It seems Leo wanted to fly the likes of Sexton and SOB out to South Africa for their R4 game v the Cheetahs, but aren't allowed to as it is the 2nd part of their double header and you are only allowed to use guys who fly out in the original touring squad for the 1st game.

Actually quite a good idea that if everyone just has a limited squad for the 2 matches and the SA teams the same for here, helps everyone run on a similar budget for the trips.

I hate Mexico more than ever. :red:
NEVER MOVE ON. Years on, I cannot ever watch Ireland with anything but indifference, I continue to wish for the imminent death of Donal Spring, the FIRFUC's executioner of Wee Paddy & Wee Stu, and I hate the FIRFUCs with undiminished passion.

I thought that nothing could be worse than Leinster's "unicorn jizz" shirt from a few years ago but I have clearly underestimated how determined Canterbury and Leinster are to go one better.

GAA miles ahead on club gear sales. AIL clubs could learn a lot. Not Banbridge, they're minted.

Sure the GAA is the "heart of the community" for a lot of places so they will throw all their money into it, can never see club rugby getting that much support, we are all too tight with are wallets :lol:

Incredibly weak looking.

Nobody stands out from 9-15. Front row is poor and the second row is distinctly average. Good backrow.

A lot of guys to return/some players injured. They head down to South Africa for their 2 games in R3 and R4. The Lions players who are fit will probably return in R5.
