Got to agree caoimhaoin, very sad to see this sort of behavior from grown man. I cant wait for the 6 nations to start.
The six nations squad is being announced today, along with the Wolfhounds squad. How many new faces will we see in the 1st team squad. Props will be the same, Tuohy deserves a spot in the 2nd row. Henry and POM in the backrow, halfbacks will be the same.Fitz should get back in as well. Cave would surely have got in, only for injury as well. EOM deserves a shot as ye is a better 13 than Earls and McFadden, but can’t see Kidney picking him.

What the fuck is a wolfhound squad?
STFU :lol: :lol:

Some bizzare decisions I must say. Tuohy not being there at all is a disgrace. Cullen is injured, so hopefully he might get that spot. Fitz not in it, Jennings in before POM. No new players at all in the 24 man squad
Is this anto clown for real?
This thread is a stain on the front page.
Luke not in the main squad? Cullen included even though he won’t be able to play? Fuck off Declan Kidney.
Mini rant. As good a thread as any…
Was coming back from lunch there and heard these two absolute retards behind me talking through their holes about how tall rugby players are.
One of them said Eoin Reddan is a “big man, must be 6’ 2"”
Another one was talking about how his girlfriend thought Stringer was 5’ 6" but he met Peter Stringer and he must be 5’ 10".
Yeah, and Runt’s 8’ 2".
Good jaysus.
You were a stain on your father’s underpants, fuck off you idiot
Explain that one you simpleton.
Where do the additional players fit into the hierarchy? Disappointing, conservative and unimaginative selection. We were embarrassing against Wales but that’s all forgotten now.
Are you referring to the training squad or the wolfies mate ?
Presume they are below the wolfhounds and will take any places in that squad if anyone from the A side is moved up to the full squad.
Good squad, I think we are in for a decent Six Nations.
Jennings getting in is a joke. Not many othe surprises though going on DK’s form.
How many times do we have to have this discussion Kev? Jennings is the heartbeat of the Leinster backrow and fully deserves his place in the Irish squad.
Lads seem to be getting very bent out of shape because lads have been named in the A squad, i hope ye realise that the A squad have a game at the end of January and a few of these lads will then be added to the proper training squad for the Six Nations which begins a week later.
