The Official Irish Rugby Thread 19/20.

[How bad boy]

ah missed that. Heard Kendellen was out alright.

Sure they might as well cancel the tour now that frawley is out. According to Andy Dunne on off the ball the whole tour was organised to give frawley more game time at 10!!..ffs OTB are some spoofers

I think it actually makes a lot of sense as a theory. And it wasn't just as 10, it was as a leader too. He's not going to get that chance with Leinster or Ireland with Sexton still hanging around.

ive watched a lot of Rugby in the last few years and I cant see what frawley has at 10 over the likes of Carberry, H Byrne, Carty and even R Byrne. I think he is a 12 who fills a gap at 10. Hope I'm proved wrong as Ireland need someone to step out from sextons shadow

Yeah, not getting this Frawley infatuation at all.
Scotland are doing something similar with Kinghorn and he's struggling. He's even struggling at Edinburgh never mind international.

Saw the Emerging Ireland team and I still can't get my head around Balacoune being there and not in the Irish camp proper.

Commentary has dropped in Belfast. Absolute bliss.
Jackman is some dose to listen to.

 

[Hank Scorpio]

Decent second half.

 

[How bad boy]

So emerging Ireland can thrash a second rate South African side.

Good.

Didn't see the match, was there anything of value learned? Presumably not against shit opposition
