[quote=ātherock67ā] Wouldnāt fancy Leinster in Wycombe (if thatās where Wasps still play) but over here I think theyāll be galvanised by the win last week and should be able to grab a win.

I thought he made himself perfectly clear

Hang on a second. Is the Leinster game on in Donnybrook, Adams Park, the RDS, Twickenham or Croke Park tomorrow?
Ballsbridge

That Leinster back row will just get better and better the more games they play. Anybody know much about Cian Healy? I recall when Belvo won the S in 2004 or thereabouts he was touted as future international material and an outstanding prospect. Has he progressed? Why was Cillian Willis let go to Ulster? Chris Whittakerās not going to be around much longer, or is he?
healy is dynamite in the loose but is poor enough in the scrumā¦but considering his age you expect him to struggle in the scrumā¦he is still 2/3 years and a nice bit of coaching away from being a nailed on starter fro leinster let alone irelandā¦its a long auld apprenticeship at prop although working with the likes of van der linde will helpā¦
Rua out for the Champions, Dowling recovers to take his place on the wing.
presume it is barry murphy in the centreā¦of course we all remember what happened the last time murphy played against saleā¦
Staunton at Full Back for Wasps - Interesting enough I suppose
and lets not forget chabal getting driven backwards eitherā¦
staunton played nearly all his rugby for munster at full backā¦
Presume so pukey, havent had it confirmed yet, just heard one change.
With regards to Jezzer at 15 for Wasps, its funny considering he moved to Engliand first to get more gametime at 10 because he was being made play 15 at Munster due to there being an out half which he couldnt usurp. I like Staunton, but heās not a 15.
How many games was that?!
2 seasons of H Cup worth Iād imagine. He took over from Crotty and handed over to Payne I think, but there may have been a stop gap in there in between.
he was first choice fullback for at least one season, think it was around 02/03ā¦
