Munster announced new deals for Kilcoyne (Summer 2025), Archer (January 2025) and Nash (Summer 2026).

Also being linked with Saffer winger / Full back Thaakir Abrahams who is currently at Lyon. Kolbe - esque apparently.

Hosting Benetton on Saturday September 7 at 5pm. Pity. I always like to see a different side from the usual URC teams. No English or French sides available? Or a Spanish/Dutch/German nationl side? They are playing Exeter away, after hosting them before the 22/23 season. The French season next seaso...

Sorry the rumoured URSC bus not happening.

Thanks, Neill. I've just seen that it's the top eight, regardless of nationality so... If we don't get anything against Munster: Embra will go above us if they win; Benetton will go above us if they win with a bp and Lions will go above us if they win with a bp. If we get a bp against Munster, we q...

Surely if the stormers beat the lions then we are safe for 7th? Only one of benneton amd Edinburgh can pass us. But by the book, you need 6th for guaranteed Champions Cup rugby. I know the chances of 8th seed winning in Limerick, then Glasgow and then Pretoria are slim. Stormers could still theoret...

Help me out here. Sharks have won the Challenge cup so go into the Champions cup next year. That means only seven places left. Do Benetton go in as the top Italian team, which means that only six places remain? If we don't get anything against Munster... we need Benetton to beat Embra and we need S...

2 match points in Limerick is enough, will know if we even need the 2. Benetton Edinburgh and Stormers Lions play before us.

Do we know why tomorrow’s final is so early, not least given it clashes with the FA Cup Final? It was scheduled at 2:45pm months ago, it is early as the French wanted that. They have their FA Cup final and the Cannes Film Festival on Saturday PM. FA Cup Final kick off only confirmed post semi final...

Always so positive, if Stormers stay 5th they will probably travel to Glasgow.

It’s not inconceivable that Stormers will try to give themselves a chance to finish 7th so they can play the Bulls, giving Lions the five points and potentially pushing us down to 8th. For Stormers to drop to 7th, Edinburgh would need a BP win and Ulster get 2 match points, Benetton have too much t...
