Be nice to see a repeat of this with Sexton getting an earful this time.

Munster lost 0-12 to Chiefs last night.
Chiefs had a fairly strong side out.
TOD took a knock.

Re: Munster 2017 -2018
Lest Munster have any illusions having just gone down to one of the teams in their Pool, Castres are currently ahead by 13-25 in Montpelier in a repeat of the Top 14 Final.
Castres play with raw passion and brutal directness. Arguably even more passion and pride than Munster. A huge challenge ahead for the Reds.

Re: Munster 2017 -2018
They've recruited well too. Spedding and Yann David will add to that backline. Them Exeter and Munster will be a serious pashunfest.Ruckedtobits wrote:Lest Munster have any illusions having just gone down to one of the teams in their Pool, Castres are currently ahead by 13-25 in Montpelier in a repeat of the Top 14 Final.

Re: Munster 2017 -2018
Murray is out for a few weeks and Munster are seemingly hitting the panic button!

Unless there's another injury, seems strange to be going for a cover in a position they have four senior players already, plus two others in Stafford and Poland?

Surely they won't be allowed to sign another medical joker, where one really isn't required, right? Right?

32 year-old former NZ scrum-half who's on the books in Toulon at present. Last seen down under with Western Force.Dave Cahill wrote:"Munster" have signed Alby Mathewson on a "short term" contract.
Re: Munster 2017 -2018
That is hilarious!
Imagine what Williams and Hart are thinking!
So Munster’s backline could be Mathewson, Carbery, Earls, Taute, Farrell, Conway, Hayley
And the pack could be Kilcoyne, Marshall, Ryan, Kleyn, Beirne, POM, Cloete, Stander
Granted some are marginal calls but that’s literally four Munster men in their starting side!
I’m sure they all wear with pride and honesty though!

Sign another overseas player
Twitte r reporting that the Turnips have signed Alby Matheson on a short term deal
Somebody must have broken a lace
What is wrong with their 2 other scrum halves if their first choice is injured.
They couldnt be arsed developing the other two, easier to get the IRFU to stump uo for anothrr overseas
Its paathetic

Re: Sign another overseas player
We should insist that we're allowed to sign David Pocock to cover all our injured 7's.

Re: Sign another overseas player
Meanwhile, we're choosing between a 1st year academy out-half, an injured 2nd year academy centre and Noel fu*king Reid as our options at 10.
Oh the irony. Keep performing CPR on the corpse IRFU, but I regret to inform you that it is long since deceased.

Re: Munster 2017 -2018
How long is Murray out for? 3 or 4 weeks? A fiver says this interim super-short term lad will be eating Christmas dinner at the Strand hotel and a tenner says he'll be driving up the Wild Atlantic Way in the spring.
