Munster Rugby - We DID start the fire (Part 1)

True. It must be June 2016 since they won it last

In fairness you’ve just proved my anti rugby credentials there. Thanks Dan. Winner alright.

As GT would say “pas de probleme”

Munster shortened to 1/4 post team announcement.

Not sure why the move Munster slightly weaker than expected and Racing selected as expected.

Munster still on an emotional roll. Irish betting bias should also push their prices past a fair midpoint.

How can we make money on the potential crash st the end of this run? During 6 nations perhaps when squads are thinner, although the Welsh and Scots may have the same problem

Irish squads far more depth than the others. Scots picking from two sides and the Welsh from three more or less so as badly affected.

Don’t think this upturn in Munster fortunes is a whole pile to do with Foley death. They were motoring along nicely up to that point. Few bits and pieces had been tightened up from last year. The improvement at out half, better defence coaching and having POM back fit the biggest factors. Scrum now very solid too. Appears Erasmus arranged for Flannery to go to SA in off season to get some advice on scrum coaching. It’s worked.

Nail on the head.

So not a betting opportunity then?

Not in expecting them to fall away due to postponed grief anyways!

If you see conor Murray limping at any stage I’d start opposing them strongly

Any truth to the story about the reserve scrum-half being sent back to his club for game time but not being used by said club?

That happened last season.

Happening again this season from what I hear

Na it was last season alright.
