Iā€™m surprised you havenā€™t given him the nickname ā€œChairman Danā€.

for limerick people Munster rubby is the only show in town.
there was 3 men and a dog in the Gaelic Grounds sunday as all the hardcore limericvk gaa men who hate the rubby were glued to BT sport cheering for a french rubby team. the other 95% were glued to BT sport cheering for their beloved Munster rubby.
there will be a few dozen lads now available to traipse around to hurling matches and we look forward to the detailed reports on those matches being posted here.

Thereā€™s a lot more competition in a European Cup in rugby than there is in the soccer equivalent when you get to the business end of the semi finals onwards. Munster have lost 6 semi finals in the last decade to six different sides - Leinster, Biarritz, Toulon, Clermont, Saracens and Racing. Llanelli, Wasps, Ulster, Northampton, Perpignan, Ulster and Edinburgh all semi finalists in recent years too.

In the soccer, thereā€™s a little more variety this year with Jurgen Klopp restoring former glories to traditional European superpower, Liverpool and Roma in the semi finals for the first time since 1984. Apart from that its pretty much the same sides in the semi finals nearly every year - current 6 in a row German champions, Bayern Munich, current 6 in a row Italy champions, Juventus and the Big 3 from Spain - Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid.

Go with your oul facts the soccer boys and the fior gaels just feel like rubby is bad bad bad. They are falling all over themselves since Sunday with a year of stored up jibes.

Munster have been in 8 semi finals in 10 years but Geoff reckons the same teams get to the semi finals in soccer only.

Munster have been in 6 of the last 10 European Cup finals, not 8 as youā€™ve incorrectly stated. In 2011/12, Munster exited in the quarter final to Ulster. In 2010/11, 2014/15 and 2015/16, Munster exited in the group stages.

Try to stick to the actual facts and stop peddling falsehoods and lies, which you feel suit your anti-rugby agenda.

I couldnt give a fiddlers mate ā€“ Munster have lost 6/7/8 semi finals in a row ā€” tis all the one

I believe one of Saracens, Clermont or Toulon have been in the last 5 finals and the only other team to get in there in that period was Racing? and over the last 7 years only 3 teams have won the comp - Toulon x 3 , Leinster x2 Saracens x 2 ā€¦

Looks like you dont get much variety at all at all.

Ooooooft

I gave them the facts above earlier
11 different winners and another 7 different finalists in the 21 years since launch of the comp. Its truly amazing the competitive nature of it

Itā€™s quite clear you donā€™t give a fiddlers. Youā€™re peddling an anti-rugby agenda. If the facts donā€™t suit, you just make them up and hope for the best you donā€™t get pulled up on it.

Iā€™m a big rugby man as are most of my family.

Not really mate. Rugby is a sport where whichever team is at home generally wins if both teams are relatively even on paper. No surprise there is more variety in a less skilled game

peddling

Itā€™s true for you ā€¦

Hereā€™s the last 5 finals in the rubby.

Fellas googling and screenshotting and pleading they are not interested. Absolute gas cunts.there is a few lads have the day given over to it :joy::joy:
