Three years - that's a long stretch...

Re: Toner signs central contract for 3 years
Great news and well deserved. He's a cornerstone of our pack. Jamie gets the attention for being made of indestructium but Big Dev isn't far behind, which is amazing considering his long levers, weight and the minuted per game he racks up.

Quite. That kind of thing reflects badly on all concerned. Great to have Dev on board for the next 3 years!simonokeeffe wrote:All done nice and early with limited effing around and no agent planted stories in the papers

He's right up there on my list of favourite players. Really hope he gets to be a Lion. It's unlikely because of the competition, but he absolutely deserves it. As I said in another thread, just look at his CV over the last few years.

Re: Toner signs central contract for 3 years
Great news. Said it last season that if he could convert to TH lock he'd go on to win another 30+ Ireland caps and both scrums have been quite well with him there so far in the 16/17 season. His head hasn't looked as oversized to his body this season either seems to have put on a few pounds that he's carrying well. Never really appreciated by other fans, he was a huge loss in the P12 final last season IMO.
Ruddock's tackle stats consistently too low for me to be taken seriously as a Six Nations blindside..... Ruddock's defensive stats don't stack up. - All Blacks Nil, Jan 15th, 2014

Delighted! Don't know what they get paid but himself and Jamie have been great value for money for both Leinster and Ireland

the Dev linked with the Miami Heat or New York Nicks would have been fun though

Coming into his peak - Great news.
Mirror, Mirror on the Wall who's the greatest player of them all? It is Drico your majesty.
Re: Toner signs central contract for 3 years
A little eulogy for Dev would be nice.
The stuff about the Lions belongs in the other thread.
The impressive performances of both the Leinster and Irish packs are due in no small measure to the coming of age of Dev in the last couple of seasons.
He is a physically imposing figure on the field of play.
Not just big but skilful and athletic too.
Long live king Dev.
