UCD face an up-hill struggle to survive Div1 this year. Any other leinster teams going to anything? Clontarf seem in good nick, could well get play-offs. Lansdowne to fade again as the season wears on? Will we have to endure another munster club dominated season?

Probably.....

Clontarf for the top 4 anyway.... then c~*k up. I'm gonna leg it before CRAZYDAVE catches me.

I reckon UCD will be ok. They still have a decent enough squad and there are much weaker teams in Division 1.

i hope we find those weaker teams soon! Our big loss was eoghan hickey, who now ranks alongside kidney for treachorous acts against rugby teams i support, cos we just dont have someone to replace him it seems. I might get a call up yet

I think some of the goys on the 20's could get called up to UCD's firsts. Plenty of talent especially in the backs

i have often thought of collidge as being a microcosm of leinster rugby, and so it is. How are the ucd20's doing tcf, havent heard anything about them. What club do you play for?

UCD. The 20's look really good. The backline for the firsts is something special.

enjoying his ice baths, pre-hydration and weigh-ins?

I miss the free powerades, although free beer with the J2's is much better

Those bloody ice baths. They're fcoking horrible. Haven't had one in a while though cause i've been out injured. The free Powerades make up for it though.

Barnhall are going well on top of Div.2

Only for a defeat away to Greystones where they were the better team by far throughout and should have won only for too many silly mistakes they'd have a 100% record.

Still, I dread to think what could happen to them in Div. 1 next year if they win promotion!
