I think we will get the subs back, theyre pros not degenerates like the rest of us who will be drinking medical grade alcohol decanted from hand sanitizer because its too slippy to walk to the shops

I saw pictures of them drinking Stella

The Indo report suggests McGrath will be ready for this game but Ruddock and SOB won't.

Is JGP injured?

[Lar]

Don't think so but he can't play if Lowe and Fardy do.

[mildlyinterested]

last JGP was seen was going off injured against Southern Kings.

Don't see why.

1. He may not be released.
2. He hasn't trained with Leinster in over a month.

Am I right in thinking this is only being broadcast live on S4C?

[cormac]

All IRFU officials this weekend. The Ospreys fans will be chuffed.

Would you have preferred that Byrne came on for Sexton against England rather than Byrne?

has no relevance to Leinster's game this weekend.

At some point Carbery has to get a run at 10; regardless of how Ross is going. Keeps everyone on their toes, gives Carbery gametime, increases options. I was of the opinion (and note Drico was too .. so it's not mad) that Joey would be better at 15. However, I actually think time in Camp Joe is improving Joey's 10 game. Not that he wasn't already an excellent 10 but even in the short cameo's v England, to me at least there had been an improvement in his decision making and option taking. It would be good to see Joey v Ospreys. I mean who would people like to see bench v Sarries - Ross or Joey?

Agree entirely. The guy has closed out and made important contributions to Ireland's two most important Test matches in the last year and a half. I think Leo and Stu would be mad not to start him vs the Ospreys. I think he more than deserves his chance. Previous to this, they said he was playing 15 and not 10 due to injuries to other squad members. That rational no longer applies, as far as I can see.

TBH I would never dismiss the relevance of recent exposure to international experiences or indeed Joe Schmidt's coaching systems.
However each to his own.

Funny THAT, didn't you recently agree with a post about how 'working with Joe is of little benefit from a Leinster perspective'?

I doubt it but if it's the post and poster I think you are referring to then you should know by now that a large grain of salt might be involved.
I would concede, however, that I might have been guilty of using the lowest form of wit.
