Youâre considerably quieter about the financial doping when it suits you. Silent even. Youâve no interest in fairness, youâre just window licking.

What?
Some tough love seems to be working though.
Munster are starting to produce players again
No harm in that.
Munster providing their fair share now again of underage players.
Should have been without signing him
lol.
Leinster have produced two tight heads of international class in 24 years. Despite having every single advantage.
Unfortunately tough love doesnât work.
Whatâs the story with Pa Campbell?
Two?
Furlong and Moore
No harm in that, we canât produce every position. Strange that we have pushed young McCarthy to the loose head given so much stock there. Porter may well switch back as suggested by Jackman.
Shame we couldnât take back Jäger but Munster needed another handout.
Thatâs Luke fitz, Bernard Jackman and Gordon Darcy all echoing my sentiment about the deeply unfair system weâve in Irish rugby where a tiny cohort of players based in a small few schools have huge advantages.
This podcast is interesting about beating the systems in place. Think itâs Brighton university who are encouraging sports teams to pool players based on physical development and not age.
Maybe ye could sign another cork born prop like Mike Ross.

Ah yes. Fairly generous on Moore. Ireland is odd with tightheads, very very few and rely on single exceptional ones. Probably better off now than we have been in a long time.
It doesnât help when youâve only four starting spots in a system.
Moore was a very good player fairly sure he got some serious injuries.
Porter has played a lot as international tight head too.
Iâm not sure this is the gotcha that you think.
I think a position like scrum half is one where you could be more critical.
Yeah we did well having Ross, Cronin and Reddan for a few years.
That was a product of the 2000s where our underage and Academy system wasnât working as well at it should.
Those guys helped us to be very successful in Europe and Leinster supporters are grateful.
It would be nice to see reciprocal appreciation for the direction of travel being the other way in the Nucifora era. It isnât our fault that you have failed to exploit the talent sent your way.
Itâs not a unique viewpoint, Iâd say itâs generally accepted.

I was talking about munsters front rows. Not scrum halves.
It was Leinster. And it was incorrect.
Kitsoff has smashed in, backed up the truck, and filled it
