Re: Ex-Leinster players

Carr didnt see a whole lot of ball and shipped a pretty nasty tackle as well, he came back on later so I'd say he was fine. Keatley was not named in the replacements, neither was cronin. hearty wasnt great but to be fair it was his first match in ages. Dunne had a very good first half, we didnt see ...

Gotta be putting away Dragons, Glasgow, Edinburgh and trying to pick up a couple of derby results and the odd win against the bigger Welsh teams. Do that and they're in the frame for the HEC. Doubt that. Leinster and Munster will almost certainly be finishing above Connacht this season, while Ulste...

Re: Connacht v Dragons

Conor McPhillips will become the eighth player to make 100 appearances for Connacht when he faces the Dragons in Friday's Magners League game in Galway. The 26-year-old scrum-half is Connacht's highest try scorer of all time with 29 touchdowns. 29 tries in 100 games! That's nearly 1 in every 3! Pla...

It's as clear as day that try is Trimble's fault. He's in position and no try. simple as. Easterby clearly wouldn't have a hope of making it back to stop that. That would be true save for two errorsin what you say. Trimble is called into the 10 channel, in what is clearly a prearranged alignment, t...

Trimble was NOT to blame for the first try. A set move was called on an Irish scrum which required Trimble to vacate his wing position and come inside.This he did after notifying Easterby that he was going inside.Reddan put the ball in and immediately Wallace and Leamy popped up to see what was goi...

Watched the game again last night and the knock on at the base of the ruck with a couple of minutes to go was caused by Jamie Heaslip. It was the most delicate of little flicks of the finger just as Keane is taking the ball out. He then whipped his hand back inside the ruck so the ref couldn't see ...

I think Sunday is aware of that, just stating that this thing is normal to backs as opposed to forwards as they do it better.
