They don’t seem to make these cotton jersies anymore. It’s all this synthetic tight gammy shite
Oddly Aki probably has more of a shot than James Lowe does of making the World Cup.
Which recently retired players should bring their boots to Australia as tourists there for the craic and hope to rock up on short notice and get a game in one of the midweek fixtures when there are injuries?
Shane Williams did this to magnificent effect in 2013.
If I was Conor Murray, Peter O’Mahony, Cian Healy or CJ Stander I’d be doing this.
Maybe even J-Sex could be an option against one of the dirt tracker teams.
Some good candidates for the lookalike thread there
I’ve a Large navy Lions training jersey I bought. Took tags off it, can’t give back to Elvery’s (stupid me). Sizes all over the place, I should have got medium. I wasn’t too know.
Bought for €95, will sell for €45 to any of my TFK brethren if ya’s are interested 
pm me.
They’re worth a shed load on the second hand market now, same as the football ones. There’s some retro rugby ones now but they could go a whole lot further now.
Quite the humble brag.

The British Lions touring party announcement and a Papal Conclave in the same day. It’s all just just too much to digest. I’m going to go for one of these short siesta things that the work shy Southern Europeans indulge in.

Delighted for Fua Leiofi Bundellu and to a lesser extent content enough to see Macklin selected as squad jokester.

It’s no coincidence Joe Duffy chose today to announce his retirement. This is quite simply the pinnacle.
To answer my own question, it seems to be 1977. Although Moss Keane had strong Cork connections. The Munster wiki lists him as Touring in 1974 but I can’t see that anywhere else. 1938 seems to be the year if he did indeed make it over in ‘74.
A good spread, 2 each from South Africa and Australia, 3 from New Zealand - same numbers from the southern hemisphere as Wales and Scotland combined. Im told for the first time since 1930 a Lions tour to Australia won’t include an Ulsterman.

12 from Leinster beats the 8 from Leicester in 2005 and 7 from London Welsh in 1971
A significant win for the IRFU
A significant win for Leinster.
