    Umm.. why's it say 'not available' on RTE2?

    George, did you really just say Keatley is the better goal kicker ? WTF ?

    Good to see the rte player is failing to load the stream.

    Well worth the licence fee :rolleyes:

    Keatley is a consistent 65% while Madigan is a regular 90% with the rare 40%

    Did he not just say "a better kicker"? Probaby meant kicking from hand.

    Not even sure about that; he manages to put kicks out on the full with regularity. Much better at running a back line, I think. Which is ironic as most people would have Madigan as the guy who runs a back line and Keatley as the better controller.

    Keatley's stats have been poor this season, although he's been very accurate in the biggest game. He was much better a couple of years ago, although still never a 90% kicker.


    JJ has statistically been a better goalkicker over the course of his Munster career.

    As a goalkicker, I find he tends to go through periods where he's 85% and then goes into a patch where he's 50-60% which balances his statistics out and drags him down to about 70-75% overall. I think there have been a few seasons where he could barely miss in the first 3 or 4 months and then went to pieces.

    Watching via sky sports, 6 inches and 4 stone the difference between Burgess and D'arcy. Such a contrast! Be great for D'arcy to show size isn't everything...

    D'Arcy has struggled with some bigger guys in the past, notably Rougerie and Bastareaud.

    Whether we like it or not, a good big 'un, beats a good little 'un.

    Luke a last minute withdrawal.
    FFS, looks like he's allergic to 6N season. :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,075 ✭✭✭✭vienne86


    Earls electric. Straight back in as if he were never out of the game.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,636 ✭✭✭✭Tox56


    I'm going to chose to deduce from that that Dom Ryan could have been a world class rugby league player


  • Registered Users Posts: 26,899 ✭✭✭✭BBDBB


    Gilroy taught Earls how to twirl
