Ben O Connor i was told that when he signs for the Munster acedemy he must play with a limerick club team. Is that correct. Best of luck to Munster tomorrow hope to see it in Dublin on my way down from Navan.

Yeah. I think they want all signings plus academy lads in Limerick.
John Ryan had just built a house in Cork and was told by JVG to move to Limerick apparently

How does Cork Con put up with that ruling or is it a case of pay up and we will shut up.

I'm surprised RG isn't staring
Maybe the 2 concussions ?
Tough on Fineen but delighted foe Earlsie

Reports are the pitch is a disaster. Potentially good news for Munster on two fronts, it makes scrummaging much harder, neutralising their scrum somewhat and it slows their speedsters out wide.


Would still have Stormers as 5 point favourites but definitely a big chance

I feel there is only 1 side today under pressure, it is not Munster.

I don't know I view it the other way. It could possibly be the last chance for the likes of POM, Earls and Murray to win a trophy with Munster. You could say that given the start they had to the season that they are in bonus territory but I think they will be acutely aware that this is a huge opportunity.
The Stormers on the other hand, how much pressure is there really on a team to win back to back titles? They won the competition in their first season, to get to a second final in as many seasons I think is a more accurate representation of bonus territory.

I just hope Munster don't seize up like they did against Leinster in the final a few years ago. I hope they give it a proper go this time.

To the brave and the faithful, nothing is impossible

Abysmal pass from Frisch, shame because that was a good start

 

[PROCNA2018]

2 advantages disappeared. But the pass was never on
