Any confirmed date yet???

Ah Jarhead, dont be too harsh on BOD, his scavaging work on the ground was excellent and turned over a few balls, also he set up Super Rob well for his try (I dont think he actually grounded the ball though). But agree with you about Disco Den and Shaggy.

I though Shaggy was poor tonight also. Pity D'Aarcy did not come on for him instead of BOD. Nearly threw away the league, but we got the 4 points just a pity that we did not pick up the bonus point. We really gotta put in two top class performances in the last two games and pick up bonus points. All...

The scene, Ronan O’Gara’s post match interview, a sudden hush falls over the bar. Supporters from both sides demand silence, as "our” Man of the Match speaks. If he was at the match, then did he leave early to get to the bor to watch the post match interviews, or ... as I suspect did he just pop in...

Yeah might be a little tricky... but might be able to find some sorta boarding house from this list

No doubt Flash will find us something up to his usual high standards like he did with the Redcar in Bath

I know the dates for the final game of the season has not been fixed yet, but what are your views on going over to the game. I think I will go over whatever date the game is on. There are plenty of options for getting there, either flying directly to Edinburgh, or to Glasgow, Aberdeen or Newcastle a...

Interesting to read Alan Gafney in the SIndo last weekend m I spoke to Michael and Knoxy afterwards and I felt for them. Their team had been wiped out in the front five and they know they'll need some new faces. Getting them is a different story. From my own experience in Ireland I remember how hard...

Tickets for the game in Rome were very easy to come by. There were actually more Irish than Italian fans.

Ryanair also fly to Rome, but they have not got their 07 winter flights on their website loaded yet. But no doubt they will jack up the prices for that weekend.

We got our flights for €268 p/p out Friday AM back Tuesday PM with Aer Lingus.

We went over in 2003 and stayed in Hotel Pomezia and cost about €70 for the room. Hotel was pretty ordinary, but hotels in Italy are, the rooms are small etc, but it was extreamly central.

Having been to all the 6 Nations away venues, Rome and Edinburgh are by far the two best destinations. But why oh why do the IRB insist (for the third time in a row) on having the two Ireland games there a week apart ...

I need more AFFFFluence!!!

Nice one Sarah! I just booked my flights to Roma!

A while ago, I had a conversation with a reporter from an Irish Tabloid. Anyway, we spoke about the media coverage which Munster and Leinster get. Some of his points were very interesting. He told me that his paper had done market research and had found that many of its Dublin readers associated the...

There was a time a few years ago when Munster were regarded by many as their ‘2ND Team’. Where the President of Newport RFC wrote an open letter to the press praising their fans. Where many ‘neutrals’ would look on with envy and respect at their displays in the H Cup, and many from Leinster, Ulster ...

Any word yet on a date for this game?

We, that is the current Mrs Mauler, me, & Father Abraham are driving back from Wexford for the game. Will drop in for a pint also. Hope to see y'all there.

Allez les Blues!

A number of years ago I switched clubs from Wanderers FC to Coolmine RFC. One of my first games was against Unidare RFC. I had never heard of them, let alone played against them. In the car driving over to their grounds (at the time they had no club house only some cabins) the 5 of us in the car wer...

This is a thread on the Leinster Site. This is what we have to put up with. If you open your mouth to support your team your seen as some sort of Neveaux Supporter who should be watching Soccer and probably will once the novelty wears off .... WTF

Allez les Blues!

Ballyman... I was refering to a post put up yesterday from a Dublin GAA website ... sorry for any confusion

After the Lions (British & Irish that is) came back from the tour to South Africa in 1997 the IRFU put up big posters around the city with pictures of Keith Wood, Eric Miller, Jeremy Davidson and Paul Wallace standing on a beach in their red Lions Jerseys, to try to piggyback on the result of th...

Now that the dust is beginning to settle and our emotions have calmed down a little. I think we need an inquest into where our support disappeared to. Last year we sold out Lansdowne Road against the Tigers. They brought over somewhere between five and ten thousand, thus leaving some forty thousand ...
