Re: B&I Lions 2013 Thread

Best was solid, one of his throws went a touch long but it was nicely recovered but all of the others flew true and he got about the pitch well. I thought Court looked good as well really got stuck in at the breakdown, didn't get much of an opportunity to disprove his scrummaging doubters but once a...

Re: Rory Best is NOT a big game player

Solid work against the Rebels today, looked a lot more confident.

Re: Rory Best is NOT a big game player

I believe the Inst captain and flanker Atkinson did the throwing for them leaving the hooker to help with the lifting

Re: Rory Best is NOT a big game player

Very much so, I think Rory needs to book a session or two with Ireland's sport psychologist.

Re: Rory Best is NOT a big game player

Poor fella, doesn't help that he was throwing into a complete mess of a lineout.

Re: IRELAND V CANADA

I suppose I'm just disappointed that in these essentially meaningless games we aren't blooding more new players, and giving more time to players with limited caps.

Re: IRELAND V CANADA

Well for one I don't think Boss should be starting, I would have beagle or Marmion on the pitch with the one left over on the bench.

Where exactly is Marmion? I want to see what he can do on the international stage!

Re: IRELAND V CANADA

Disappointingly conservative selection, I mean for dear sake it's Canada hardly a tier one nation!

Re: USA v Ireland

Let's just say this would not have been a good audition for Kiss as head coach, dreadful match. Could have done with Trimble, Henshaw was disappointing, Olding blended in well at international level(technically) though didn't quite have the outstanding debut we had hoped for, thought O'Mahony was pr...

Re: Ireland v USA & Canada plus U20s

That Ulster Scots "Kist o Wurds" program on Radio Ulster is the highlight of my week on Sundays, never fails to crack me up. Now if they were to start doing rugby commentary, my word I wouldn't be able to handle it! I think there was one time commentary for the football on the show and tha...

Decent match, disappointed Ireland couldn't make anything more in the second half but a good defensive effort.

Re: Donegal or Tyrone

Disappointed with the result but the boys were sloppy, still have hopes for the Sam with this Tyrone team but Donegal and Dublin are hard mountains to climb now!
