No sign of Mark Hernan last weekend.. hopefully not injured again.

Looks like Martin Moloney is after picking up another injury while playing for the A's too btw.

Great to see that they are planning on the under 20s 6 nations going ahead. Thought it might not be on the cards in current climate

Interesting. Of the tiny bit I've seen of him he looks ready to step up. Wonder could we see him being thrown into the mix sooner rather than later.

rumoured that Noel Mc to Connacht as attack coach from next season with Carolan to take over as HC.

would be a big move and you'd wonder how many young leinster lads he could bring with him.

That would be a huge loss for Leinster and the Irish U.20s. It might suit Noel's career path but there will be a slot for him as Munster Head Coach at some point.

I thought Friend was doing ok, so maybe he’s been poached.

I’d see McNamara as having a role in Leinster at some point. But maybe this is a good stepping stone.
