He says he will send a physical or electronic copy if you give him a shout at neale.richmond@oir.ie. Might aswell get a few off him.
I wouldnt be surprised if thats the wall of richmonds office 
Great to see such enthusiasm from a public rep.
I see England are expecting less than 40k at their final test match at Twickenham before the start of the world cup. This isnāt a surprise either, the premiership final attendances tell a story over recent years.
If the game is dying in the motherland how long has it left in the various parts of the old empire?
Full tomorrow night for NZ SAā¦reflection of the dirge they are playing as much as anything

Thatās all the barmen working in London though that will fill it, John Bull has given up on the sport. Sure the premiership finals have been relatively decent games in recent years and the crowd numbers are tumbling.
There was over 60k at the final between sarries and London. Neither of those have more than 10k average attendances so thatās a massive crowd.
Between who? The trend of attendances at the premiership final is in the tweet above and itās very clear the direction things are moving. Itās no wonder clubs are folding. 40k at a test match in Twickenham, a pathetic attendance.
Sale and sarries.
It isnāt a pathetic attendance. Iām surprised there is 40k at it.
40k is very good going.
They are playing fiji in a warm up game at 3 pm on a Saturday.
Iām not sure how youād expect any more to be at it.

You are back here again making any old shite up, not an idea what you are saying but determined to say it. The attendance is pathetic, itās why there is so much discussion on it.
If we saw as dramatic a drop off for AI finals in hurling or football there would be no end to your posting about the split season and the death of the GAA.

You didnāt even know New Zealand were playing South Africa tomorrow.
You made a silly sweeping statement about rugby being finished in England.
I remember you making a similar sweeping statement about rugby being finished in Munster and we know what happened there in the next few weeks.
Letās hope history doesnāt repeat itself.
40k v Fiji is a huge attendance. This is englands 4th game in as many weeks and there playing 4
Games in the month too in France.
There is only so many times fans will fork out particularly when their team is going so badly.
Iām fully aware that game is on tomorrow, the discussion is on the 40k attendance at the England game though. It is a major topic of conversation among the brighter rugby minds, its unlikely to bother you.
You were Caught out talking rubbish as you tried your usual stick of having a pop at rugby.
Who in their right mind is going to go to England v Fiji on a Saturday particularly when you are up against the premier league and they are playing the Argies in Paris in two weeks time.
You are some clown of a fella.
60k at a game between sale and sarries is a huge attendance despite you trying to claim itās abysmal.
When the national team have what they want, they wonāt go by. At that level the coach is a dud. Thereās deffo players there.
