Re: Leinster Squad 23-24

That's terrible news and is the opposite of the Leinster Way. Signing Snyman is bad enough, this compounds it. He’s the reason Ireland lost to NZ. Clutch player who always performs well on the biggest stage. He’s the type of player that would make the difference between us winning or losing a final...

Re: Leinster v Northampton Saints - EPCR Semi-Final Croke Park 4th May

It the pricing is anywhere near as cheap it'll be v surprising. EPCR have no clue, on how to get the crowds in balanced with making a reasonable amount.

Re: Rumour Mill

I do love this signing, from the perspective that whatever way you want to spin it, he's been one of the best players in the world for the past couple of seasons and brings a winning mentality into our squad, plus huge versatility. It is a little baffling from a fit perspective given we still need ...

Re: Rumour Mill

Barrett is a FB isn’t he? Don’t really understand why we’ve signed him as we have Keenan, Frawley and JOB who can play FB and Wing. Would have thought that we have a more pressing need at THP in the light of Alalatoa’s impending departure. Jordi is the ultimate unity player: full back, centre, out ...

Re: Leinster v La Rochelle Saturday 13th April 2024 at 5.30pm RTE2

Gotta laugh at all the whinging about RoG being booed. Make no mistake, this is nothing more than pandering to Munster fans, especially people from Cork. Leinster players booed often in TP down the years. Leinster players given nicknames like Daverage and Kneeslip. Leinster referred to as Ladyboys....

Re: Leinster v Northampton Saints - EPCR Semi-Final Croke Park 4th May

EPCR instruct on pricing and allocate tickets to each Club for sale / distribution. Historically, it has been very difficult for Leinster to influence EPCR in pricing policy. Historically the EPRC have been shite at almost everything to do with this competition. But they are particularly venal, opp...

Re: Croke Park to host major Leinster rugby games

I prefer to ignore everything Jones says normally. Last year he gave out loads about us getting a "home" final. We actually got the same allocation as LaR and the final was sold out before we knew we were in it. The fact that the previous final was in the south of France was never an issu...

Re: Leinster v La Rochelle Saturday 13th April 2024 at 5.30pm RTE2

Absolutely, who can forget Ireland's grand slam triumph of 2009, coached as they were by the much loved Declan Kidney. Yes- that’s fair enough: sarcasm aside, of course. I will say Kidney was never anything as unpopular with Leinster fans as ROG. The dislike- don’t like using “hate”, is fairly visc...

Re: Leinster v La Rochelle Saturday 13th April 2024 at 5.30pm RTE2

I don't really buy this idea of ROG as a cheque book coach. He joins La Rochelle ahead of the 2019-20 season with Jonno Gibes as his Director of Rugby. Then he becomes top dog for the 2021-22 season. He certainly hasn't signed most of their best players. Botia and Atonio are over a decade at La Roc...

Do you think that ROGs antics and his standing with of Leinsters fans (and you would assume players) will hurt any future chances of being a future Irish coach? Yes, hopefully it does. There's nothing to suggest he would do well at international level where a big cheque book is no use and you'd nee...
