Yes, but this will attract the bandwagoners, and corporate types, it’ll be huge mate, HUGE.

11742

To be fair there’s a chance the rugby SF would sell out Croker. Unlike a hurling AI semi-final.

11743

6pm on a Sunday? There’s never quarter finals on at the time

11744

Not sure what that has to to with what I said?

11745

Applications are now being accepted for the role of new head coach of Munster.

11746

failed rugby league player sammy burgess making the step down

11747

I see Rob Penney is quitting Munster at the end of the season to coach a Japanese side. Will Slurpy get the gig this time?

11748

His experience with the O2 Wolfhounds means its a no brainer.

11749

what about fast eddie for munster lads? He is hardly flat out with Garryowen

11750

Halvey?

11751

This looks like the monster is eating itself. Munster could be becoming a victim of their own success as well as believe too much of their own guff. The article by ROG today was very informative as to the mindset of some of the “legends”. Most of that mindset is very admirable, but it is also the kind of thing that can make you narrow minded. I hope they don’t fall into that trap.

11752

Let’s hope they do.

11753

Surprised more of his former Munster team mates haven’t come out in support of Foley in the press this morning.

11754

They only do that in court

11755

Maybe cos they don’t think he’s all that.

Very poor decision to let Penny go now, he’d the donkey work done.

What’s your big beef with Munster CCHA? I know your a big hurling man, but has Munster (or rugby)really robbed anyone of significance from Limerick hurling? Haven’t any of the Ard Scoil Ris lads gone to hurling?

Cork lost 2 certainties, but I never remember Limerick going on about anyone? Surely that’s the only fear? Crowds, support etc is not an issue seeing as both are massive bandwagons and in different seasons?

Serious question, not a WUM?

They may have not lost any potential superstars, but I’d imagine it’s tough for the clubs around the city region, who will see any big strong 14/15 year old players they have being enticed by promises of lucrative professional careers in rugby

Sarcasm mate, sar-casm. Half a dozen have been rolled out already in the first 24 hours.

They are the same lads running into the field with you last year at the Gaelic grounds.

You don’t get the same level of bitterness in Cork about them, it must have to be a bit if success jealousy.
