member of the Pro12 on 1 July but this is now looking increasingly unlikely. Instead, the Italians would have to pay just to participate
obviously unaware that the Italians used to pay to participate, but that stopped two or three years ago! Also the italian franchises have a broadcast deal with Discovery Network, through their Eurosport channels
Thanks Dave, that is also interesting if true :D

Re: Heineken Cup - Leinster V ASM Clermont Auvergne

After the way the scrum developed last week, coupled with the selection of VDM and the retention of Browne, it suggests to me that we're going after their scrum. Looking forward to the first hit :) Have stocked up on Soothers for the game, hope you're all resting your voices tonight :wink: Hopefull...

Re: All Ireland League - Thread

I've never heard Emmett Byrnes comments on him before. My one concern about him playing LH is his size he may lack the mobility expected of a LH in the modern game. He is currently nearly 2st heavier than Healy and our 3rd largest prop after Ross and Moore, That's a lot of extra bulk to be carrying ...

Re: All Ireland League - Thread

Mc Grath is still only 23 i think it would be foolish to completely write off his chances of playing TH. He has the frame to play TH and he is happy to play either side He was up against a decent front row last night in Sexton, Moore and O'Connell. I think he has to have a real go at making it as a ...

This had me screaming at the TV at the time. Firstly Hanks comes straight in off his feet trys to wrestle the ball from Ross. Ross holds on to it so Hanks makes unnecessary contact with the eye area ( which by the letter of the law is considered gouging) to encourage Ross to release it. Result Leins...
