It’s a facial recognition scam.

The whole rubby thing is obviously a sham, but Leinster resting the likes of Sexton in their league match against their apparent bitter and main rivals Munster makes a mockery of the league. It’d be like Barca leaving Messi out of a league game against Real Madrid because they’re playing Bayer Leverkusen at home in Europe the following week.

Of course, there’s the knock on effect that the Oirish players are nicely rested for the spring friendlies whereas the English and French are colliding into and piling up on top of each other all winter. Naturally enough the Oirish have been doing well in these games lately against that backdrop.

You can understand why the English and French want to reset the parameters for “european” competition as a result. I personally think that only two Oirish teams should be permitted into the main competition. This would force them to treat the league seriously.

There’s a very good explanation for that.

[flattythehurdler]

Not a very flattering one though.

[Juhniallio]

@Bandage

There’s a very good explanation for that.

You were too busy stalking RTE presenters to consider what your future self would think?

[Bandage]

I can stand over the vast majority of the million or two posts I’ve committed to the INTERNET, and this is one such occasion. Nobody wants to know the context here because it’s easier to bait and bully me. I’m very disappointed in a lot of you.

[Bandage]

Are you referring to my friendship with former RTE presenter and current Weekend AM (and relief Ireland AM) presenter on Virgin Media One, Laura Woods?

[Juhniallio]

Friendship? There’s a lad from @Funtime’s neck of the woods who had a similar friendship with Sharon nì Bheolàin…

[Bandage]

Didn’t you go halvsies on a life size cut out of her with him?

[Corksfinedtboy]

Like yourself

[Juhniallio]

Didn’t have the cash. I went for a full size Michael d instead.

You’ve came a long way, m8. It’s like the transformation those insta models do from their from their former chubby self to the bronzed washboard abs they now have.

Your rubby backing days were your former chubby self.

[Bandage]

I’m trapped here. It’s like being inside the Brexit web.

I want to explain but, if I try, everyone will jump down my throat with explaining = losing.

If I’m given the forum’s backing then I’ll happily clear this matter up.

This works on at least two levels- unlike the real Michael D

[Locke]

Please explain this @Bandage as it’s far too important for this forum not to get an explanation

[Bandage]

If I get at least 5 likes for my post above this one on the thread then I’ll take that as a quorum and provide a full and frank explanation.
