The Official Irish Rugby Thread

[nelly sham]

I was reading up on the Irish women's team there.

Their captain is 22, born in Australia to English parents who she then moved to Doha with.

She has 4 caps for Ireland and no appearances for her club (Old Belvedere).

And she's the captain of the Irish national team?

She's only minding it for Dorothy Wall anyway. She some player.

Poor old Aoife Waver had a poor game today, regardless of her injury history

There seems to be a lot of that kind of thing in the women's game

Bordeaux 30 - 15 Toulouse

I didn't think the gap would be that big. Dupont got a yellow in the second half too, he doesn't seem the same player at all this year.

LBB, Jalibert, and erm, Poirot march on into a semi final against Bath.

It's a complete jokeshop. All with their hands in the greasy till.

Ruadhri O'Connor is semi-bullish on the chances of Jack Willis coming to Ireland.

He reckons that Ben Willis moving to France next seasons suggests that neither of them want to play for Borthwick.

Be some feckin coup if that was to happen

I'd be completely opposed to such a move (unless of course he ends up at Munster, in which case top o' the morning to ya Jacko).
