Personally I measure a countryâs quality of life exclusively on the basis of how strong that countryâs air force is and I canât understand why anybody would apply any other criteria.

Iâm all for free speech but insulting our airforce is a step too far.

Dead right How dare they. Our air force is among the finest in the world

No mention of David Blanchfield fouling the ball in the build up to TJ Reidâs late score that put two between the sides. As clear as day that he threw the ball up to himself and caught it.

Was that not blown as a free?
Nope. Move ended off with a TJ Reid point to make it 1-20 to 1-18. Dave McIntyre alluded to it on the commentary.
He must have done it twice so.
Iâve done it myself. I donât think itâs intentional but rules are rules.

Rory âGaffsâ Hearne is hopping
https://x.com/roryhearnegaffs/status/1790787623834804532?s=46&t=pBoz6vwJNpAFZhshXLNoZg
Is he what would termed in DĂĄil elections "a single issue candidate "? What influence would he have on housing policy from the EU? Is it just to get his name out there before a general election?

Rory is an alright sort.
I was thinking of giving him a vote. The list of candidates in the Midland North is very poor. I probably wouldnât put him in as a TD but a left leaning lad in Europe would be no harm. I knew him a bit in college and, agree with him or not, he is genuine in his beliefs. He used read left leaning literature on the bus to hurling matches

He used be associated with People before Profit or similar. Standing for the Social Democrats a move to the right for him.
Iâm in the same constituency and there doesnât seem to be many inspiring candidates so I was thinking heâd get some preference from me alright. Heâs not the worst of them, by a stretch
Had a look there. Some high level far right headbangers there actually - Barrett, Hermann Kelly, John Waters, etc.
His kids were in the same school as mine. Met him.around the birthday party circuit a bit. Doesnât take himself too seriously in real life and loves the hurling
Waterford originally?
Yeah. He lives or lived in Marino. Not sure why he is standing in North Midlands.
Maybe the Maynooth connection gets him in there ? 
Thats probably it.
