@CorkGourmetGuy Do you really think that even with crowley there vs not there we should win 2 of 3

Typical Farrell squad, almost all safe picks, just enough new blood so he can claim he's developing for the future but they'll only get a few minutes. Without Crowley we're fucked at 10! Farrell should never have gotten a new contract prior to the next RWC #IrishRugby

@patmccarry Yeah but they might finally give some young guys a chance

This is what Leinster's Ins & Outs for next season were looking like, before the James Lowe news was confirmed Serious talent drain and, so far, it is only Joey Carbery coming in and a handful of academy players set for pro deals

@patmccarry Rabah saved the game for leinster clarkson got beaten a bunch

Tom Clarkson stood up to another fierce challenge, against Stormers. That URC Final against Bulls will be equally tough Took him a while to get to this level, but his progress has been a real boost for Leinster, and Ireland 🔵☘️ rugbypass.com/plus/leinster-…

@Brendennel I mean stormers talked to holly multiple times its disingenious to say only one sides at it

Stormers lost this with the Ackermann cleanout. They were in this despite the crowd, Leinster and Holly. But the Moerat decision was terrible. At some point we need to ask how one side gets away with talking to ref all the time while the other is told to keep quiet. Sigh.

@JoeNaConnacht Go get jack boyle and gus mcarthy pick edogbo x2, gleeson and quinn beirne at 5 that pack is up there all you need then is a tight head for a decent pack top end pack

The Bulls are some side. Munster were missing players, but the game highlighted something supporters have been saying for a while now – the squad needs more depth. In • Jack Aungier • Marnus van der Merwe Out • John Ryan • Niall Scannell • Jean Kleyn • Thaakir Abrahams

@RugbyD4 @slatterywill But he wasnt great in any game was he sale, edinburgh werent great games

@JacobKelly57343 @slatterywill Harry had two bad games in the SF & Final. Some players (Lowe eg) are big game players. It seem he isn’t.

What do you say about a 35-7 half Bordeaux got two big strokes of luck but Leinster's defence isn't slowing Bordeaux's attack, their own attack has looked blunt bar that ruck blitz for the try, they've struggled in the air and had plenty of handling errors

@garkelly007 @slatterywill Over harry byrne yes

@JacobKelly57343 @slatterywill You think “Prendo” would have made a difference 😂😂

@patmccarry @UlsterRugby Whats the point of this tector was 10 for the 20s thats season and cant get a run at 10 and then ulster sign a player when tector could just move up north we need to fix a broken system where leinster squad players wont move elsewhere

Nice bit of business by @UlsterRugby as they confirm Jamie Benson will join, from Harlequins, at the end of this season Only 23, an outhalf that can also cover centre and fullback. Irish-qualified, too 🍀 Last game for England was at U20 level, when Ireland won 6N Slam (2022)

@adammoursy I think its leinster setup causing issues

At what point will the rugby journalists in Ireland start asking questions around the Irish coaching set up? Particularly around 2 ex players with basically no coaching experience given senior roles Make no mistake about it, Irish rugby is in a precarious position as a whole

@RuaidhriOC How we went to him a few years ago, wasnt good enough why not look at casper, tector in 10 instead why waste more time

@RuaidhriOC Leo should be gone been piss poor for years

This must be right up (down) there with the worst performances Leinster have put out under Leo Cullen

@CaolanSRugby He didnt pick any young players for munster, and went to the team with the biggest budget in england lets but the context on the point

It’s remarkable to see the work Johann van Graan has done with Bath From bottom of the Premiership to a final, and now are top spot with 3 games left + a Challenge Cup final His role developing URC winning players at Munster is also understated A very underrated coach

@RuaidhriOC Bit of an over reaction

The Six Nations showed that Ireland are no longer one of rugby's elite teams and for Andy Farrell there is a huge amount of work to do to get back to the level they hit in 2022 and 2023 independent.ie/sport/rugby/si…

@DavidFinn5 Hes going to finished with the same record as crowley in his first 6 nations

@Smallclone_ Very convienent to only show the end contact and not the full action he comes throught the gate and legally cleans out falls on dupont, its unlucky but nowhere near fowl play

Clear targetting of the standing leg of Dupont

@Richiehickle55 @TightFive_Rugby He wasnt our pack got smashed

@TightFive_Rugby Prendergast was the main reason that they lost

FT: ☘️ IRELAND 27 - 42 FRANCE 🇫🇷 The best win in the Fabien Galthié era? Incredible performance, especially given the immense pressure they were under in the first 15 minutes, and losing Dupont in the first half. The bonus-point puts the title fate in their own hands, a BP win next week and the title is theirs 👀 #GuinnessM6N

@kswindlehurst91 @TightFive_Rugby Its just not a pen whatso ever, clearly if you think thats a card you lack a complete feel for the game

@TightFive_Rugby I’m a referee of rugby myself and honestly I’m actually disgusted at the officiating of this game that is a high tackle and to me a yellow I’ll give the mitigation of a change of direction and low force but he goes off

Not worth a look then… #IREvENG

Its really dissappointing how leinster are so far ahead of the other provinces irfu need to let teams add in key positions munster front row, ulster 2nd row and connacht need a backrow carrier #MUNvLEI
