Re: EPCR SEMI-FINAL V CLERMONT

VDF and Cronin on early in second half, Leavy has been poor, Strauss has been awful.

Re: Munster 2016-2017

Saracens by miles the better team, and if we do beat Clermont today and make the final, we will have to play a completely different game than Munster did. Yesterday was a textbook example of how not to play a team like Saracens - boxkick after box kick, first receiver running into a wall of black sh...

Re: The looking forward to the Lions Tour thread

And then I see the bilge that Luke Fitz spouts on Twitter and in his Indo podcasts about the Lions as the "ultimate accolade" Exactly. What would Luke know anyway. its not as if he actually played the game professionally or anything. Oh dear, of course silly me, only people who have playe...

Re: The looking forward to the Lions Tour thread

Haven't been overly impressed with Liam Williams this season. Thought he was outstanding last season but I think there's a big question mark over Wales/the Welsh players now. Thought they were terrible in the last month and I wouldn't be confident of them having a good 6N, which will obviously have...

Re: The looking forward to the Lions Tour thread

See no less than Graham Henry has described the tour itinerary as "suicidal". I don't care what some of the players say about the Lions being the ultimate accolade or similar such bullsh1t, it would benefit Ireland far more if as few Irish are chosen. PlAyers with injury records like Sexto...

Re: Connacht v Leinster Sat 7:35pm 15.04.17 - TG4

Dave going off injured probably rules him out for next week The look on his face suggested longer. They had the splint out. Got his ankle totally turned in an off the ball tackle by a man on the ground. Devastating for him after his hard work to get back. And of course there was the barely hidden p...

Re: Munster 2016-2017

Injuries stacking up. Stander though suggested he'll be ok, but if Murray, Williams, Scannell and Sweetnam are out then a big problem.

Re: Connacht 2016/17

Cardiff getting 5pts off the hairsprays not good for Connacht in the race for the playoff for the ERC next year. Given that we almost certainly have a home semi, wouldn't be that put out if we did them a favour tonight

Re: Ulster 2015/16

Piutau was a disgrace, you can excuse somebody having a bad game but he acted like he didn't give a toss. He could have easily tracked back after buying POM's dummy if he bothered getting his ass in gear. Attitude stinks and Kiss shield have hauled off way earlier. Don't know if Kiss has the sort of...

Re: Ospreys v Leinster Sat 3pm - Live on Sky

Think Ospreys made mistake giving that kick to a guy who got a bang on the head not long before, Sam Davies is a very good goal kicker too. Still will take the 4 pts

Headless stuff right now, but surprise surprise Lacey has been awful. If we lose this even with a bp, it's points lost

Wow Bilbao would be nice, all those lovely tapas and wine. Newcastle though is a bit of a dump - not the sorry of place you'd think off for a weekend break

Re: EPCR SEMI-FINAL V CLERMONT OR TOULON

For what it's worth, bookies offering +4 spread for Leinster, -4 for Clermont. Other semi too close for Paddy Power to call, Muster on +1 spread, Orcs on -1

Re: Leinster v Wasps Aviva Stadium 1st April KO 3.15 BT

From the match report it sounds like Wasps were as ropey defensively as we were at the weekend. They have Launchbury, Hughes and Daly to come back into their squad. Sounds like le Roux is doubtful after picking up a concussion in the incident that led to the Worcester red card. Yep didn't see Wasps...

Re: Ireland v. England

Would drop Heaslip and O'Brien. We've too much talent in the backrow to tolerate such shitty performances from them both. Would bring in O'Mahony and Leavy ahead of van der Flier. Heaslip and O'Brien can come back at some stage but they need to learn that playing shite has consequences. In particul...
