McSorleys in Ranelagh wouldn't be a bad spot either

Kielys in Donnybrooke is another good one

"Munster Supporters Pub in Dublin "

Any rugby supporters' pub will do you fine - the TVs won't be turned off because Leinster aren't playing.

Sounds good. Live in Ranelagh so Coppers or McSorleys sound decent bets. Is Kielys not a Leinster fans pub?

FFS - Leinster fans will be supporting Munster too.

Calm down mate. Want to go to a pub where there are predominantly Munster supporters. I don't want want to go somewhere where there is polite applause after all the tries. And I know plenty of Leinster supporters who don't want Munster to win.

Thanks to the rest of you though.

Oh I dunno about that!

Thought BOD came out afterwards in '06 saying he didn't watch the game when asked about Munster performance

I know a few Leinster fans too that will be indifferent about the game.
Dunno if its down to jealousy or not liking Munster's style of game!

Bloody hell can't even have a "good pub" thread without a provincial crap flinging match. :rolleyes:

Try Doheny & Nesbitts on Baggot Street (St. Green's end). Great rugby pub, loads of rugby memorabilia etc. Watched the London Irish v. Toulouse game there (most other pubs in town that day were showing soccer) - very good atmosphere and quiet a few Toulouse supporters in there as well. Most people were shouting for LI though.

Rody Boland’s in Rathmines have been flying a Munster Flag for the last week, so I reckon that could be a good spot as well.

Fortunately for me, I'll be in Cardiff :cool:

D & N should be jammers i'd say, rody's is good but screen placement can be a bit crap.

Rody's i'll be good, it's a Tipp pub, so should be full of munster.

+1 Roddys, Flannerys, Rody Bolands, McSorleys, Coppers (but not for the game!) are all "country pubs" with the Teachers, Garda, and Nurse nights (stereotyping of course), but would imo be the best places for Munster fans to watch the game.

Ive been in Kielys for a couple of games and the athmosphere was magic.. brilliant craic with the "goys" (sorry! couldnt resist!) .. it was just pure love of the game

Second the lot of that.

Usually go to D&Ns. CA, Wasps and Glaws game there were great.
Rody's made sure one telly would have the Ulster game on the night of the Chelsea/Pool CL semi after Kielys and the Horse Show had let me down.

Aren't all Dublin pubs country pubs? Ever been out in Dublin on Christmas eve when us culchies go home.

Tumble weed I tell ya!

Has to be in the heart of D4 for me this weekend!

c'mon Munster.

I watched the 2006 final in Rody Bolands and the atmosphere was fantastic
Have to get there early to get a good spot as screen placement isn't ideal.
Was in D&N for the Ireland v France game which was good craic also but this place is small and could be completely wedged.

Come down to the Duke next xmas eve so, so if ya can get in the door!

Plus most people would drink in their locals cause of lack of taxi's and getting home and stuff.

Door will probably be locked, with no one home!

Doheny and Nesbitt is one of the worst pubs to watch rugby IMO. Really badly laid out, gets very packed and uncomfortable and the TV's are tiny.

i'll be watching it in Doheny and nesbits...:D
