    I don't get this to be honest. Literally nobody had any problem with the rankings when NZ were maintaining a six point differential on the next best team year after year- it is only now that that differential has vanished that we are seeing how the system works. In a RWC year, with that backdrop, and a series of competitive games just prior to the tournament, you are going to get this volatility in the rankings. It really doesn't matter that it changes so often as whatever ranking system is adopted is at the mercy of the results. I quite like the fact that three or four different countries have briefly held it recently as this is a fair reflection of the competition between them.

    Why would I care if NZ were no 1 or not? I actually don't care who's world no 1 or how many times it changes. It only counts (ridiculously) three years before a world cup when you need to be in the top 8 for the stupidly early world cup draw.

    My issues are with the system where teams who haven't played in weeks can rise in the rankings and that Summer/Autumn tests and world cup warm ups have the same status as 6N/Rugby Championship games when it comes to ranking points. Thankfully though Pichot has simplifying the ranking system next on his list

    Luke Fitzgerald is the type of person I could imagine voting for Brexit.

    His obsession with foreign players playing with the provinces is weird as f*ck, and it’s further highlighted by the Kleyn decision.

    I’ve no issue with Kleyn being from South Africa, the issue I have is that I think Toner is a better choice. But alas.

    Luke Fitzgerald is an absolute clown.

    So far up his own hole.

    Henry has been making a fair old effort recently to shut down any conversation he doesn't like the look of. Not sure what the point of a forum is if we can't discuss selection.

    But I do agree that selection is made and opinions won't chnage that decision , maybe by airing opinions now, they might help with future strategy of selecting NIQ players over home-grown.

    Entitled to hold an opinion - absolutely. Acknowledging the insignificance of holding that opinion - desirable.

    Airing opinions will make no difference to future selection strategy.

    Kleyn, regardless of whether's he from South Africa or Southill, is an average enough player. Beirne is somewhere behind him.

    Toner has almost 70 caps for Ireland accrued during our most successful period ever while he was competing with some top quality locks.

    On paper, it should have been no contest.

    So this means that either Toner is way below his marks in training or the coaches just decided that he's finished and he was never in with a shout in the first place (as Matt Williams has said). Personally, I think the latter, but it doesn't matter - he wasn't going to the RWC either way, so it's good that Kleyn is here to step in.

    It's not an either or scenario tho. Surely it's far more likely that the coaches decided he wasn't in with a shout because he wasn't hitting his marks in training?

    Apart from his selection , happy with team for Sat.


    Why is it not fair that Kleyn was selected?
    Why is he not more deserving?

    I’ve seen you post things along these lines before. It baffles me why you would come to a discussion forum and tell people that their opinions are insignificant.

    Every person who posts here is aware that their opinions make no difference to selection strategy. The fact that you feel the need to highlight this is strange in itself. People are free to discuss as they like without you posting nonsense like this.

    I dunno. Like, Toner has been such a mainstay of the team for so long, didn't play that badly in the warm-ups... he must have been absolutely stinking the place out to find himself no longer one of the five best locks? And so bad that Joe decided a few more weeks in camp wouldn't fix it?

    Who knows, maybe, but it just seems very odd.

    My point is; it's not so much a case of Kleyn being parachuted in, more that Toner has been dropped. Net effect is the same but they're different things.

    Lowe's comments not exactly overflowing with enthusiasm, but I've no doubt that he'll give 100% when he's called up: https://www.the42.ie/james-lowe-4796720-Sep2019/. Cracking player to have (despite hating that he's playing in blue :p ; what a signing, in his prime!)

    Surprised he would be so honest abut the situation. Especially this:

    “We sat in a pub in Greece watching the Cricket World Cup”, Lowe added with a nod toward fellow guest Scott Fardy, “and I’m still supporting New Zealand but I’m like, ‘Am I allowed support New Zealand?’ Ireland weren’t there, so…"

    I'm sure he'd give his all but he is really highlighting the mercenary aspect in that article.

    Have to agree. Loves the sound of his own voice.his podcast is fair bad, and his match commentary the few times I've heard him is drivel as well. He was on channel 4 earlier this year and he just wouldn't shut up...on and on and on. Hasn't been on there since afaik.

    He's not someone to pay attention to.

    I'd agree, it's more the latter than the former but they go hand-in-hand. Toner was only dropped because there was a replacement that Joe thinks is up to a certain standard to replace him. The decision to drop Toner wasn't made in isolation.

    Bundee Aki said much the same at a similar point in his contract although maybe his attitude has changed since.
    https://www.sportsjoe.ie/rugby/bundee-aki-connacht-91496

    "I’ve taken in a lot of what Irish people do and stuff like that. I’ve enjoyed Irish culture and stuff like that but it’s wrong for me to say I’m Irish. I’ve enjoyed the culture and the environment I’m in, but for me to say I’m Irish, that’s wrong for me to say because I wasn’t born here.

    "And it’s wrong for me to take away from the guys who were born here and who want to play for the Irish and are Irish. I’m just here. My ambition is to play international, I like taking in the culture as an Irish person, but it’s wrong for me to say I’m Irish."


    Although by contrast CJ Stander has always leaned into considering himself as a Limerick man, wanted a new life in Ireland and said he saw no future for himself in South Africa.
    I suppose it's an individual thing and while some of those players certainly seem to have mercenary motivation others have adapted Ireland as part of their identity.

    That fact that the intro to the left wing consists solely of clips of commentary from tries that he scored says a hell of a lot.

    Given the situation in SA, I assume SA players are far more likely to adopt their new country as their permanent home.

    Are you serious? That's pretty cringe-worthy if so.

    I've never listened to teh podcast, with one exception, the Paul Kimmage episode. Which is hilarious.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,641 ✭✭✭Dog Botherer


    Fitzgerald is an awful analyst and a complete blowhard as a presenter, which is unfortunate since The Left Wing consistently has very good guests, only for the conversation to be rendered unlistenable by Luke.

    Have a feeling those appearances will dry up after a bit of time is put between Luke and the squad. Unless he goes full Hook and gets himself a contrarian spot on Eir or the like he’d want to focus on his token job, the noble trade of banking.

    Well I see him as South African , he grew up as a South African , came to Ireland as an adult to play professional rugby (no problem with that) - but declaring for Ireland after a couple of years of residency I have an issue with - same as if Zebo started playing for France - I see him as Irish -

    Personally at lower levels I have been on the wrong end of players being brought in . Football , not perfect , is run much better internationally - MY OPINION - but i feal for Dillane and Toner


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,767 ✭✭✭✭molloyjh


    Ah here, theres plenty of things to give Luke stick over, theres no need to be inventing stuff. The podcast intro is done by production staff, not him.

  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 600 ✭✭✭Lil Sally Anne Jnr.


    I watched the first half of our victory against NZ again last night. Interesting viewing as it's basically the same team, plus Toner and Marmion. Astonishing how well everyone played. It feels like a very long time ago that everything was sticking like that.

    They knew three years ago that there was a South African lock joining munster.

    Its extra challange for a position which unfortunately they didn't succeed in this time. Nothing stopping then from raising their game to get ahead again, other than their ability.

    Same goes for wingers when Lowe gets qualified, or JGP gets qualified. If you want that position you'd better be good enough to claim it. Your family tree does not, and should not, entitle you to any position in sport and to claim otherwise is xenophobic at least.

    Is it Xenophoic to say that Toner and Dillane are more Irish than Kleyn, who was born and bred in South Africa ??
    So players have to just up ther game to accomadate the latest import , regardless how good - thats what club rugby is for , international sport really is about the best players from a country playing the best players from another country .
    - many of these players themselves admit it is a bit joke saying they are Irish - as per previous posts.


  • Site Banned Posts: 41 thesiegeof


    I know some of the smaller nations (rugby wise) have many imports. We have 3 (Carberry can't be included) who've made the squad this time. What about other countries? I know New Zealand is controversial but does anyone have any figures? Or how many do Wales have, considering this is an Ireland v Wales thread.

    and anything I've seen of Dillane and Toner in that time, both have played better than Kleyn, so not buying that of upping ther game bit


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,018 ✭✭✭Bridge93


    Well they aren’t being picked. So naturally to be picked they must up their game. Unless you think Schmidt is selecting Kleyn for some altering motive other than performance and suitability

    No it's factual. Kleyn isn't and doesn't claim to be Irish. He is Irish qualified though.

    p.s. Dillane was born abroad.

    Not sure I’d agree with this, think I’m happier with someone who has lived, worked and paid taxes here than someone who’s grandparents left. I know rugby has similar rules but in so far as the Irish team goes the rugby is to me far ahead of soccer.

    No. Its xenophobic to say that toner or dillane should be selected over kleyn because they are Irish and he is not.

    After all, it is the selection that we are discussing.

    Kleyn followed the rules, and has earned his place obviously because the coaches have seen him outperform the other choices.

    Now don't think I'm in any way a cheerleader for IQs over Irish cos I'm not, but it doesn't sit well with me to champion one player over another due to their place of birth when both are eligible for selection. I've been one of toners biggest fans on here down through the years, I remember a time when both .ak and myself would be the main arguers for him over good competition. But in this case, I'm delighted beirne is in ahead of toner if dev isn't hitting his straps in training, and kleyn in ahead of ultan if ultans game isn't at the level it should be at.

    These are "once in a four year window" competition and we need our best 31 out there

    Quick question.
    Have people used their phones to listen to the refs mic or must you buy the ref link?
    Seen a tweet during the six nations saying the frequency is 96fm.
    Does this actually work?

    Is that a joke about football being run much better? It must be, right? Kids being traded abroad before their teenage years. Irish teams for years ignoring home grown talent at an industrial scale. Administration here, in Europe, worldwide riddled with corruption at every level and massive scale. Jesus, football is the poster child for everything a sporting organisation should not be. Here and nearly everywhere else. For all its faults, rugby is run extremely well by and large

    Wales have Hadleigh Parkes already qualified and are waiting for Willis Halaholo and Johnny McNichol to qualify soon.

    Scotland have Willem Nel and Sam Johnson, with Josh Strauss missing the cut for the final 31 having trained with the wider squad.

    International soccer.....

    Ray Hoghton
    Andy townsend
    Tony cascarino
    John aldrige
    Phil babb
    Gary breen
    Lee carsley
    David connoly
    Matt holland

    Etc etc etc....

    All deemed not good enough for England but welcome of the Irish granny phone call....
    And the only reason the IQ system doesn't exist in Irish soccer is because we haven't a professional league good enough to attract international quality players.

    Jeez if the FAI are your standard bearer for good governance then I'm afraid I'm out of words.....

    Give me Jean kleyn earning his cap over michael Bents route anyday.

    (nothing against bent, but that route to an international cap is a joke and absolute proof as to why we had an NIQ system)

    International soccer is not just Ireland and the FAI , the world cup has many other teams , which i was referring to , but nevermind interpret what you want - but I've said eneogh.

    Your phone needs a fm tuner to be able to pick up the ref radio because you can only pick up the 96fm signal locally at the stadium. I use an old HTC one that has the tuner enabled to listen to the ref radio
