Re: Heineken/Challenge Cup Format 23/24

Ronan O’Gara has been hit with a one-week ban which will limit his involvement in La Rochelle’s crunch Champions Cup opener against Leinster on Sunday. The former Munster and Ireland out-half’s latest brush with the French disciplinary chiefs comes after he made comments to the fourth official in th...

"A total of 37 projects were successful in 2020 with a promise of €86m. Following talks with the government a further €37m has been allocated to 27 of the applicants. The Sportsground redevelopment will receive €20m in funding rather than the initial €10m grant, although the extra grant had alr...

Very black beard and brows but the hair, a look that Rod Stewart must have sported at some point, is at the salt and pepper stage.
The Daily Mail? Hope it was being used in a toilet block.

Re: URC: Ulster Rugby v Edinburgh Rugby Sat 2nd Dec 17:15

“The answer lies in going away and training at a level that you expect the highest standards,” he said of his side’s uneven seven-game stretch to start the season. “Training is easier than a match in the physical sense of it, not in the speed sense of it, but in the physical sense. We need to improv...

Re: URC: Ulster Rugby v Edinburgh Rugby Sat 2nd Dec 17:15

Great to see McNabney get another start and Izzy on the bench, pretty happy with that considering the injuries, although I'd have had Sheridan over Rea but this does keep him fresh. No excuse Sheridan not in side unless injured. Rea is a step down Is he saving Greg too? Unless he's keeping Sheridan...

Re: Scrums. What are they for?

Raynal finished his lively interview by answering the question about the rugby law that he wants to change. “One thing in the law so important to me, it’s the law with the substitutions – there are too much subs and they arrive in the second half so that is cutting the flow of the game. “You have 20...

Re: £900k in the hole 22/23

Last accounts I can find on line for Thomond Park Stadium Company DAC are for the year ended 31 July 2021 They showed a loss after tax of 1.1 million euro. I have no idea what the Munster branch financial position is. Up until a few years ago they used to make their accounts open to their clubs. The...

Lyon beat Bayonne 42-29 on Friday night. Paddy scored a try, kicked 4 out of 5 conversions, kicked 2 penalties and dropped a goal. I can't remember the last time an Irish number 10 ticked all the scoring boxes in a game. But sure Crowley, Harry/Ross Byrne,Frawley, Prendergast, Carty, Hanrahan are al...

Dublin Riots.

A post from Babbling Brook. "Dublin, much like every Irish town and cuty, has far too many skangers and scumbags. I heard Leo before saying the anti social problems were caused by covid. This is complete nonsense. I left Ireland in 2009. When I go back every year to see family, the city is a f%...
