Who’d be more likely to get the coveted 6th outhalf berth at Munster: Jackson or Madigan

Just caught the very end of the documentary on Axel last night as the scene at the close struck me as very interesting.

It was the whole squad linking in the dressing room and singing Stand UP and fight.

I honestly wonder if they can recreate that passion with so many non Munster people in the squad now.

Its must be the same as asking Michaels lads to sing Rock Boys are we

It's a song. You join the team and sing the song. It's not citizenship!

South African by birth, Munster by the grace of Etihad.

I see O'Mahony bigging up the "incredible" Carberry today. It's started.

What did you honestly expect him to say? Carbery's a young chap starting in a key position for Ireland against Australia in Oz. Of course the captain is going to big him up as much as possible. Should he have said 'Ah look, I'd obviously prefer Johnny there but sure we are where we are'?

Good news, Agreement to pay off Thomond Pk in 69 years, reduction (of €1.6m) in large life support payment from IRFU and hints that they’ve realized that playing midweek touring sides is expensive.

They really are taking the whole south african/saracens model to heart.

If they'd listened to me back in 2007 then they'd be debt free by now, and not only debt free, but wallowing in their second lake of cash from renewed 10 year tickets. But I was told that the good times would never end, the debt would be lighter than a feathers fart, there'd be an autumn international every year (no matter what Aviva might say) and touring teams would queue up to give Munster big backs of cash for the honour of being allowed play them.

Now, they're just a less successful version of Saracens.

A cautionary tale.

[Dave Cahill]

A cautionary tale.

leaving aside "Munster, my part in their downfall" - it really is a tale of hubris

They were drunk on power and so relentlessly focused on the winning the battle in front of them that they abandoned any common sense.

They’re a bit more willing to play knockouts in Aviva though.

They got the "unique ethos" bit right.

And they say we're up on our own ass..

[RAILWAY1]

There are too many people in ALL the provinces who are so far up their own asses they can see daylight out the other end. Thankfully even though they are a fairly vocal minority the vast majority of rugby people in the provinces are interested only the game we all profess to love and even though we may slag each other off we have to have respect for each other

Probably from the same ''morkiting'' person that this shi*te came from

One thing came from a professional rugby team.

Another came from a group of fans with no connection to a professional rugby team save their support of it

I'll leave you all to guess which is which.
