@Rocko @Bandage - Can you remove the last 200 posts of pure scutter from here? This thread is to celebrate the demise of Munster Rugby, not for some sad old fucks to reminisce about the 70s/80s. Thanks.

Wonderful empathy for the game of Rugby Football shown here over the last 2 days. God be with the days when rugby was all fat lads and fast lads and it was either fast lads running dainty rings around the fat lads, or fast lads contracting pneumonia on the outskirts of a pitch while the fat lads shoved each other up and down it for 80 minutes, all while one lad with a nice haircut either knocked over or knocked wide a few kicks and generally decided a game. You canāt beat progress.

He was originally from Wexford, as far as I know.
Remembering him limping over the line to score a consolation try in one game, might have been a mid week game.
Same tour we nearly beat New Zealand, Vinny Cunningham scoring possibly 2 tries. Some Ulster winger almost got in for a late interception which would/could have lead to winning try.
Iām assuming that was first test as the result of other test was a hammering.

Neville Furlong was a GAA player with the Shelmaliers club in Wexford. He went to college in Galway and his army career took him to Limerick. He must have got led astray in college and then latterly in Limerick to end up playing rugby football with Ireland. The last Irishman to score a 4-point try in international rugby football with a consolation in a hammering in New Zealand is Nevilleās claim to fame.

No.
Thats right - Derek McAleese had a stormer at out half the same day. One Ireland really could have won.
I think the day Cunningham got the two tries a fella called Russel was out half and was never seen or heard from again!
Dan, did you ever play against my cousin Derek Tobin?
The cookie with the tach?
Heād be a lot older than me Iād say and a lot better player than I was! Never came across him on the pitch no

I saw him act the scut, alot, against UCC down the Mardyke a few times. He was similar but not as brazen against Con in Temple Hill as well. The fact that he was different says it all.
On the telly?
Now I know what you will look like in 10 years time. Sallow and bald.

No baldness here, kid.
Toby was a class player. I donāt think he would have been in the top 10 of scuts to play for Munsters in that team. No 1 on that team would have been outhalf Micko āPsychoā Benson. He made Peter Clohessy look like an angel.
Talk to me round 2025

His forte actually was flexing in front of a mirror.
