Re: Why no penalty try?

Certainly agree re. Harrison's inability to 'get in the referee's ear - what a stark contrast to O'Callaghan - now there's a leader!
Anyone see his huge Irish smile when he came off!!

Re: Main issue

Our second rows and back row are the weakness in our team. Just got back this morning and I've calmed down a bit! Our group all agreed after the game that the above statement is a pivotal reason for poor performances against top European teams - we have good players in those positions but there are...

Re: Munster v Leicester, Thomond Park

7 of us going from here to meet up with 5 cousins from Tralee & Limerick - OMG! Could be hard keeping up with them! Like JJF, I think it'll be very hard to equal last year' s result as they seem to be on the 'up' with the Foley effect and Ireland's successes. Hope our returning internationals ca...

Re: Pat Lam to take over at Briz next season

I think he's too classy a bloke to be attracted by a big 'wedge' so my question would be, 'Why go to probably-doomed Bristol?'
Surely he would get better opportunities to join our league.

Re: Can we have the Crumbie back please?

Always has been ; always will be

Don't want to join the 2 or 3 yearly merry-go-round of sponsor's names as, in the main, they don't mean much to the majority of supporters.

Re: Sad News Anthony Foley has passed away overnight

Good man of Munster.
All the Leiecester Whelans will be there in December - hope the Tigers remember the man appropriately on the day.

On Total Rugby tonight, Will Greenwood said GP is leaving - have I missed this?
He's the ONE person we can't afford to lose.

Re: Team v Toulouse (A) looks ok except at 7

Toothless show. I don't see us as a bad side but we are light years away from being a really top class side that so many of us remember,from not too long ago. Quins have moved the game on. We used to put fear into other teams - not any more. Although I don't think RC is good enough at the very top l...

Errors under pressure kill us - self induced destruction too many mistakes -
