Don't think it was McGinty, I think it was a big second row in there for some reason. He did dummy, and the rules are the rules. Ref had already called 'advantage over' from the advantage he was playing for Rock for a couple of minutes.true blue 06 wrote: at 10-7 to rock, rock had an advantage uner the cwc posts, mcginty , the rock 9 got penalised for a dummy at the ruck, rock never got the ball back from this and it led to the cwc kick. i dont really understand the rule, the rock players seemed a bit bemused too

Re: Leinster Senior Cup 2008
monkstown 30-3 st.michaels
cbc were bigger better stronger . michaels were blown off the park by the ref but monkstown fully deserve it, hope they win it. felt very sorry for noel reid, he gave it his all and outhalf was one of few positions where michaels were better. fair play to cbc though

Re: Leinster Senior Cup 2008
Ah now true blue the ref was harsh on both teams!!
Micheals became desperate as the second half progressed, hence giving away more penalties.

Re: Leinster Senior Cup 2008
CBC beat Michaels around today. As trueblue said they were bigger and stronger than Michaels. Michels never recovered from the three try blitz early on. Some sublime offloads and general play from CBC, could have scored more. I was most impressed with the defence, didn't concede when Michaels threw everything at them. Michaels tried to play but couldn't get anything going. Feel sorry for them, they were a better team than they showed today.
Will be hard to repeat that against Marys, but if they play like that in every game they would win it no doubt.

Re: Leinster Senior Cup 2008
dont get me wrong, cbc were far far better and i said at the start of the cup i hope they would win it if michaels couldn't but there was a huge penalty count against us... it doesn't really make a difference though, monkstown fully deserved it, fair play to them.
no 13, foley is it?? some player, noone was brilliant too

Re: Leinster Senior Cup 2008
Can people please put the results/comments in spoilers so those of us hoping to watch the match on Setanta can enjoy it without knowing the result
Anyway - some performance by CBC, best team I've seen in the competition to date. Foley looks like an excellent prospect alright. Have to say (from the TV) that I didn't think the ref was penalising Micheals unfairly - they were under so much pressure that they were forced into mistakes or commiting fouls.

Re: Leinster Senior Cup 2008
the cohesion and fludity was incredible, they willl steamroll marys (who were fortunate to win by so much yesterday)
where has this team come from? did they import players? ive heard of foley , grannell and the 7 foot 8 ivers before but the rest?
i cant see anyone stopping them now, they have the taste for it now, i mean to beat michaels so comprehensively
wow league and cup both in a season - has that been done before?

i think its fantastic that cbc have done so well, but their main enemy now is getting carried away with the victory, enjoy tonight and get back to training 2moro. do u seriously think cbc will dismantle marys as easily as dey did micheals?
Re: Leinster Senior Cup 2008
Michael Noone came from Pres Bray last year I think. From what I gather he moved to Pres from a different school before that. He's not really an import in the Blackrock College sense, CBC's princpal is not the most pro rugby man going and any guy entering the school in an interview can do well not to mention rugby. So no scolarships or pursuit of players. He played for Seapoint along with about 10 others of the team so was good mates with them all before he came. I think he applied a few times in a row and finally got in.true blue 06 wrote:oh no where do we go! wrote:the cohesion and fludity was incredible, they willl steamroll marys (who were fortunate to win by so much yesterday)

The rest have been there from 1st year, they were favourites at JCT level going unbeaten so not really a suprise about their performance. They lived up to the hype this week but in the next round they're gonna have to play with that much intesity. Everyone will be after them now but I hope they do it.
Re: Leinster Senior Cup 2008
I thought Monkstown were superb. I think they will wipe the floor with Marys who looked mediocre to me. I cant see anyone stopping that pack. They will have massive support if they get to the final. Surely anyone who went to a school outside the big six must have enjoyed seeing Michaels being hammered. I felt sorry for the Michaels lads but it was men against boys really.
For anyone like me, who went to an "average" rugby school it was a good day. Heres to Monkstown and hopefully they can go all the way
