Leinster A 2014-2015

[Grumpy Old Man]

3-3 at HT. Leinster suffering in the scrum & shipping. Lot of injuries. 10, 12 & 13 all off.

[Blue not red blood]

How is Thornberry getting on against DOC ?
He was in 3rd class in Holly Park when DOC was palying for ireland!! Weird or what

[limecat]

Finished 8 18 with Leinster getting a good try with 5 to go. Munster marched us backwards at scrumtime at will. Lineout struggled as well.

[goreyguy]

not really surprising about the scrum, McCarthy isn't any good and Heffernan is 19 and only really playing TH a year and a bit. Bench was another 18 & 19 year old.

[All Blacks nil]

How did the props go?

Not a great day for them I think but they are young and will get better, with the injuries to the senior team and a few more to the A team backs and props are going to be in short supply next weeks B&I Cup selection will be interesting

[Not_Today]

Great win for Munster A in Donnybrook

Great win for Munster A in Donnybrook

considering the experience levels any other result would have been embarrassing

[cormac]

Our opponents next Saturday, Plymouth Albion, were on SKY yesterday. They were hammered 61-16 by London Scottish and have lost all five of their league matches so far.

did Stewart Maguire ex of this parish get on?

[Armchair]

Was interesting that McCarthy the prop replaced Strauss as hooker instead of Moran who was reserve on the bench, wonder will Byrne drop down or stay with seniors and both him and Strauss get half each or will it be same again. Front row and half backs will be interesting

[johng]

Tom Denton and Sean McCarthy are the only ones shaving in that team.

Mick McGrath played for them I think. And a few other Irish in the last few years. I'd say they would be a tough enough away fixture.

[Donny B.]

Tom Denton and Sean McCarthy are the only ones shaving in that team.

Are you sure?

Yay!!

[Armchair]

Both hookers are converts from props not sure we will be throwing to the back to often

[Pendragon]

Plymouth are useless, we could put out the U20's and beat them. They won't even put out their first team. Great game for blooding some young players.

[carlow man]

Ben Marshall must have blown his chance with moc then. Involved in the first team squad and started during pre season. Then starts in the league and now finds himself overtaken by van den flier and not even make the bench. Thought he did well at start of the season but obviously our chosen one thinks differently already! Also where is mclaughlin?????
