Any chance that the woman who fed the all blacks that dodgy meal a couple of days before the 1995 world cup final is available to work in the kitchen in fota this week?

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

I missed last week's injury update. What's the story with Jimmy O'brien? Not suggesting he's dropped straight back into the 23, just wondering what his availability is, if at all. This is what was mentioned Jimmy O’Brien will be further assessed this week as he nears a return from a neck injury. Do...

Re: Leinster v Leicester - Sat 6 April, 20.00 RTE2

Ross is probably a better bet for managing the expected conditions but Harry must be disappointed given how well he's played recently

Re: The quickening 2024

Bulls last 5 URC games are all SA, including 4 in a row at home which emphasises the importance of tonight's win.
Finish in first place and we potentially have a final in Dublin, finish second and we potentially have a final in Pretoria.

Re: Leinster vs Bulls, March 29th, 7.35pm

Every time I see Russell play, I come away thinking that this guy will play for Ireland.
No different tonight.
Impact of the bench was brilliant, the number of significant plays by Sheehan in just 35 minutes on the pitch was incredible.

:clap: Anyone who thinks Ross is ahead of Harry right now, hasn't been paying attention IMO The pecking order could flip again, but people need to look back on Harry outplaying Pollard in Leinster's last major game (and Ross's less than stellar form since his return from injury), to understand why ...

I'll be backing stormers to beat LaR frankly .... stormers are in better form and have turned their home stadium into a bit of a fortress this season LAR, despite a narrow loss at the weekend, are back in form recently. Bookies have LAR as very slight favourites at 13/15 and Stormers at 6/5. Tough ...

Re: Cian Healy - Legend

An incredible record. He never gets the recognition he deserves but as someone said on this forum before :- that's probably exactly as he'd want it.

Billy Barry is an exciting player alright. Loved watching him play. But can he dance? This is the unanswered question. We need to know. According to the official Guinness fantasy rugby stats, Billy Billy didn't touch the ball once v England and only made one tackle - not very impressive stats for s...

Re: Zebre v Leinster Sat 23 March KO 7:35pm RTE2

Kelleher hasn't started a game since boxing day. He has had 113 minutes of international rugby in 5 games over the last 7 weeks and just 52 minutes of European Cup Rugby in January. I'd consider having him back now if allowed. I know there's IRFU rest protocols but he is underplayed if anything. Wh...

Re: Bath v Leinster - 15 March 19.45

Based on limited viewing (saw the last 10-15 minutes of each half), thought that the ref was dreadful - not biased, just looked completely out of his league.
