The Rugby Thread (Part 2)

Gibson’s passing is another level. Finn Russell and Gibson Park together is an unbelievable combination. Mitchell is a great running threat though.

They’d have to give the SANZAR lads something but it would be huge

Gibson park isn’t the player he was in 2024. He’s on the slide.

Russell could get a test by default but Owen Farrell will be togged and warmed up from the off to take his place.

He’s not indeed but his passing is still that bit ahead I think. Farrell is there because the two English lads aren’t all that. Jack Crowley is better than both goal kicking aside

Conan is a better player than Ben Earl on that today

Poor aul Hansen has been woeful since Hodnett dislocated his shoulder that time. Just hasn’t found his usual rhythm at all since.

11 irish starters?? Surely not

That’s what I think he’ll pick.

Porter, Sheehan, beirne/mccarthy, van der flier, Gibson park, aki, Lowe and furlong are pretty much nailed on.

I don’t see any real standout at six. Maybe Morgan starts and beirne loses out. Conan isn’t great but he’ll hardly start Ben earl. Kinghorn and Hansen is maybe a coin toss.

That stupid thing where he puts his leg out and then keeps running in the same direction. Having him in a team is like having a lad on the back of your motorbike who’s off his chops on ecstacy.

Farrell is there because his dad wants a few more quid in the family accounts. Sin e.

Incredible rugby here.

Best of luck to Irish international Jack Carty on the opening of his cutting-edge padel hall in Carrowbrowne.

As I said before: the next world war will be fought between Hyroxers and Padelers.

Lovely piece on Sir Anthony in the Paper of Record this morning @ChairmanDan

What about this new Rugby competition with franchises throughout the world? 10 of England squad apparently signed up.

I doubt they’ll have any players left for it after all the concussions

Any lad signing up for it would want their head examined.
