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

Anyone have an idea of what parts of the ground each category of ticket is in?

New Zealand probably wouldn't want him going there anyway. On Munster's recent form, he'd end up declaring for Australia after a few months.

If he helps us lift a European Cup in May 2025, it will be money incredibly well spent.
Fewer than 2,500 premium level tickets on Saturday to put that in perspective.

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

I love seeing Leo coming out asking the EPCR to "not rip people off" in the ticket pricing strategy, so stands to reason that Leinster Rugby will officially make some sort of submission to them in this regard too, and show the evidence in how they appropriately priced the LAR game to get ...

That's be a big improvement on last year's semi final when it was €75 for anywhere except the back of the upper tier.

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

This is the key paragraph IMO: "It’s hard to quantify line speed but one stat that I think is a good indicator is passes per defensive action (PPDA). According to a UK analyst Carrick Blake, Leinster pre-Nienaber were ranked 69th compared to being third now. All URC, Top 14, Premiership and Su...

Re: Croke Park to host major Leinster rugby games

KO confirmed for 5:30 on the Saturday. Hopefully EPCR don't totally f%~k it up and we get a huge crowd. Will season ticket holders get a prior window to general sale or is it everyone for themselves?? Kinda worrying when ur friends who have never gone to a game in years are texting you to see when ...

Re: Semi final Croke Park

If they (EPRC) are smart they will pick a price point that will sell out and make a little more than a full Aviva at high prices, with a full stadium for the telly. If they try to gouge on price, I think it will backfire and fans will stay away. That's a bank holiday weekend in Ireland & UK, so...

Toulouse are leaking more points than you'd expect but they still look very dangerous in attack.

Re: Semi final Croke Park

We had 46k at last year's semifinal with very high prices. The Croke Park novelty should add a few more though Northampton may be less of a draw than Toulouse. If EPRC think that they'll make more money by having lower prices than last year, we could have a really big crowd but I don't see 70,000 pe...

Two Munster lads in my office already over to me to tell me they are going to the match on Saturday, not to support Leinster, could be quite the few of them there. If I see any Red shirts on Saturday I'll remind them that they've got confused, their team are eliminated and you're not welcome unless...

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

I know people said it last year too, but this year the support has to be as loud as we can make it. There won't be the same sort of sh!t that comes with a European Final, every Leinster fan who wants to be there will be there. That's how you turn home advantage into something tangible - make noise....

Re: Munster 2023/2024 - Return of the Jedi????

Absolutely, their pack was world class and they had 9 Lions in the team and the imports (Howlett, Mafi and Tipoki) were all excellent players. Not many (if any) of today's team would get into that 2008 team. I'm sure they'd have someone ahead of Ian Dowling. Dowling is the only player I'd have a th...

or just aware that we are not the team we were last year and havent put back to back performances in all year.
Luckily we thought ahead and played badly this week so back to back performances won't be necessary.
