Republic of Ireland would win that competition 20-25% of the time minimum. The record against NI, Scotland & Wales for the past 25 years is outrageous. They always raise their game against England and France. Guaranteed to have more than 3 grandslams in 120+ years anyway.

oh my lord, Nigel Owens has come out and criticized one of the Australian players religious beliefs
Surely thats him done as a referee?
No one really cares.
Rugabc1 is not relevant in the greater scheme of things.
He came out years ago.

Are people not allowed to have different opinions?
Referees shouldnāt have bias against current players
Iāve reffed against those Portlaoise cunts many times and Iād go out of my way to shaft them.

A chap called JP Doyle to ref Munsterās āEuropeanā semi final against Racing.
Bit odd considering he was born in Ireland and lived here until he was 21ā¦
Born 78 or 79 I bet.
Will we get the same number of Francis this year.

Surely there was a Romanian or Georgian that could have reffed it.
Seems harsh on the French lads

According to the radio itās āDublin refereeā JP Doyle. Dublin is in Leinster. Whatās the problem?
Iv been informed PJ and Olding will be getting the old heave ho in the morning.
I wonder what way they padded out that deal. It was probably more of a commercial decision rather than a moral one- Iād say the bank of Ireland statement was significant and carefully timed.
I wonder whether they havenāt already planned a move. Wouldnt mind seeing them at sale. No one in blighty has heard much and they could walk the streets unmolested. Staying at ulster was never suitable for them in the short term.

They definitely have something lined up. Id heard while back PJ had a pre agreement with exeter but havent heard much in a while. Id be going to france if I was in their shoes. I said it here 6 months ago they werenāt going back to ulster it was never an option. Id imagine there is a lot of anger amongst the squad about the situation
100% a commercial decision. Id say they got a good pay out to walk away
If the two have been given the sack for their conduct Rory Best should also face some form of censure for showing up to support them and said conduct.

Why? Do you think the judge was lying when she said he had been advised to attend court? I havent seen any suggestion of that
Best looked at situation and declined to be a character witness with full sight of facts.
