There's been little discussion of this, and it's good to see it finally being aired.

This is the key bit in the article, and something that was obvious 20 years ago before the Limerick myth building got fully underway....

Fuck me, it only took them 20 years to figure out that 50% of 100 is bigger than 100% of 30.

Those % for attendance he's throwing out fail to mention that most of the population of County Clare live within 30 minutes of Thomond Park. For all the talk about "Limerick" rugby, it's as much Clare.

Even then though, Limerick and Clare combined is only about 2/3 the population of Cork.

It's about time that they released those numbers as it seemed to be that way for so long.
It's a right kick in the arse to Limerick anyway who feel they own Munster Rugby

La Rochelle lost away to Pau and so miss out on the Top 14 playoffs. Is Rog in a bit of trouble ? TBF they won their previous 5 but there's a Spurs vibe about it...

Not following it closely but he seems to be banned every other week too

Cork supporters should really force the issue by refusing to travel to that shit heap that looks like a fanny

But but but tis the "spiritual home" of Munster Rugby.

Finally copping on to the fact that we are a Provincial team and not just a Limerick City one.
If only the clue was in the name.

With the RDS out of commission and Leinster having a lot of big crowds this season, suspect there's a fatigue that has set in, especially against a Glasgow side who have been fairly shite in recent months.

Would expect a big crowd for the final

Par for the course in France. I think his project over there has reached its end naturally. He talked about this season and next being a rebuild. He's going to lose some big players over the next two players if he stays on.
