Sexton was one of the best players in the world when they lost him?
Murphy has been in and around Ireland for years and just won a Slam.
Ditto Madigan before he left.
Marty Moore was an up and coming players still.
Leinster wanted to keep all the players I mentioned.
That is far from a 34 year old second row, who whilst a very good player, you seem to think is the next coming of Christ.
Zebo left for reasons similar to Madigan and Moore. At least both of them won some things though before leaving.
They were replaced through the Leinster system.
It is very easy to crow about the Leinster structural advantage now but that is half of it. Leinster have been miles more forward thinking than the other provinces for years now. Munster neglected their system until 5 years ago but have still managed to be very competitive.
Leinster are exporting about half a dozen players a year now elsewhere from the system. What exactly should they be doing?
Zebo was offered a national contract on a similar level to others with that package. It’s hardly the IRFU’s fault or Leinster’s fault if he decides to walk out on the brave and faithful for a bit of cash. Lots of other players could potentially earn more abroad but decide there’s more to it than that.
Less whining more winning would be the best plan for Munster.
I cringe when I see fellow rogbee fans respond so poorly to the trolls, we lost, we will come back stronger because to the brave and the faithful nothing is impossible
To see a fellow rogbee fan responding every time with petty jibes is unbecoming and shows a lack of self awareness
