Question: That big black lad who played lock on one of the smaller school teams and is also a shot putter. Can't think of his name and I'm too lazy to go back and root around trying to find him. Anyone know if he is in leinster sub-academy or does he still have a year of school left?

Good shot putter not so good at rugby big isn't always good, don't think he is involved with Leinsteer or any other provinces

He still has a year in school I think? I didn't expect to see him in the academy but would like to see him in the sub-academy and maybe investing in for another bit before we call it quits on him.

Does anyone know why Andrew Porter wears quite so much strapping on his arms? I appreciate it's probably just precautionary but it is a lot.

Leinster u18 schools played Northampton on Monday in Donnybrook and lost 13-10.
Leinster u19 played Worcester yesterday and won 44-17.
Leinster u18 clubs play Northampton today in Donnybrook at 3pm.

No word on games for the Leinster u20/development squad, website is as usually not doing a good job at covering underage representitive sides.

Nope and the website seems to have no interest in covering the friendlies. Maybe that will change closer to the interpros.

Is Conor Nash confirmed? I can't seem to find any confirmation from the GAA or the AFL regarding his move.

Not confirmed officially. But he hasn't been with leinster or played GAA all summer afaik. Just a matter of time before he goes to Oz last I heard.
