The Dudley Boys approve of this OP.

freyners

I'd be happy to do a write up. There are people here that are probably better qualified though

Just to point out, that in Muldoon's 275th cap for Connacht, he will captain his team, priced around 2.75 to win....

That's the kind of bullsh1t chance correlation you simply can't ignore.

former total

Could the mods stick "Sky Sports 3 and TG4" into the thread title?

9/4 is an iconic price

An English lad I know on facebook lives up in Edinburgh, and was posting that the last time he saw Connacht play was against Toulouse and couldn't wait for them to be Leinster. So ye the Connacht bandwagon has spread far and wide.:pac:

I've had a bandwagon jersey for 2 years, So I could be pre-Rugby's Biggest Bandwagon.

I was referring to the irony of a Leinster fan calling another team's support a bandwagon! But all the new fans are also very welcome:)

Any particular reason for that?

It took hard bloody work to steal that bandwagon from Munster.

Connacht the designated home team
Actually scratch that. That wouldn't be the case.

The Connacht jersey has a white shoulder on it and is a light green, Leinster wearing a white jersey will be too similar if you ask me.

Kinsella also said that they reckon they've sold about 35K tickets to the game, fair play if that's true!

the entire back of the connacht jersey is dark blue. Glasgow wore white last weekend and it was no issue

Not sure if this has been mentioned but Toner is out due to family bereavement

Should have the title changed to:

Formerly Rugby's Biggest Bandwagon vs Currently Rugby's Biggest Bandwagon

:pac:

CatFromHue

In fairness Munster hold the formerly biggest bandwagon title

It's the only title they can win any more :P

It's too late Adbrowne I've already engaged my outrage-o-meter to full power

Jimbob1977

Date of the match is down as 28/08/2016 in the title

Leinster should be able to beat Connacht any day

Del.Monte

Don't forget the map - it should surely be in this thread. It will be appearing in my local full of Leinster supporters tomorrow.

I don't know why, but that bugs me. We always seem to lose when playing in white, but that's probably because it's generally always away...

Well the home team should traditionally offer to change their colours

Getting the excuses in early

Just hoping it's a belter of a game, could be epic.
