I think Sheahan is fine as long as he's not commenting on Ireland or Munster. The fact he is actually the agent/manager of several of the Munster players should preclude him from commenting on their games, on the grounds of common f%~king sense. He also covers lots of Leinster players too. I was to...

Just watched Prime Time where the interviewed each candidate http://www.rte.ie/player/#v=1114547 Here is my take on them Gay Mitchell - came across badly as he got caught up in the death penalty stuff as to why he picked a double murderer to campaign for. Michael D. Higgens - Never been a fan but I ...

Actually I think Frankie Sheehan has improved during the world cup, don't get me wrong he's not someone I'd actively seek to have on a pannel I just think he's gotten a little better. Cant take to Sheehan at all. When it talks a player up I think he is his agent and if he talks someone down I think...

Poxy weather. Too hot for Dog Mushing.

Roll on the snow in October.

Really want that jersey. Damn player issue only! The Leinster Store in Donnybrook sold them and had some left up until late last season if I remember rightly. Give them a call and see if they have any left. Your memory is leading you astray i'm afraid Ian, It was never available for sale, purely pl...

My own 2 cents With the Haka being a Maori War Dance it should only be performed by full blooded Maori players. Also if the Maori heritage is so important to them why do the New Zealand team play as New Zealand and not as Aotearoa. Hypocritical in my view. As others have said I think it is all marke...

My 3 wishes for the game (and let the result pan out as it falls): 1) No kicking the ball in the redzone. None. Grubbers, chips, crossfield high balls, NONE. 2) We align properly on quick ball and flood the channel with support. 3) We hit the rucks hard and fast with good body position. We don't ne...

I have no kids so have nothing to back this up but....... Keep them warm. If they are cold you have no hope of getting them interested. I have seen a family that bring a foil backed picnic blanket for the seats. Keeps them warm and stops any draughts. They bring 2 when it is really cold for over th...

I am just back from Doolin last week. Great spot and not too far from Ennis. Plenty to see and do. If weather is bad go visit the caves. I spent a night in Gus O'Connors in Doolin. Food was great and people beside me saud Guinness was good and music was good too. Also has photos of trad musicians an...

For those with open fires in their homes I have one of these and use it regularly - I have been making and storing the logs for the winter. I make mine out of newspaper, envelopes, letters and office type paper. I try not to use magazines etc as they are shiny and dont adsorb the water well and can ...

My 2 cents. I as a Leinster Supporter would like to see either someone punished for racism or an apology from the complainant. I believe this middle ground option leaves both sides open to accusations and that is no good for Leinster. If racism was proved I would like to see Leinster react very stro...

Anyone any advice or recommendations for bets for the World Cup. Just saw Paddy Power have France at 7/1 to beat New Zealand in the group stages. Seems like it could be a cheeky bet in a 2 horse race. Also Paddy Power has Elimination Specials http://www.paddypower.com/bet/rugby-union/world-cup-2011?...

I am a little surprised that Tommy Bowe is in the squad. From what I have seen he has not played any rugby since May 14th so he is not being picked on form but reputation. I know he is a great player and finisher but how do the Management know he will regain his form during the World Cup. Luke was i...
