    Looks like James Ryan won't be walking, never mind running, for a while.

    Yup, it's no fun at all throwing the towel in this early. These sorts of posts should be kicked out of the thread...

    It was O'Gara of course. Duncan McRae's old pal! Got cited for it and was suspended for a game.

    O'Gara!

    Cox had left the shoulder in a few minutes earlier so it wasn't completely out of the blue. Think he got cited but can't remember if there was a ban.

    I thought it might be but couldn't remember ever seeing that clip before. LOL.

    Did something similar in a hurling match once so I understand the frustration. No cameras or citing officer though :D

    Munster just returned some of their allocation. That is an indication of why.

    Too soon to organise a match there, needs a bigger turn around and also time to sell 45,000 tickets...

    If there even was a slim chance to move it to the Aviva it would have immediately been killed by the Munster turnout for their home quarter against Edinburgh.

    There was never a chance really. It was the RDS well before any playoff game took place.

    I have a season ticket and I have been to every Munster home game, spent money and travelled to Bordeaux, but i just couldnt be bothered travelling up to the RDS. Most people I know in the exact same boat are the same. I just shelled out for next years season ticket too so my Munster spend this year is maxed.

    Ill cheer them on from the local and be delighted i dont have to deal with the traffic going up and down to dublin because its just too expensive to stay up there.

    May as well move the final to the RDS if Munster qualify so, if that's the attitude! :P

    Obviously some people have never paid for a hotel in Cork or Kerry where the local industry has moved on from fleecing sheep to fleecing anyone who happens to be native to elsewhere!

    Try London. You'd be staying in a flea pit with one tarnished star for twice the price of Parnell St.

    Dublin is the third most expensive city in europe for hotels, ahead of london.
