I don't post on mf.com - but I do creep there a lot - and Murray has come in for some criticism from many of his own provincial fans too. I reckon a few of them think he should play for Ireland for the same reason you think many Leinster fans think he shouldn't, but I was surprised by the level of honest criticism he has received from some quarters on that website.Golf Man wrote:1. I do think that there is a one eyed view of Murray out there with some Leinster fans - his form is nowhere near as bad as being made out and the complaints about him generally don't actually stand up (Racing metro game aside) - it has just become a default position to complain about Murray (Similar to the way a lot of Munster fans complain about Heaslip - I'm harsh on Heaslip because I think he should be taking over the POC/BOD mantle and for a variety of reasons he isn't quite at that level - I'd still have him as one of the first names on the teamsheet though
Is 10 months progression or a seriously long honeymoon period? irrespective of resources, is the best XV we can play that must worse than Wales' or England's? Or even Australia's? Should we be fighting off that Scotland team for 8th?Golf Man wrote:7. Suisse - maybe our current standing is just our natural position - btw we did progress since 2008, just have regressed - DK should have gone after the world cup but understandable that he didn't if you are actually objective about it
^ Whatever about that, can you please explain by what you mean here please: but understandable that he didn't if you are actually objective about it
I'm assuming the lunacy of, again, offering big contracts before the world cup and not having the cash/looking foolish to replace him immediately is the objective part? Or do we have to listen to "Ireland's best ever RWC" again? I'm genuinely curious as to how it is understandable he was not let go after the RWC.
