Leinster 6 - 30 Munster

[murph277v]

2 hieniken cups is .. if i am right is better than one.. @ iceblue1000 did you say landsdown road is the home of rugby .. one city boy .. limerick .. and dont try to come back with something like stab city .. its a bit fuckin old

[BanjoMan1916]

@murph277v As a Cork man i can safely say youre right. the rugby in limerick is something special. no fuckin class divide like dublin. everyone playin for the red of munster

[murph277v]

@BanjoMan1916 just look at the underage , north munster are always the best at underage, someone once said to me walse and munster are the inky 2 places in the world where rugby is not confined to the upperclasscitizen

[BanjoMan1916]

@murph277v thats the problem i think with leinster. i dont think its upper class in connacht either. in cork its kinda inbetween. like the two main rugby schools are private but a lot of those pupils got scholarships. most of the players playin are from the country

[murph277v]

@BanjoMan1916 im in a public school and we live for the junior rugby,when we played limerick cbs,it was the far from posh,we played thwm in the middle of a housing estate not to far away from southhill,munster have a lot of rising talent,it will be hard not to geet a couple od world class players from the underage players in years to come

[mowag123]

Ye we beat harlequins with a crippled fly half a win is a win in 2008 you only bet saracens by 2 points and toulouse by 3.

[urfadder]

Revenge = Sweet.

[iceblue1000]

Hope it doesnt,want a challenge next time but I am gonna enjoy my holidays this summer with my friends from cork.Yea hernandez turned down english teams to sign from stade and thats why they pulled the plug on jackson deal.I know jackson is 33 but I would have prefered him because I want sexton to get a chance.

[paddysmuc]

ill believe all this when i see it..if all those signings go through then leinster might finally have a gud team.. this argument have drifted far from the point.. gud luck to leinster in the final!! munster 4 ever

[iceblue1000]

It's sad to know that so many munster fans will be cheering on Leicester in the final.Before the match they were the most respected team in club rugby.After the game their fans behaved like thugs,during the game their players behaved like thugs and now they have no respect

[paddysmuc]

do leinster deserver respect... friends of mine studying in dublin were refused tickets to the game by their club because of where their from... great sportsmanship on their behalf i must say... stick to dubes and tracksuits what you know best

[iceblue1000]

U have no choice now,we aint just got respect,we got your fear,we battered ye! and your friends must have been from munster,trying to get tickets from leinster clubs. Your fans aint welcome back anymore to dublin,the home of irish rugby

[paddysmuc]

lad it was a derby.. anything can happen.. you had 1 good game all season in the HC... that doesnt cancel 10 years history of prob the second most dominant team in the HC ever... leinster losing to castre and wasps two teams struggling in their own leagues and narrowly beating a team with a crippled outhalf.. dublin home of rugby I think not.. look at the Irish squad dublin have 3 players and limerick with one tenth of the pop have 5.. stick to what you know dubes and tracksuits

[paddysmuc]

and thats my point my friends are from munster and they play for clubs in leinster.. they all start 4 the team while the dublin subs got to go to the game.. disgrace.. dublin clubs are made up of munster players... hence 2006 munster dominated the crowd.... aswell dont get me wrong leinster 100% deserved to win.. but no way in hell deserve a final

[iceblue1000]

We had an away game at harlequins where we put in a great game.I am not from dublin,so I couldnt care less about how many players dublin have in the irish squad.Munster struggled in the group stages big time.They beat montauban by 2 points at home!They lost in clermont.U need to take off your blinkers.Leinster are a better side and will only get better.The average age on saturday between the 2 teams differed by 3 years.We have reddan,ross,casey and hernandez coming in and gonna dominate

[paddysmuc]

u called dublin the home of rugby goin back on you words.. by struggled in the group do you mean finished on top. we had a poor game against montauban, (who are ahead of castre in the top 14) otherwise it was pretty flawless. leinster struggled with an another easy draw. u are right there are some old players on the munster. but they are playing well. as for signings expect some pretty good ones from munster...also clermont are one of the best teams in europe.. do your homeworks b4 commenting

[iceblue1000]

it is the home of rugby,lansdowne road,rds.Clermont are 4th in the french league,hardly one of the best teams in europe!Montauban are 8th.Castre have a higher ranking than both in the european rankings!As for munsters signings,your coach said last week that munster are already overstretched and by retaining warwick,players will leave before any come in.Leinster will dominate for many years to come

[paddysmuc]

what use is rankings when the table will show current form.. sale were unbeaten when munster beat them away.. clermont are superb.. althoug they did not have the best season.. I did hear munster were signin a new player.. didn hear that interview.. heard jackson is all but signed 4 lein n never notin about hernandez.. feel your bein a bit obtimistic..leinster are exxxtremely lucky to be where they are.. enjoy it while you can.. aint gona cum round this easily again..

[jonconlon]

Had to be done or else we'd be outnumbered like 2006 because of all the country folk living in Dublin, might have left a bitter taste but was good that Leinster were looking out for themselves, their fans and their team.

[bicyclesauce]

what an idiot clares not bigger than limerick. I dont see how this whole rivalry even stands, because i live in leinster and i dont know anyone who doesnt cheer on munster in all their matches, unless they're playing leinster. the whole country was delighted when munster won both their heineken cups

[Dunnooooo123]

Fair play if you do support Munster being from Leinster, but I go to a large Dublin School and most of the guys in there apart from the few that like the ethos in Munster, find it hard to admit that Munster are a good team. Even when they won their second Heineken, before Leinster beat them this year...

[andrewucc]

ATHENRY IS NOT IN MUNSTER

[theirishneilers]

Most leinster fans acknowledge Munster's achievements and freely admit that the heineken cup is a better win than the Magner's League.They never call Munster shit, but there may be accusations of boring rugby.I am a leinster fan and I think Munster are a great team, why can't you do the same the same for leinster or at least acknowledge their acheivements.Most leinster fans do this for Munster, so why don't you show some decency

[laury1507]

u won d magners league fairplay

[goodboy09]

shut up we use it anyway stop tryingto ruin or song

[Blaaland88]

you'd kno that theirishneilers was a D4 head nyways "Heino cup" lol.

Munster are a better, more balanced team overall and if you had been watching any of their games you would have realised that the munster backline is everybit as entertaing as leinsters ie. Howlett, Tipoki, Mafi legends the lot of them

[amyojh]

HAHA c'mon MUMNSTER!!!!!!ireland by birth MUNSTER by the grace of god!!!!ha leinster r shite!!

[amyojh]

HAHA c'mon MUMNSTER!!!!!!ireland by birth MUNSTER by the grace of god!!!!ha leinster r shite!!

[diecrazyfrog]

basically, munster have class act players all over the pitch. they focus on heineken cup and do well in that, and leinster play crap in heineken but are better than munster in magners. im english, but love the irish way of life and the people.

[janecoleman3]

Best fans in Ireland in any sport!who outside Dublin support Leinster?I was in Dublin day we won the heineken cup and all the other provinces in Leinster were supporting Munster,not just that day but all the way through the competition. Munster have by far played the better rugby this season and as for the comment about only using our pack where have u been,have u not seen tipoki and mafi?Not to forget getting dougie howlett,prolific player in middle of his career.

[lilgirly911]

your a sad sad leinster supporter.. we have the silver ware so get over it and acknowlege us for the team we are... AMAZING!

[theirishneilers]

leinster r way better than munster!fair enough u won da heino cup but was well over a year ago.last season both teams got to the same stage in the heino cup and leister finsihed 3 places above them in the magners league.leinster play slick, entertaining, expansive backline rugby while munster grind out wins with boring tactics(forward pick and drive, ronan o'gara kick) and thats about it.leinster have won more than double the amount munster have in head to head matches! so suck it!

[updrebles]

you're utterly clueless,,,,,i feel sorry for you : (

[limerickandproud]

11 years overacheiving----- munster.... we dont give a fuck about Leinster because ye are a shower of useless cunts!!

[DarthHK47]

Munster will win it again this year. The only team who can stand against us are TOulouse. The Heineken Cup is the main competition and Leinster play shit in it.

Munster all the way!!!!!!!!!

Rog, Strings, Axel, Dougie, the whole lot of them, they are all legends.

[kiwicoachire]

they are all bottlers in their chinos,come on leinster

[chublets]

y do munster sing that song when its about athenry (connought).im not complainin,jst sayin...

[andrewucc]

you're right. most munster fans have come outta the woodwork last few years and dont know geography or history, making them perfect rugby fans

[klehtun]

i dont know much about the club, but the crowd singing that tune is spine-tingling!

[kevinwhorgan]

its the province of munster,its no mere club!

[GASTOU63]

VERY GOOD ! ! ! ! ! !

[celtic912]

I'll be the first to represent the US in the way in should be represented...

COME ON MUNSTER!!!!!!

[andrewucc]

fk munster , what would you know?

[AodhODuinn]

When you claim to be from munster, I dont believe you are, because if you were you would know that theres is not a select group of rugby followers in munster as in Leinster. Everyone supports. To call munster west brit??? The most anti-brit province in Ireland throughout history.

[andrewucc]

Can you read what I said? You're confused.

[andrewucc]

I called munster supporters wannbe west brits

[Dedicednu]

Just to point out that not all Americans are that ignorant.

The Irish in me may be very small but I still love that song.

[AodhODuinn]

True, all nations have dim wits, the only difference is that US dim wits also have arogence. Dim wits in ireland generally try to hide it by stayin quiet. Andrew is just a parrot.

[Dedicednu]

True. And our crappy education system doesn't help either.

[andrewucc]

I am sure your astute and in depth analysis will make you a fortune if you can put it in a book. Good luck with that.

[andrewucc]

You couldnt find Ireland on a map mate. Least of all Athenry.

[Dedicednu]

That's exactly the attitude that makes people hate Americans. I'm glad the expansive knowledge you own can say exactly what I know and do not know.

I'll share with you something I learned from other countries...

Piss off you arrogant twat.

[AodhODuinn]

not the fields of home or the fields of connaught, but the fields of athenry. a small town land in galway. Its location is in significant. Can a mayo person sing this song? Yes but they are not from galway or athenry. connaught is in Ireland making the song an Irish song about the famine which effected the entire island of Ireland but mostly connaught and munster. therefore munster sing this beautiful song as a simble of rising against oppression.

[andrewucc]

NO Munster fans sing this song because they are jumping on the bandwagon of "success." Still though, go ahead and tell me about oppression and the famine again and again. Its the fields of Athenry!!!! Not the sewers of Limerick.

[AodhODuinn]

you are scum, you dont understand this song, its a beautiful song,and its great to hear a crowd sing it who really understand its meaning. Why do you hate muster people, always a proud people, the people who won independence for the 26 counties.

[andrewucc]

I made a factual assertion. That does not infer hate for anybody or a dislike of anything...other than Munster rugby langers.

[AodhODuinn]

No you gave your opinion.Not a fact. And in my opinion your an idiot who heard some west brit prick make a comment and you decided to repeat it.,

[andrewucc]

Munster Rugby fans are wannabe West Brits.

[tomirish15]

How dar u. u english irish faget

Come on Munster!!!!

[andrewucc]

nice spelling - beatch

[AodhODuinn]

True, all nations have dim wits, the only difference is that US dim wits also have arogence. Dim wits in ireland generally try to hide it by stayin quiet. Andrew is just a parrot.

[andrewucc]

Name calling? That's one way to prove your smarts. Im Irish by the way. From Munster too. I ,love that song too. I just think that Munster fans are parroting a well known and beautiful song about Connacht because they know no better.

[AodhODuinn]

Your a munster man who claims to be from the US and you hates people from munster. I will reconfirm to you that the fields of athenry is not a song about connaught(not Connacht). It is about athenry, which is in galway, which is in connaught, which is in Ireland.

[kiwicoachire]

Munster r panzies and passibly d ugliest crowd ever

[AodhODuinn]

Seriously fool, dont dig any deeper. The song is not about a province, it is about the famine which was most severe in the west of Ireland, It is about rising against opression, munster and conaught are close when it comes to history. Anyway the man who wrote the song in question is from dublin, so your whole argument is fatally flawed.

[andrewucc]

You have just disproved your own point by referring to Dublin.

The fans are singing about the fields of home...the fields of Connaught!!!

The reason is that most are just bandwagon jumpers and morons.

[AodhODuinn]

not the fields of home or the fields of connaught, but the fields of athenry. a small town land in galway. Its location is in significant. Can a mayo person sing this song? Yes but they are not from galway or athenry. connaught is in Ireland making the song an Irish song about the famine which effected the entire island of Ireland but mostly connaught and munster. therefore munster sing this beautiful song as a simble of rising against oppression.

[AodhODuinn]

so shut up yank, its not the same as the US.

[slipperyorangeballco]

Go home yank....

[andrewucc]

Athenry is in Connaught langer. Rugby fans are west brit scum

[crokepk88]

Ya yank as if you know..

[Fencesitter]

Connacht isn't spelled Connaught.

[andrewucc]

Not true, Connaught is to Connacht as Munster is to An Mhumhain. So if Im wrong all those Munster bandwagon morons are wrong too. (Im right , by the way)

[AodhODuinn]

so what yank, its an irish song. what would you know. tis walking distance from munster anyway.

[andrewucc]

Yank who??? Anyhoo, one province singing about another, when playin another? Munster ( and rugby) fans are retarded.

[AodhODuinn]

Seriously fool, dont dig any deeper. The song is not about a province, it is about the famine which was most severe in the west of Ireland, It is about rising against opression, munster and conaught are close when it comes to history. Anyway the man who wrote the song in question is from dublin, so your whole argument is fatally flawed.

[AodhODuinn]

shut up yank

[theirishneilers]

it's not walking distance from munster, it's in fucking galway

[kevinwhorgan]

athenry is just over the border from clare,so it within walking distance but thats immaterial anyway.the song is about a theme not a place,athenry was used by the composer because it fit the lyrics

[crokepk88]

its bout 10 miles ..

[kevinwhorgan]

as i said,its incindental.its not about the place

[goodboy09]

walking distance do u ahve any idea how big clare is??? it bigger then limrick

[seanprendevil]

It's not biggger than Limerick
