Nasty stuff of an Easter Saturday evening
Holy Saturday. Next Saturday is Easter Saturday.
Fuck sake, that’s EVEN worse!!!
Extract from Owen Doyle’s article in the IT today.
A similar tackle in Ulster v La Rochelle saw Hollie Davidson unhesitatingly yellow card Zac Ward. Nobody can argue against this stiffer sanction, which must be the go-to decision for this level of foul play. Anything worse, and the colour of the card changes.
Davidson has done extremely well, fully deserving of her place at the high table. She has had to put up with some nasty misogyny along the way, which she has dealt with extremely well.
Disgracefully it continues. I overheard a few young low-lifes recently, sniggering into their beer about her. It was unprintable stuff. A disgrace to their families and the fee-paying school they attend – they would undoubtedly be disowned by both.
But Davidson really needn’t worry about these snivelling types. The vast majority of true rugby people are all with her.
He couldn’t help himself
The biggest disgrace in that game was Doak not putting the ball out on the red when they’d the handicap covered - with inevitable results
Was a bet lost?
Affirmative, sure how else was I supposed to watch it in the pub
I note Mr. Mullin didn’t suffer the fate of being strangled to death on camera by security.
However it is a sad descent for the former British Lions hero.
Didnt realise hed finished his sentence
Please don’t forget the full stop to finish your one.
She helped him significantly there did she not? Did she get more than the 10k?
The IRFU, Clontarf rugby and presumably Belvedere College all giving a character reference to a fella on trial for assaulting a woman - some parts of the country seem very slow to move forward. Glad to see his GAA club had no part in it.
It’s like an entire multi-organisations worth of mickey hartes
They must have done some number on that poor girl.
not sure if a member of your club assaulting a woman & the club not giving a reference is the win you think it is mate
“when members of my sport beat women we dont give character references*”
*sometimes
I’m not sure clubs can be held accountable for all actions of their members, but they can be held accountable for their response. The response by those here offering character references for a man found guilty of an assault on a woman is not what we should be putting up with in 2026, I’m surprised an enlightened fella like you sees it differently .
have they condemned him?
or issued a statement about it not being inline with the ethos of the club?
