2022 Six Nations rugby championship

That’s a pity, he seemed to generate some real excitement when first on the scene. Disappointing to see not a single Ulster player on the team suggested to start, surely population and club numbers should see them have a few lads good enough to be getting in?

Even the IRFU are putting an asterix beside that Mack Hansen chap

The Corkies can lay claim to Mack Hasnen. His mother is from Cork.

Cadbury lol

4 Blackrock Old boys, 2 Michaels, 1 Clongowes, 1 Marys, 1 Gerard’s, 1 Wesley, and 1 Andrews old boy named on the 15. 3 lads brought in from abroad and one chap who went to a non fee paying school in Ireland on the “team of us”.

Is Conor Murray the only token Limerick man involved?

No idea of nuance of rule but he will be eligible for Tonga anyway

Notbsure how good a signing it is. Cracking player but would be v opposed to buying someone with his recent injury record allied to munster history of signing injured players
