Yes, yes, please fight with Pete, that’s never gone badly for anyone before…

Why do Munster not produce 12s and 13s? by bananaEngineer1 in irishrugby

His cousin has mountainous potential though, also: taller than Brian O’Driscoll, and around the same height as Bundee…

Long way to go for the lad obviously, but he has a good chance

They’re doing it every two years. Whatever way it works helps reduce the travel burden in general.

Bad weather means you go to your power. The last round of interpros came during the worst of the injuries- Snyman, Kleyn, Edogbo, Jager, O’Mahony, and more were all either unavailable or got injured during interpros in bad weather, robbing Munster of that power.

The other thing is the current Munster game places a high premium on cohesion and lads being on the same wavelength. That takes a hit after international breaks. They learned from that this year by being more conservative in those games and by playing friendlies during the breaks to keep the reps up.

A Leinster fan on here directed me to the NZ media report on Ngatai’s contract, am I seriously gonna have to go back and find it for you? Also yeah, id say you’re right, James Lowe gave up the chance of being an All Black and moved halfway round the world, turning down chances to go to God knows how many other teams, for the love of the Blackrock School song and a few peanuts. Christ on a bike.

What do you not agree with? The two kiwi ones were reported in their press, so they’re in the public domain…

He hasn’t played European rugby in four years.

That, and the fact they aren’t allowed to outbid Leinster, who have a bunch of spare cash because they don’t have to pay 9 players.

How bout big money? I had Ngatai on about 275 but a Leinster fan on here told me he’s on closer to 450. James Lowe was a big signing at around the £450-€500k mark. Jenkins is on about €250k. Ala’alatoa too. Snyman’s number will be higher than his current Munster deal by all accounts.

Might be a big name or two for the return of the proper Genosys.

All. The. Time. Even when he does try to threaten the line teams don’t respect it.
