Aye. I think there were no scores in the last 20min or so last week which was something especially given the second yellow. Could have been a hoaking if we had folded like Tigers.

I suspect it would’ve been a greater scoreline to Leinster last week if the conditions had been like last night.

How ethical is the whole Leinster schools set up? Are these young lads going to school plus some high level rugby or are they going to professional rugby clubs that do a bit of schooling on the side? Also, it’s seems that many of the rich and well to do in the south are sending their kids here for one reason it's not to get an education but to potentially be a rugby star. The whole thing ... south Dublin money people/bankers/snobs is all just a bit puke.
Kids are definitely being sent for the rugby.

Caelan Doris is from Mayo! Played his club rugby in Mayo as a young lad.

Was sent to boarding school in Blackrock.
A lot of the kids who attend these schools do so because that's where their parents or older siblings went. That's certainly the case with Caelan Doris. Most of the schools in which rugby is played would also have very strong academic credentials, as they should considering the fees being paid.

There are probably some parents stumping up the fees primarily because of the standard of rugby coaching available but I'd bet they're in a tiny minority.

I thought those conditions were meant to favouur us?

Anyway, it's a going job Tigers had that extra days rest and we softened Leinster up :lol:

The shop still has to get it from a cat though, Shirley?

Easier for the kittens to get it at source and miss out the middlemen?

Oh I'm quite certain we aren't. :lol:

But then I knew that from the beginning - just wondered if you were playing along for the fun of it, or genuinely thought I was being obtuse. :lol:

How to get cat milk? Use a low stool? No? :duck:

The conditions suited Leireland more than us imo.

You forget the context of this conversation - that Leinster had turned Leicester Tigers into pussy cats. :roll:

Do try to keep up . . . even though we are miles off topic by now. :lol:

Forget trying to get dogs to deliver mines under tanks, or dolphins to blow up enemy ships - If any army can weaponise a lactating cat, they could rule the world! :shock: :shock:
