Should John hodnett have been moved to hooker a few years back? Heâs barely six foot.
They tried to and he nearly gave the game up.

Really? Reminds me of Sean o brien but heâs smaller.
Yeah. Not sure was it when he came out of schools into academy but they tried to move him to hooker for that reason. He got the shits with it and said fuck it, went back to backrow with club.
They are indeed. And who could blame them. That was pretty much exactly why Munster signed him as well though and people lost their shit over it
He refused. He played in the centre a few times with college Iâd say he would have preferred that
They said they signed him as a back row to replace stander, which wasnât really a convincing argument at all. Probably because a replacement for stander wasnât needed and because Munster already had two large SA second rows and were adding a third? Seems to me like the criticism was entirely legitimate.
Technically Kleyn is IQ so there was only one NIQ second row. The positional fudge has been used for ages. Doug Howlett arrived as a âfull backâ. The criticism is still somewhat valid in that you want the NIQ to be proper marquee players like DDA or Snyman and not journeymen like Cloete and Jenkins.
Wasnât it. Where has he played for Munster that would convince you he wasnât signed as a back row
If youâre just going to play silly buggers I will bid you good day.
No bother.
Good day.
Thomond Park was at a 50% limit for a few seasons before covid.

Len Dineen Jr is seething with Munster 
Whatâs all this about? Are Munster in the doldrums?
Wouldnt have thought so. Seems like a lot of drama in the article
I read the start of it, to think the AIL is not being used more by now is crazy.

Munster rugby has lost the bandwagon brigade as they now follow the Limerick hurlers. Theyâll be back soon enough.
Exeter or sale in the last sixteen. Ulster/Toulouse I think in the 1/4 final.
