Maybe beating the European Champions is not impressive.

You want us to play the All Blacks in a firendly next year?

well i want expecting anything from the team munster were playing, but they did ok and worked hard. i thought james downey in the centre was very promising for us, and a few others seemed good enough. just would have expected more from such a strong tigers team.

Roll on the HC when we get to see th REAL match. Sounds like some of the Tigers are in good nick. Sam appears to have a good game after his good performance against Toulon. Glad to see GM on the scoresheet as well. Paul Burke seems to have a good game to.

Beating the full strenght munster side that won the HC would have been very impressive indeed. but beating that munster side with an almost full strength leicester side should not really ever be much of a problem. had munster played their full strength side the score and result could easily have been different.

Leinster also got confrotably beaten, by London Irish. Wonder if this is all just down to Irish sides putting out weak line-ups for friendlies or whether there might be a bit of shift in the balance in this year's HC? Maybe Ulster for CL/ML champs again. :)
