Leinster apparently spend more on players than Exeter and Munster apparently spend more on players than Leicester

Its them damn evil Celts and their evil restructuring of the formerly great Heineken Cup to steal our money.

We were beating them right up to then.

This is just not cricket.

I reckon our problem against Wassups away was that we had played so well against La Rochelle that the changing room wasn't hurting. As a result we didn't need to go away and watch the video to correct anything or have any lessons to learn.

We spend more on paracetamol, ice packs and MRI scans than 23 countries in the UN.

They spent too much time waving at the fans after the match. They should have rushed inside to urgently review something.

Mrs 222 has just reminded me we’ll be in Lanzarote and will miss the next home match.

Bloody brilliant news, it’s possible I would have launched a blowpipe missile at the tubes on the trombones.

I used to look at the fixtures to ensure I never missed a game. Couldn’t give a toss now and that is telling me that it’s time to call it quits. Probably won’t though, the Ulsterman is belligerent feck after all.

I had assumed that Leinster, Munster and Ulster would all effectively be on or about similar amounts although I accept I don't know enough about the dark art of central contracts and if/or how that might free up additional funds at local level.

On the face of it the chart suggests that WASPS spend more than Leicester and Exeter which isn't totally surprising.

I found another Esportif intel report on what positions get paid the most and there are some interesting differences between the Premiership and the Pro 12 (as it was)..

The top paid position in both leagues is the 10 shirt however in the Pro 12 the 4 and 5 are the next highest paid whereas in England it is the 12. 8, 15 and 9 are next in the Pro 12 with 15, 3 and both wings being the equivalent in England. The biggest difference is that of the 12 with it being second bottom in the Pro 12 and the 3 bringing up the rear..

Trying not to think about Rodders bringing it up the rear.
