Re: Leinster v Ulster Saturday Nov 27th 8pm KO

That was some patient performance. Leinster were given no time or space to play their usual recycling game. Fair play to Dan et al.

Re: United Rugby Championship

Covid is going to be with us. Vaccines are great in the medium term, but herd immunity is what will save this upstart little race of ours.

That was my thinking too.
With Jack at 100% we're good at loosehead. Without him nope! Eric, Andrew and Callum are still no. 2, 3 & 4 level. None are big game ready.

Re: Autumn International squad

In theory (and traditionaly) you can't sub a player while the ball is in play. At a penalty the ball is still in play. Shirley it's the opposite of that - you can only sub a player when the ball is dead. Semantics, possibly, but at a penalty the ball is dead - the clock might still be running, but ...
