They're actually not in Dublin all the time, ladies used to play in Ashburn and the 20's in Athlone a lot, it just so happens though that donnybrook is the perfect size, great pitch and conveniently located to maximise potential viewing public
They're in Dublin all the time now, so they are. I think what they're trying to acheive is a rugby weekend experience type thing. U20s, Women and Men (and eventually U20s Women) all in the same city on the same weekend.
Bit of work to do to get buy in from the fans though.
You know I'm going to lose,
And gambling's for fools,
But that's the way I like it baby, I don't want to live FOREVER!
Keith Earls Rugby Players Ireland Player of the Year.
Fair play to the man, my favourite Munster player by a long way.
Should stick in the game after he retires. By his own admission he suffered from lots of self doubt, made some big mistakes and had dreadful injuries runs at what was supposed to be his peak years. But this season he is playing his best ever rugby, lost none of his pace or agility and has all that experience to add to his game now. A great role model for the likes of Stockdale and Larmour to follow.

Deserves a good World Cup run, shame the next lions is probably a season too late although stranger things and all that
Subject to a work permit and medical clearance, the 26-year-old — who can play as a flanker and at number eight — will join Munster for the 2018-19 season
That's IRFU code for "drug test".

They have 4 Saffers in the senior squad (+ Stander), and another 2 in the academy, + their coach. They're giving Saracens or Montpellier a run for their money for number of South Africans!
