The Final

Post by Neill_M »

Sat at 5:30pm - Sky/TG4

Should hopefully be a good watch. I just hope that Connacht still have petrol left in the tank for another big performance and that the win over Glasgow was not their "cup final". Leinster were pretty good on Fri night.

Would be great to see an Exeter/Connacht double on Sat :D

Neill, effectively the previous game was their cup final, they had to win or go to Weegieland and make a different kind of history, the away semifinal that nobody can manage. I keep struggling to back them and they keep proving me wrong.

It would be very hard to say with confidence Connacht will beat Leinster ..... but we've said it all season that they will hit the buffers and they just keep winning.

What I expect is that they will be joyful underdogs with less to lose than Leinster. Could work out. >EW
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 think the world stopped caring D4

If one of our players gave the interview Jack McGrath gave yesterday I'd be embarrassed and be considering my support for my province

To only be able to motivate yourselves for one game is shocking and Leinstertainment need a full review of its culture and systems

To paraphrase he said that they couldn't motivate themselves throughout the year and could only motivate themselves when under the intense pressure Ulster put them under

That's downright disrespectful to the league, other players, the fans

Shock surprise, Nigel's the man in the middle.
You haven't seen me at my best yet. Let's be honest, you probably never will.

Nigel needs a new one liner for YouTube. Some of his material is getting old.

If the Westies go at the Mexicans like 15 demented dervishes, in a controlled way they can get the job done. The pressure is all on Mexico and if Connacht can rattle them early on, I like their chances.
If Leinster get an early lead, they will just shut them down and squeeze the life out of them and the game.
