    Irish Provincial Structure

    I always ask the question was Ben Healy wedded to wearing tartan? If there was a decent living to be made as no 2 behind Crowley could he have stayed and fought it out ?

    Irish Provincial Structure

    But it doesn’t have to be taking from the rich and giving to poor analogy. The reason this contract for Barrett has been met with so much disgust and rage is that under no circumstances is it needed! I’ve no issue with a 1-23 lads from Leinster winning season after season as they have been for a...

    Irish Provincial Structure

    Yes. No differentl But the point is currently Leinster, due to 10 central contracts can afford to offer him say 100k. (Spitball finger in the air ). He can say yes or go abroad. Other provinces can’t outbid. Because that would be mental wage inflation. But Munster spending same 100k on a...

    Same. Deegan is a serious athlete but yes you’d have to question the drive if he’s just happy to not make a move at this point

    Irish Provincial Structure

    Ultimately it’s getting enough athletes of a decent standard between ages of 14-18. And providing enough S and C and top level coaching. And then ensuring that they’re in a cohort where those skills are tested on a daily basic. Unless you can get a boarding school to take 20+ lads each year...

    Irish Provincial Structure

    Cork Limerick road has far more to do with the attendances than anything. Fan base is honestly everywhere. The amount of gaa guys (and gals)who would genuinely be watching all Munster’s matches across all the 6 counties is high. Building a regular attending supporter has far more to do with...

    Irish Provincial Structure

    provinces work because they aren’t artificial constructs like the regions etc. And definitely there should be as many ulster guys in an ulster squad and so on However What should never happen is a player who is 3rd or even 4th choice at one province is happy to stay put when two other...

    Transfers rumours

    Lads were honestly forgetting this is a career for guys. A brutal painful dangerous one given the risks of brain injury. Player will try to play u20 wherever to make the breakthrough. Hasn’t really worked out I terms of getting further English caps but with bundee aging and henshaw injury...

    Transfers rumours

    Hey muff Are we looking at NIQ or IQ options for Frisch? Any hope of cover at Loosehead ? Challenging scenario re Pom. Definitely top5 of our best players of all time but definitely can see the other side of Munster getting stumped for a bill if it’s only to recuperate him after Ireland...
