Re: Are we allowed to talk about KINGSPAN

Moron Maze dream died a long time ago ask anyone who attended a European cup final in Istanbul

Getting there is fine getting home a nightmare no buses no taxis no trains a ten mile walk -- a real joy on a wet January night with sleet in your face.

Re: Liverpool FC

From what I have seen so far they (Liverpool ) seem to be playing a quicker game closer to the box than previously under Klopp. fewer punts into the box from the half way line and crossing the ball from much closer to the corner flag which at least gives players the ability to take a pass facing the...

team ? for Benetton

It is not so much about the selection identified to day ( i expect about 30 names ) it is about the combinations played during the 80 minutes -- front row -second row - back row -- half backs and centres -- the back three is not so much the combination but the positional play and skills. And it is t...

Re: Petrie departs…..

I said a long time ago it would be a "shotgun" report everybody to blame rather than one individual thus in the "blame game " nobody could be sued and the victims would be left frustrated . The only winners in a public inquiry are the legal profession because all the accused poin...

Re: Petrie departs…..

If only - there is then the strong possibility the renovation was discussed with the Tennants before it was carried out - and they approved it so are the tenants to blame ?

Re: Squad depth 2024/25

No as 13 outside centres though Osborne has also played 12 and full back and like Frawley may find he becomes a bench option rather than a slotted starter. Ulster now appear to becoming a side with a strong back row with options at 6 7 and 8 the secret is to find the right combination With Josh V D ...

Re: Squad depth 2024/25

jacob in my book is due a move into 13 . Firstly since his injury he has lost a bit of pace which is an asset for a wing , secondly as a back 3 player defending against a high ball is not his greatest skill , he tends to miss time his run and jump on occasions . But he does run straight and can time...

Re: Squad depth 2024/25

Zac looks more like a ball carrying 8 and or maybe a mobile second row The squad looks light weight but mobile and more suited to a fluid game where the line looks fine but may have problems in the set scrum against "boring " front rows a dangerous form of play seldom penalised or carded b...

This puts the cost of housing up . Thus what is basically a territorial dispute becomes racial or...

Re: Ireland 7s

Merv as a spectator it depends on the players and type of game both games can be one-sided and both can be boring . The somethings thing a sevens game has over 15 a side is the fact it only lasts 20 minutes . stoppages for injuries are fewer and the same goes for line outs and scrums like wise penal...
