Cool lads, tell us what you think here!

I haven't listened back yet but IIRC I was fairly negative on Munster and forgot to mention how epic Mafi was against Treviso.

irishbucsfan

On Docs points about the cardiff match.

He said leinster didn't play the ref properly and cardiff did, but in order to play the ref properly he would need to be consistent. You can't compliment cardiff for playing the ref properly when they were held to different rules!

I like the new Luxembourgian Alan.

He lives in a wealthy city, he is very negative about Munster. He's probably more leinsteresque than I am.

My work is actually outside the city and I probably won't be living in the city either.

Way off topic, but the price of renting in Luxembourg (that is to say the city and its surrounds which is basically the entire country) is insane. It's worse than Ireland during the property boom.

Anyway, thanks for listening to the show.

Good show lads, tbf a much more in-depth analysis of issues than you'll get on radio. Will be keeping an eye out for the next one!

A comment like that put to rest suspicions I had about Limerick peoples attitude to casual violence.:)

By the way. Good show.

He mentioned two mint like it was a legitimate service!

Enjoyed it again lads keep up good work. Homework was clearly done on Connacht which I was pleased to hear!

I'd like to see the presenter come in a bit more and provoke thoughts and questions while you talk. Have a listen to the off the ball podcasts, I think Eoin McDevitt is very good at what I'm trying to say.

But enjoyed and looking forward to next week!

Tbh I think it's better the way we have it. It facilitates us to bounce points off each other.

Hey Phil,

Yeah we used to have it where I would be constantly jumping in to steer the conversation, but to be honest, we discussed it, and the lads are the rugby experts, not me - that's why I kind of wanted it to be more of a chat about the table where I introduced the topics.

I do it a lot on the other shows I do. Glad you enjoyed it.

thomond2006

256 p/d already, feckin' hell.

Davekoolhill

Yes, it's terrific stuff.

Thanks to everyone on here for helping make the show a success.

Also, we are developing a core audience in various countries.

Big Nelly

Another good show lads!!

irishbucsfan

Chat to ya then

Benny Cake

Listened for the first time last night, very impressed lads. An excellent piece, very professional and some excellent points made. Wouldn't necessarily agree with all that was said but then again, I seldom do!

Keep up the good work and I'll be tuning in from now on...

Davekoolhill

Thanks Benny,

Don't forget to spread the word. Also, any advice for the show is always welcome.

You should have exact score predictions in future episodes, to allow for gloating/humiliation.

Some form of angelic choir background music for any mention of BOD and possibly some banjo music for any mention of munster.

Brilliant.

Each contributor should have his own musical 'sting'.

Another thought. This one serious.

Oh jesus, you've no idea how much I swear during a game. They'll be lads emailing "Please think of the children" if I'm on a rugby fanzone!

Nice idea though, don't know if that could happen.

Just posting to say how much I enjoy this podcast as casual rugby fan. Great work lads and talk as much about Eoin Griffin and Tiernan O'Halloran as possible :pac:
