The Rugby Thread (Part 2)

The IRFU admitted using Tay Tay ticket prices as a benchmark when setting their ticket price

@flattythehurdler

As in any other case, just because they can, it doesn’t mean they should. I think the autumn international pricing is borderline scandalous. You could get a good seat at Bruce Springsteen cheaper

Prices up to that amount. Cheaper available as well for school kids etc.

Things cost money and demand is a factor, that’s life. It funds rugby on the island.

Was their school kids tickets for all blacks and Aussie games? I tried for schoolboy ticket and told not available

[Tim_Riggins]

Usually are some? Not sure where they put them these days. It used to be the south terrace.

I wonder will Cullen look at Barrett at 15?

id chance Keenan and jimmy o Brien on the wings. that would be good from an Irish pov.

You have Osbourne to take over from him at 15 or Keenan to move back. You could look at Osbourne at 12 and Henshaw at 13 which would be good from an Irish pov.

Gas article in the Irish times about the differences between European power houses and the likes of Ulster after the Toulouse result.

Meanwhile Leinster funded by a ten million per year sub academy a long With rg Synman and jordie barrett on the subs get no heat.

[Godshonesttruth]

Leinster are turning into the Man City of rugby, buying Barrett and Snyman this year, as if they didnt have enough talent at their disposal. Can see a big ABL sentiment starting to grow.

[BruidheanChaorthainn]

They are globo gym.

Munster are average joes

Man City actually bought quite sensibly and have quite a small squad and actually win the prize. Not a good analogy. Chelsea maybe.

Billy Burns making it onto a list for an Irish sports personality of the year award is absolutely wild. He’s not even the best rugby player in his own family.

[BruidheanChaorthainn]

Amazing galopin des champs is on that list

[PhattPike]

Some of the hurling nominations in that full list are fairly bizarre.

Isn’t it a list of their sports stars of the week.

[BruidheanChaorthainn]

Ahhhh that makes more sense.

Someone surely having a fucking laugh or else the intern was told to put on that minster out half I can’t remember their name…and put in the wrong one

I’m open to correction but I’m fairly sure billy burns was mom v Leinster on New Year’s Day.

Hence his nomination.

[LionelRitchie]

If there was an award for ugly cunts of the year, hed be in with a shout. He’s wan ugly bastard.

Nevermind Ravenhill, fuck off back to Mordor you heinous orc.

[neilld]

He was electric that night in fairness
