I was under the impression that sewing mailbags was how recreation time was spent in St. Declans

He's been playing on the wing in our H Cup games this season, so has not been quite as involved in general play as he was at 15 last season while R Kearney was injured.

The IRFU had a very valid point in not re-signing him, he would just have turned 35 in November after returning home from the RWC and then he possibly would have been involved in the Scotland 6N team. I know that he subsequently retired from International rugby after the RWC, but perhaps it was part...

We will have four tough internationals in a row. Will Dekko now finally have to rotate his squad and really use his bench to it's maximum? Or will he flog the same 15 to death? What would you do? Deccie will do the latter I was watching Shaggy on RTE this afternoon and it was put to him about Irela...

Rory Best used to get it when he started a game ahead of Flannery. Some of the abuse he used to get at home games was disgusting. A pathetic element that are angry about something in their life. It's been happening for quite a while, I was at "the foot & mouth" postponed game in 2001 ...

Congrats Macman15 - hope his arrival won't stop you getting a few rounds of golf in - GOM & I have a fiver to win back!!!

Even playing two countries on one day in Lansdowne, the Used Car Salesmen still won't be able to fill it.

Here's a left field one for a short term deal: Bob Casey! One of our own and can't remember him playing for LI (certainly in the HEC) this season. He's a big unit and smart with it. It would be a sentimental favourite for those of us who remember him and a fitting coda for a prodigal son. Should be...

Reported on Newstalk that Leo Cullen is out for up to 8 weeks with ops required on both Achilles tendons. They said this is in the Star this morning.

There should be more of this sorta thing - or better still ... just ban that joke of a past time and be done with it. Nice one Nigel!!!

I disagree, I loved 'the final through the scrums' bit. Not sure what people were expecting from it, but I enjoyed it. Yeah, it was a good idea to do the final through the scrums. However, what I was hoping the book migh reveal was some insight into the dressing room, the characters, the personalit...

It was interesting watching the Ulster v Munster match on RTE last night. Donal Leinhan seemed to share the views of most of the posters on here that it would not be a good thing for Munster / Leinster / Ulster. However, Frankie Sheehan seemed far more positive. Even going so far as to suggest that ...

This weekend see's John Hayes play his last game for Munster. He was one of the generation of Irish players who helped make our sport into what it is today. Enjoy your retirement Bull and thanks for all those memories in the Green of Ireland, Red of Munster and Black and Blue of Shannon. :clap: :cla...

Didn't see D'Arcy being benched, but like the look of the team. What's going on with Healy though? Dunno. Looked in great form when he came on last week and was sure he'd start this week. Maybe he's carrying some small knock we don't know about. He tweeted yesterday evening that he'd had a shite da...

England fly-half Jonny Wilkinson has retired from international rugby union. The 32-year-old won 91 England caps, kicked the winning drop-goal in the 2003 World Cup final and played six Tests for the British and Irish Lions. "It fills me with great sadness, but I know I have been blessed in so ...

So what's your preferred route and what are the oddest rules you've come up with ? Long time ago, we used to organise a pub crawl called The Crawl from Grace, where...

Nil all after 42mins ... I played in a nil all once, never had as many scrums in one game. Really thought they were a thing of the past.
