A savage piece of work by @ArthurJamesOD jrnl.ie/6249176t
A piece with Rory Scannell, who found it difficult to believe he’s closing in on a decade in Munster red. Here he is on the things he wishes he knew when he was younger, unleashing his inner footballer after seven years, and Axel. the42.ie/6269129
Our tribute to Anthony Foley.
@rugby_ie @MrLukeUpton Looking forward to this new publication #BlairMayne #PaddyMayne
Get your level-headed stuff here because I’ll be coming in hot tomorrow. @Murray_Kinsella has warned me that there is actually a game this weekend that we need to focus on and that if I repeatedly infringe with Munster rants, I’ll be muted for 10 minutes. And Jesus, I’ll test him
✅ Level-headed review of Munster's tactics ✅ What Ulster got right ✅ The pure joy of the North v South game ✅ Farrell's red card ✅ Squeaky bum time for the Rebels Brilliant stuff as always from @Toolan82 on the latest rugby pod for members of The42: members.the42.ie
Look at the notes on Finn's hand... Surely the trailblazing candidate to bring NFL playbooks onto the rugby field...?!
Last week wasn't a good one for the Scots. the42.ie/4981094
Eoin Toolan and Murray in full flight on today’s pod — so much so that I kind of forgot I was presenting it once or twice. Fascinating statistical breakdown by Eoin on Ireland’s inefficiency in the humidity compared to other top-tier nations. iTunes etc👂🏻
@The42_ie @rugby_ie @Murray_Kinsella @Toolan82 Usually enjoy this to hear the opinions from other home nations. I think I’ll skip this week if that’s ok? 🙈🙉
Nice stuff from @bernardjackman here on Rassie’s ‘Boks, and great to be back in studio with wise old @Murray_Kinsella. @pHDunner failed to report for pre-season training and we are aware of reports he’s been podcasting with Vincent Kompany’s Anderlecht.
@rugby_ie Hopefully Peter can play his way into Connacht & link up with the large & growing # of LFC players to have a succesful career out West Peter just broke former LFC player Matt Healy’s AIL try scoring record & hopefully replaces former player Cian Kelleher who has moved to Leinster
It was great to chat openly to @SeanFarrell_42 this week about all things rugby and my transition out of the game.
Ex-Connacht stalwart @Brownetown87 has kept himself mentally and physically very well since retiring as 31-year-old jrnl.ie/4538666t
❄️ in his veins 👑
Ian Madigan slotted an 88th-minute game-winning conversion for Pat Lam's Bristol in their vital 26-24 victory away to Northampton yesterday. #IrishAbroad
@rugby_ie More than a consolation. That try means that Ireland stay ahead of England in the World Rankings!!
Really looking forward to chatting to @GavanCasey and @RonanOGara10 next week ahead of the Ireland vs. All Blacks game. Join us! the42.ie/4325304
Great night back in Limerick, chatting to @AndyLeeBoxing and @niallkelly at the launch of their brilliant book 'Fghter'. You can hear how it went later this week on @offtheball 🥊📖
