Hum ho. Between Rock, Clongowes and Micks now.
Not sure what you mean by that. If it's that the Terenure backs weren't good enough to carry their pack, I think yesterday proved your point. If it's that they didn't have a good enough backline to win it [given an equal footing up front in a hypothetical scenario] I'd disagree.

I'd disagree with Darce about him looking like a backrow in the centre, for me he was trying to look too much like a back. He was looking to show off his passing/offloading skills (which he does have imo) too much instead of just using his size and going full throttle into the opposition. I definitely think he's shown enough and has the tools to deserve a place in the academy, I'm no longer convinced that he'll make it after that though.
Dardis made some basic errors (that he didn't make last year) but he really is a sensational talent.
Aside from that, thought Terenure just made too many basic errors and needed a better ten to control things. I said this after the first game and think it even more so now that the biggest problem was chopping and changing players in terms of selection, I don't think they knew what their best team was. They didn't look like a particularly cohesive unit clued into the gameplan which is a bit ridiculous at this stage of the season. Last year they looked very well drilled and knew exactly what they were doing, but that seemed to have deserted them in open play this year.

21-13 to Michaels. Looks between them and Rock. When's the draw for the semi's?

I think it is at half time of the Leinster Scarlets game Sat

I like the look of that Michaels tight five and their half backs
