From December 24 till June 25

OneF reckons he's being signed as Farrell/Easterby will be fast tracking Osbourne and Leinster will be without Henshaw, Ringrose and Osbourne for next seasons 6N period

OneF? I should know this.

Thanks

Coupd be. We’ll be homeless next season.

It's JB - short term contract next december Short term until Dec? So is he available for urc run in and champions cup semi?

Great week for the parish. Kicking off with "leave Rog alone", Sheehan gets a CC and then we sign Barrett.

Nice one

He's an IQ centre, they haven't even signed a centre yet for next season, sure they were looking.

THey're signing Tom Farrell from Connacht apparently

Gonna dissent from the agreed wisdom. We’re gettting to play in Dublin because of the “avarice” of EPCR in the first place. This ties in with Stephen Jones criticism in the times(he’s not the first). Home country advantage is a compromise EPCR make to cover themselves with attendances. We are I’d sa...

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...

I do but I'm not really the guy who could tell you. Like I don't think the media profile and "brand" are doing him any favours.

I'd say there will be a very good travelling support from Northampton for this one. The fact they had a home fixture in the Round of 16 and the Quarter Final and are in London for the final means they were always going to travel. The Croke Park curiosity factor will probably get a few more over who...

So the big question from that game is stick or twist on Osborne/ringer?

On the ferry to cherbourg Sent from my VOG-L09 using Tapatalk No one cares. He's had his 15 minutes. To be fair to him he was out on the pitch at the end and he shook hands with any of our players who walked past him - he actually had quite a long conversation with James and Nico Lowe No. No intent...

We went after Aungier as well apparently.

and i said it was rare not that it didnt happen..

its a huge shame we never tried to bring Beirne back, that was certainly an oversight.

I thought we were blocked?

Western spies maybe? Anyway big opportunity for Baird here (if he is) calling the lineout. I think we're gambling on an 80% lineout here to get us over the line. We make it up in maul defense and attack though. With the 2 tractors in the 2nd row we won't be as scared to attack their lineout either I...

Classic Munster move. Opens an avenue to sign another one next season.

Has there been anything else on where we play next season?
