On a slightly different note, I see that Ruan has made the Bok squad for the match against the world xv. Quite surprised to be honest.

Wrong thread langball.


Look Baggy I know you are pushing on old boy but this is really very sloppy by the standards you have set for yourself. You've been helped.
What sort of arsefoon set up an Emerging Ireland thread FFS, next thing there will be an Ards thread or Shannon :roll:
Well why not? I saw a mention of Paris Buns on another thread and did think that thon wee delicacies were worth a thread of their own. Not only are they quare atin gutty, but if they get stale, ye can wind a bit of string abouth them and spin them on the point like a pierry .

And I don't just mean Ireland. It shouldn't happen anywhere.

The semi surprise is the inclusion of Felix Jones as starting full back

The guy has never struck me as having an International potential especially when you consider that Cunningham was sidelined for years .

Likewise I thought the Leinster front might have been rested but front row is an area of strength in Argie Rugby

Provided our forwards play as well as they can we could open up Argentina with that backline. Jones is a bit blessed to be there but the rest are pretty exciting. That being said Jones can sometimes show flashes of his youthful brilliance. Hopefully he will manage to do so.

Can Murphy control at 8 is a question. 2nd row very interesting with the old master and the young player with an awful lot of potential.

Well the back row has 3 players who have played 8 so it may be a case of perm any one from three at scrum time in loose it depends on who has been told to do what
Or first up contest the ball one guard one take etc open or blind
