It's usually out in July I think.
it varies year to year.

last year it was May which was unusually early.
The season finished early last year maybe that was why?

Re: Leicester v Leinster Sat 20th 3.15 TNT Sports

I'm quite worried about this game being honest. We were the better side in January, but it was closer than the final score IMO. If we're down James Ryan and Hugo Keenan then we're hugely weakened. They've had some guys who will have good memories of playing against our players from Twickenham too l...

Re: Rumour Mill

When Tupou was fully fit, the Wallabies scrum was generally rock solid. A huge unit/athlete and an abrasive ball carrier as well. A step up from Big Mike realistically. He is a very good player and is still only 27/28. I think it's a good bit of business, have him and Snyman hopefully as 'finishers...

Re: Rumour Mill

NO interest in Tupou tbh. He's obviously a good player but at that price and with his injury profile just think he's too much risk especially with Snymans profile. We're due a dud NIQ soon

Re: England v Ireland Saturday 9th March 2024 4.45pmTwickenham

The strategy of kicking the ball to relieve territorial pressure was correct. The tactical choice of the method, of box kicking, to implement the strategy was not. The execution of the tactic was awful. I agree. I don't understand why our defence isn't getting any criticism in this matter either. A...

Re: Rumour Mill

If he is leaving we should be seeing less of him in games like Cardiff or Treviso? And I get the practicalities of playing him in those games, we played Jenkins in both too, but surely there's a start there somewhere for Deeny. NExt game is Zebre.......

Re: England v Ireland Saturday 9th March 2024 4.45pmTwickenham

I think the rider that Keenan has to come though today's session is a big one, so fingers crossed and let's see. If he does make it and is selected I think a 5/3 split on the bench makes more sense. On the other hand if he doesn't make it a Frawley is selected at 15 then I think Farrell will go for...

Re: A New Era 2023/24 season and beyond: Front Row

On the other side, it’s impressive to see Clarkson’s improvement. The Leinster and Ireland coaches were clearly convinced he was worth backing, but the doubters could have been forgiven. We still need to replace Mike though. An announcement on that front would be welcome. He's far more involved aro...

Re: Cardiff Away, March 2nd

It worked out well for us in that it burned more clock off Larmour's sin bin and we ended up getting a try closer to the sticks, with Ross kicking an easier conversion than the one he had earlier missed. But it was a farcical situation. Adamson makes so many bad decisions in games, as does Craig Ad...

Re: Cardiff Away, March 2nd

Still don’t understand what happened with our disallowed try. 1) Clarkson gets over the line with the ball and Adamson signals for a try. 2) Adamson decides to go to the TMO for confirmation and states that his on-field decision is try. 3) Could be my eyesight but my memory is that none of the repl...

Re: Cardiff Away, March 2nd

it shouldnt be really hard, thats the issue. it shouldnt take an injury layoff to McGrath for younger 9s to get a start. It is though. Like McGrath shouldn’t be seen as a leader? He shouldn’t be adapting to nienabers defense better than most of the 9s(probably). The other 9s should take their 8 wee...
