Very disappointed that Harry is benched.

Meh. I’d have picked Harry but perhaps they want a more consistent kicker and better defender in wind that will make this an arm wrestle.
Strong team. Looking forward to it.

Ah good shout. tigerburnie still around? it's starting at garden of remembrance, just off O'Connell street 2-3pm saturday. I think it's the "Ireland is full" mob....if you mention they are like the National Front or British First, they should get the gist. they had the same stuff in engla...

I disagree with you purely because JN was asked this exact question at the start of the season and his response was you could have 100% tackle success and let in 4 tries which would make that stat redundant. All he cares about in defensive stats is the score line and we at present are keeping teams...

Apologies for going slightly off topic here but does anyone know the best spot for watching the game in Amsterdam? Sent from my SM-S911B using Tapatalk It's fairly mundane Irish Bar, but O'Reillys on Dam Square always shows the match and will have a decent crowd in. Decent crowd? https://www.google...

Penalty only is fair there I think.

Ross was right to make it an issue though. He did get kicked while in possession.

Last few minutes are ones for the neutral!

And as I type that, more filth.

Should be a red unfortunately. Brave but stupid. Didn’t see it initially Yellow about right. It was a cheap shot. He was never going to get to him and wanted to leave one on him. Should have been red. Nonsense. It should have been red. But he want in control and that’s why he sparked himself out. L...

Absolutely! I’m only complaining because I care!

Cracking try. We have to win by playing good rugby. VdF seatbelt tackled into the post. Play on. Should have restarted with a penalty. But high tackles on Leinster players are okay tonight it seems. Also: don’t compete in the air. A Bulls player will always be interfering with your arm. Not worth it.

Filth

Next was worse.

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 he's st...

Don't think Henshaw has been elite since the Lions tour until the 6N to be honest but that's right now so it's fine. Delighted to see Osbourne. Would be a big call to drop any of the four back rows for Deegan but I could see benefits in it. I thought Doris looked a bit jaded but I do remember lookin...

He'd lose his invisibility cloak if he signed to us. Should have been whistled off the park and marched out of the grounds at the 6N.

Good point. He also did a countdown after "use it" a couple of times. Nice to see

Since 3 days ago, Refs have a new protocol (i.e. it came in on the 20th)

A most welcome development. Should speed up the game and clip the legs of the caterpillar

Centipede.

If he has torn his bicep (and all imagery suggests he has done significant damage to it having underwent surgery already), I'd be more curious as to whether Ryan will play again this season as opposed to in 3 weeks. A torn bicep is a recovery time of months as opposed to weeks. Ryan or Keenan? Ryan...

At least say "not the good one".

Thought he were great. Was talking to a friend of mine and he mentioned that the foreign rugby press are a lot more complimentary of Crowley than our own press which seems true (at least around here). Silverware should always be celebrated. The team is in a state of change but still keeping high st...
