[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Ulster is the best Irish team anyway.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Is it me or are all the starters from teams that failed to make a domestic semi?

Bar Sexton and AWJ.

 

[Groundhog]

Falklands belong to the Irish

 

[Groundhog]

Nope Leinster made a semi

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

First you want the top bit of your country now you want our islands.

Stop being greedy.

 

[Groundhog]

I want the Isle of Man too **** it.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Get your grubby hands away from the TT.

 

[Groundhog]

Had my grubby hands on your ma's TTs last night.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Like it a lot
Hopefully George gets enough game time pre-tests to show why he should be at least in the 23, if not starting hooker.

Makes sense it's the non-semi players as they had an extra week training together

What nationality where they?

i mean did she see your spongebob legs?

do you think they would like this lions team? Is that better @TRF_Olyy

 

[TRF_Olyy]

On topic please...

 

[Groundhog]

Fiiiiiine Olyy.
I can see the logic now in trying to get Sexton clicking before the big boy games get going, but anything more than 40 minutes would be a pretty dangerous idea here. Not much to debate on selections otherwise as it's not a test team, but a team capable of playing a good style and starting the tour with a bit of a try fest for the fans to get our hopes up. Numbers 4-8 have me fairly fluffy. I hope AWJ really takes Henderson under his wing. With Deysel going north next year Henderson should be fully rooted to that second row and some AWJ dog is exactly what that fella and Ulster need. (My legs remind people of a horse's effortless grace). That back three has looooovely balance too. Someone remind me when I'll be able to see this?
