I think people will stand up and applaud when he scores the winning try.

That would be my plan anyway.

I'd like Joe to pull him out of the game with 10 mins to go so the crowd can clap him off, but that's about as far as I'd go.

This just has back 5 injury written all over it.
30 Mins D'Arce to go down, McFadden on.
70 Mins our last sub Marty Moore comes on to replace BOD.....?

Just move Healy to 12 and push McFadden to 13 and you are sorted.

Now there is an experimental lineup.

Would a chant of "One more year" be out of place tomorrow?
You know I'm going to lose,
And gambling's for fools,
But that's the way I like it baby, I don't want to live FOREVER!

I've heard there will be a presentation after the match to him. Fine with that once the game is done.

Apparantly that's why the ladies aren't allowed to warm-up on the pitch and have to use the back pitch.

It would be great if the old Waltzing O'Driscoll song could get going. Perhaps on 13 minutes 13 seconds after the 2nd lineout of the 2nd half. Organically of course.
I'd imagine it will be a sustained applause followed by chants of "SIT DOWN!"

Does anyone seriously think Brian O'Driscoll wants or would appreciate a minute of sustained applause on the 13 minute or a half assed rendition of ffing waltzing O' Driscoll????? Mother of God! :evil:
Seriously he is playing a match. That's all he, or any of the players will give a flying fock about. I'd say he cant stand all the slightly hysterical fuss and shite thats been built up around this. Let him play his game, cheer everything he does. :happy clapper: Massive standing ovation when the game is over. :happy clapper: Job done.

Any prearranged/timed chant is going to just be naff...

Damn you Dave Cahill :cry:

Too many ticketmaster fans to get a chant going in LR
Last home (league) game v Edinburgh might be a better chance

Just checked something out, of his 140 Internationals, 2, yeah 2, were off the bench
and 5th highest point scorer of all time which aint bad for a non kicker

Don't you mean that the ladies will be warming Down on the back pitch?
Just because a post upsets you, that doesn’t mean that it is wrong. People have different views in all aspects of life, this is a key ingredient to an interesting conversation.
