All well and good him saying that, but when you've seen him cheat your team as he undoubtedly did in Dublin many years ago, some will never forget it & certainly not forgive. Dog & Ulcer & I won't.

A ref can be wrong, he should never cheat, feck off Rolland I'll not miss you.
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.

Six Nations 2014: Wesley Fofana injured for France

France centre Wesley Fofana is likely to miss the remainder of the Six Nations after fracturing a rib during Friday's defeat by Wales.

Fofana, 26, a major creative influence at inside centre, is expected to be sidelined for three to four weeks.

His club Clermont Auvergne say he suffered a "fracture of the 11th rib on the right side".

France face Scotland on 8 March and then host Ireland on 15 March in the final fixture of the championship.

Les Bleus were well-beaten 27-6 in Cardiff on Friday but, with two victories and one defeat, are level on points with Wales, Ireland and England and remain in contention for the title.
Never good to see one of the best players in the comp miss out through injury, but every cloud has a silver lining I guess. This one just so happens to be for Irish title chances...

That silver lining could have an edge in the promotion of Gael Fickou from the bench, a tricky enough player by all accounts...

This is our best chance to beat France in quite some time then, Fofana and Picamoles are two huge blows

Just watching some clips of the Wales v France game. It boils my blood seeing players pat their opposition on the head after they win a scrum or penalty. I noticed this on Friday night. I have a real desire to punch Adam Jones, one of the main culprits.

Owen Farrell is a fking brad pitt. Meant to tackle my Brennan! I pray to god someone puts him on his Brennan come April in Ravenhill.

I'm on 191, and being an expert, I am struggling to work out why I'm not leading the damn thing. My team were 71540th last weekend dropping me like a bloody stone to 1805th overall, I fear the prize has gone. :duh:

Gratifyingly I am romping away in my mini-league of 14 souls, good bragging rights. >EW
