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
England A 8 - 14 Ireland A, 25th Jan 2014
Ruddock(c) 19/2 Tackles

It's a very Leinster-y side alright. 11 Leinster Academy graduates and one former Leinster project player in the starting XV.fourthirtythree wrote:That's a, how should I say it? That's an entertaining looking side...

Is Joe going to let them off the lead?

Re: Ireland 2018/2019
17 of the 23 are Leinster/ex-Leinster players.
Not a healthy situation from an Ireland perspective.
Imagine if the other provinces had their act together too?
That's the masterplan I suppose, but its going to take a while.

Re: Ireland 2018/2019
Thats a really exciting team. My only surprise is that Larmour is at 15 instead of Conway. Sooo looking forward to this now

Re: Ireland 2018/2019
Its great as a Leinster fan to see so many of a squad selection either Leinster players or connections to here. It is not so good from an Irish point of view, we have 4 teams that all operate at a decent level and are sufficiently funded. It's easy to point to Munster and the Saffer/Leinster squad, but that is only one symptom not the illness. You have to step back and look at IRFU's structures.
Dont get me wrong - it is super for Leinster to be where we are and Ireland to be genuine contenders to the No.1 spot. I just think that some changes could make this a more sustainable level for Ireland.
Edit : Scratch that - Friday morning worries move to Friday afternoon gung-ho bring on the weekend vibe. Leinster are fighting on 2 fronts this week end -most of the team in the USA and pro 14 in South Africa but still many of our big names being rested - some bloody achievement for Leinster.

He talked for about 2 and a half minutes uninterrupted during a break in play and I honestly don't know what he started talking about.

Re: Ireland 2018/2019
Conway had a very annonymous day, but lots of excellent performances from the rest of the team. Ringrose, Beirne, VDF & Porter really stood out for me.

The fake beard fools no one.
James Lowe is having a great game at 13 for Italy.
