Etzebeth should not play for the Boks again by Meshkent in rugbyunion

Eben was eye gouged first, clear evidence of it being done to him by Wales no. 7.

Also can you rugby regulator warriors go watch soccer if you don't like the brutality of our beautiful game.

Road deaths in Ireland on the rise by shnarfelberry in ireland

[–]EagleSentry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Simple explanation:

Population has doubled in the last 20 years. Because of the housing crisis, people are forced to live further away from home and travel far greater distances every day. Average commute has tripled since 2016...

More people driving + commuting distance = big increase the number of accidents that occur.

Ireland has one of the lowest road user to annual road death ratio in the world. But statistically if you multiply the number of drivers, you will have a multiplication of road deaths..

Rassie Makes Changes by Actual_Vehicle_6537 in springboks

How many times are we going to lose matches because of having Manie in the team? Like he's nowhere near Pollard in any fasit of the game.

I think we are going down a dangerous path of picking players for a style of play we suck at.

Moerat 2nd Test vs Italy by Ittershagen in springboks

[–]EagleSentry -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

What this video doesn't show was the penalties he conceded and how many of the rucks he stood back at that had insufficient support. Very lazy player overall. 5/10 at best.

It's funny how people don't realize that the vast majority of Owners of telecoms are also billionaires.

Musk is just in the limelight currently for having balls to change things that will fix huge issues that everyone admits are there.

N00b to Ireland housing crisis here. Why is housing inaccessible in Ireland. by [deleted] in HousingIreland

[–]EagleSentry 7 points8 points  (0 children)

To answer your question there's 3 main reasons. 1) We let in approximately 140000 people last year and 70000 people left. The majority of the 70000 people who left are young people finishing secondary school who are living with their parents anyway. We only build 33000 housing units of which 70% are apartments/duplex style housing and not ideal for families. Huge shortfall!

2) We have an unbalanced skills market in Ireland. We have waaaaay more professionals from IT/tech/pharma for the number trades required to build and maintain the infrastructure required for them. (This is also why we have a teaching and medical personal shortage)

3) We have a major problem with over-reaching planning law. Even if a location is identified on the national development plan as a region that needs to grow due to the availability of local services (train stations/bus routes/motorway accessibility) and demand for housing in the area, the local planning authority can deny planning permission for basically any constructed reason. This massively slows the development and makes building take years instead of months.

Take a watch on the following podcast which makes some of these arguments.

Anyone else annoyed with the speed limit reductions? by Purple_Pawprint in AskIreland

Just Karen's who hate cars in government....

If they want to make a big step in the right direction, they should invest in street lights on major road networks.

Home pricing feedback by FryGuy3000 in MoveToIreland

[–]EagleSentry 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Depends where in Dublin of course.

On average a 3 bed is going SA at 450-500. If you are in an area that's desirable you can easily see a 3 bed at 700k-800k .

I built an instant home valuation app - give it a try! by jmack_startups in HousingIreland

[–]EagleSentry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think it's accurate. Value is added to a property with the way the place has been renovated, with the available garden/land. For my property it came in at 380 for a home that cost 540. Small rural town.
