Re: Thank you Isa
My favorite was the try he scored in a Pro 12 final at the RDS against the Ospreys. He caught our kick off and raced untouched to score

2.08 mins in, what a try

The sport that unites Catholic, Protestant and dissenter has had its day of days. Pity anybody who can't enjoy it. Some day.

Re: Thank you Isa
in the search for a song..... with the 'brothers' theme so often alluded to in the past weeks and by Isa. how about ''Brothers in Arms'
Through these fields of destruction
Baptisms of fire
I've witnessed your suffering
As the battle raged higher
And though they did hurt me so bad
In the fear and alarm
You did not desert me
My brothers in arms....
It doesn't have to be sang as low or as softly as Knofler does; neither do you need the great guitar solo... but maybe. Then again; it's hard to get Molly Malone going never mind Brothers in Arms.

That’s a great song, but as you say- can’t see it being easy to get going.desperado wrote:in the search for a song..... with the 'brothers' theme so often alluded to in the past weeks and by Isa. how about ''Brothers in Arms'

You know I'm going to lose,
And gambling's for fools,
But that's the way I like it baby, I don't want to live FOREVER!

Apologies if this has been posted else where, but well worth a watch.

Re: Thank you Isa
Interesting comments from Isa recently. Says he keeps an eye out for players in his neck of the woods to recommend to Leinster but it’s not a formal thing.
Also talks about getting involved in coaching and maybe coaching Leinster one day. Says he could return to Dublin at some stage.
I’d post the link but I’m technologically challenged. Should be easy enough to find, in the Indo and not behind the paywall.
