Ah Christ I didnāt even realise weāre playing Scotland after SA. That makes Ger Gilroy look like even more of a fool for suggesting that we put out the second string team against SA.
Yeah was surprised at thatā¦a very vocal poster with a lot of knowledge of the game. Didnāt strike me as a lapsed watcherā¦
An element of playing to the gallery maybe
There are a lot of lads really excited about the RWC but struggling to know how to play it on TFK. Afraid of their life they might get lumped in with us as ārubby menā which might damage their true Gael credentials come summer timeā¦ Anyway I hope they enjoy it
You flatter me, but I suppose when even my harshest critic gives that a like then I have to accept it.
I was a semi regular attendee at professional games in Ravenhill and England up to 4 years ago, but bar the occasional dander down to the local club for an AIL match now I wouldnāt bother much at all. The last time I was in Ravenhill the darling of the East Terrace was AB star Charles Piutau, Iām told that he is now Tonga star Charles Piutau.
Iād say Iām the type of watcher the rugby unions are desperate to get back to try and make the sport commercially viable again, I look forward to their charm offensive in the weeks ahead.
2015 patter from around here. I see @dodgy_keeper is also hanging around. If you want some picks for your Fantasy team, just ask mate. Hereās a start anyway
I would say all of the South sea Island teams will be uncompromising to say the least. Fiji and Samoa could beat anyone. Just a question of squad depth.
Iād happily joust away with someone who brings something original. Thomas Brady could bring it from time to time and perhaps with his absence some lads feel a bit more confident to come forward.
