The Official Munster Rugby Thread™

Munster hanging in there but will need at least 1 try to win this game and i just cant see where its coming from

Murray missed touch with a clearance even though Carbery was standing waiting and then kicks the ball away after Munster made their first line break since the 10th minute. He’s been slow at every ruck too, back to holding the ball before passing.

This is going to be worse than I thought Leinster are going to get the 5 points

Quinlan is an absolute dose to listen to.

 

[Coogee]

men against boys..even against their 2nd or third choice front 5 we didnt make an impact.

the likes of archer and scannell are miles off the pace.

Finnen wycherley hasn't kicked on either

no fight in them at all. Just seem happy to loose to Leinster all the time.

Murray has been finished for years but still here he is with his aimless box kicks

 

[nelly sham]

Munster have a big problem that’s there now a lot of mediocre, bang average, local lads that, as a club, they’ve been slow to shake off historically.

Nash, Scannells, Daly, not to mention Archer staying on.
Kendellen and Aherne is a bright light at least.

They need reinforcements of a required level.

Kleyn is missed hugely here too.

Jenkins has shat the course, I’d imagine he’ll look like a proper flat track bully in Dublin.

 

[nelly sham]

Leinster just gave away at least half a dozen penalties in about 5 mins there on their own line. Not even a warning!

 

[Coogee]

plenty guys like Josh Wycherley, Barron, Buckley, Knox, Aherne, Kendellen, Hodnett that should puch for first team next season

the problem as always will be the backline!

There is nothing in our back play . Crash , bang , wallop is all we seem to be able to do . Compare that to Leinster who have wrap around and loops .
We need a new backs coach badly , some one who can bring some kind of invention to them

Watching Henshaw and Ringrose dance rings around Farrell and DDA summed it up.
I’m not saying Farrell is at the same level as those two but he offers way more than “big man, run hard”. For what he was used for DDA has been a shocking waste of money. They used him to run an angle off a scrum last night and he went flying past the gain line. Ball gets recycled, Murray stands there and kicks it away with a shit kick. Infuriating.


Imagine, JVG was offered a 2 year extension as well! We owe him a massive thank you for fucking off really.

Healy has to start at 10 for me now, Haley is the full back incumbent, would like to see some wingers come in, maybe another centre , knowing Fekitoa is on the way, would still like to see someone a few levels above Scannell and Goggin.

Gallagher at full back is fine, he just needs a bit of consistent game time which he’s never put together.
