On the subject of Wycherleys weight, I read an article a few weeks back from Duncan Casey I think who was talking about the size of young players and said Wycherley was 115Kgs. He doesn't look it but he might have a big frame. If he was 96kgs I don't think Munster would have taken him into the academy straight from school.
He came on against Treviso tonight. I payed close attention and to be honest he definitely looks 115kgs when comparing him to other players. Strong looking lad. We could do with a second row coming through!
Just watched highlights from the Munster game. O'Donoghue did very well for his try, some acceleration from a kneeling start! Sweetnam's try was well taken but looked liked a knock-on to me before he kicked it on.
But Zebo's behaviour (kissing the ball before dotting it down for a try) was just prickish.

I'm still on that. Have one of the front seats on it. Haven't seen too much of Wycherley to judge but carolan tipped him as a future international.

Here here. Am I correct in stating that there are currently 3 Southern Hemisphere locks on the Munster books? And that an offer was made to Ryan from Munster which he turned down in favour of the French option? Think there are only 2 locks on central contract and Ryan will be over 35 by the time the next world cup comes around. Cracking player, and probably one of very few Munster players I have coveted over the years but he's not getting any younger....

not at all, I have a massive amount of respect for him, I thought we should have tried to sign him years ago and I'd have him here in a flash no need to ask twice!
What those goobers can't admit is that Donnacha doesn't want to play for Munster anymore. He wants to play for us, and if he can't then France is the next best thing.

That's a personal issue isn't it? His girlfriend is Dublin based. AS you say, I'd take him in a heartbeat, he's a cracking player.

So nothing to do with wanting to play for us.
Mirror, Mirror on the Wall who's the greatest player of them all? It is Drico your majesty.
