Re: Jordi Barrett to sign for Leinster

Rob Baxter If Irish rugby, Leinster and the United Rugby Championship can get their house in order to allow them to invest in players, their programme and their coaches like they do, you have to say, ‘Fair play.’ “My response would be, ‘Let’s not try to say it’s not fair and limit Leinster, let’s l...

No it seems Leinster are treating this time down in SA very serious not giving anything away on who might be playing on Saturday.

Re: New CEO - Shane Nolan

In fairness Mick was big shoes to follow, but Shane is doing an amazing job, he has not stopped since getting Jacques over the line and he’s continuing on the great work that’s gone before him.

Re: Jordi Barrett to sign for Leinster

So, what’s Leinster’s annual budget? €8m ex CCs according to Donal Lenihan with an annual budget of 18/19m IIRC from about 2-3 years ago Sorry, so that's a total of €18- €19 Million, when all Central Contracts values are accounted for? The English Premiership wage cap is €6.4 Million- correct? And ...

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

I can’t see this match selling out or anything close to it. Based on the indicated ticket prices, I think it’ll be a similar attendance to the Leicester match. Maybe I’ve underestimated the Croke Park novelty, but I don’t think so. The opportunity to open up the game to new people and fill the stad...

Re: Jordi Barrett to sign for Leinster

Box Office move.. Munster fans only jealous that its not them. Some of the commentary around this signing is absolutely mad. Appreciate how frustrating it must be for fans of Ulster and Munster to see 2 big signings who are an add ons to an already very strong team. However, our resource base is wh...

Re: Jordi Barrett to sign for Leinster

Omg I haven’t enjoyed a day of watching the online meltdown that started first with Dan getting a CC and then to sink the dagger in announcing Jordie joining. God you’d swear Munster have not brought in any players ever. Jared Wright thinks we will use him on the wing. Certainly his height and build...

Re: Leinster Squad 23-24

I for one are thrilled we are back to bringing in box office as opposed to lower standard. Players we bring in should enhance our squad so our players can learn and improve from them. We have seen rocky, Isa, Thorne, Hines and Fardy all come and improve us. Lowe and JGP have continued that proud tra...

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

To be fair on McRae his side of it is that O’Gara attacked his testicles in the previous two contacts they had in that game. He was defenceless at the time. I have seen myself O’Gara doing stuff like taking a detour on the way back to rejoin play to stamp on an injured player so his story may have ...

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

Woke up this morning with no voice, what an atmosphere at the game and made me so proud to be part of this Leinster family. You always want to pick out players after a game like this but the simple fact is that in my eyes nearly every one of our lads had a minimum 8 out of ten performance. Delighted...
