No, apparently it's on independent medical advice.
In any case it would hardly weaken Leinster

Re: Ulster Vs Leinster HC Final 2012
Eggs I'm using the internet and the picture of bbc iplayer is better than using an internet streaming service also they scottish commentary on 5live is very good so im happy enough. Not sure D'arcy was completely out but took some time to treat him and he look very jelly legged coming off so would assume he will have to sit out next week which is a bit of shame was looking forward to the D'arcy vs Paddy W match up

Re: Ulster Vs Leinster HC Final 2012
Lessons to be learned from how Weegies are playing Leinster, strong set piece & solid defence. Sounds a bit like the job Ulster did on Munster. Template in place.
The longer Weegies make Mexico scrap the better I'll like it, bit like the Alamo really, not a victory in itself but did teh groundwork.
As for Clancy the S4C guy had a crack at him before ko.

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.

Actually the guy on the English commentary option has been very unsubtle about his low opinion of Clancy as wellutilityback wrote:Also the ex-player analysing on 5live is not a George Clancy fan so its not only us from Ulster who feel hard done by him lol

Re: Ulster Vs Leinster HC Final 2012
I would really suggest listening to the Scottish commentary the guy doing most of the talking has a touch of the Bill McLaren about him brings back memories of my childhood much better than the guff served up by the rest of the BBC and Sky

They do a series of tests in the preseason to determine brain power, sort of mensa test, they then have to get a similar score after a bang on the head , it could take a week or could take a month but until they get back to the same score they don't play

Re: Ulster Vs Leinster HC Final 2012
Not arguing with you, as I am not really clear on the rules, however it cant be purely a Mensa type test. That's an IQ test, certain concussions won't drop your IQ as they affect different areas. My understanding was that a full neurological assessment was involved. I may be wrong.
What's the state of play on paddy mac on that subject?
