No not really. Brady's & Eddie Rocket's are the only good things about it, the rest of it is pretty medioker(sp?)

Terenure College is divided into two catagories of people: people who play rugby and people who don't. I went to that school and the people who played rugby (probably like urself) were considered as the gods of the school. I've nothing against Terenure village as Bradys is a good place to go drinking but don't get me started on the Terenure College.

Dave!

I get the bus from there every morning, and I don't really like it, to be honest. It's really old looking, and no greenery around. Tallaght isn't great, but one thing I've noticed is that there's tonnes of fields (to go drinkin in, ya say ) and trees and stuff. Nice.

That's the way it should be,people that don't play rugby don't realise the sacrifice that we put in almost every day,staying back for 2 hours in the cold rain and mud,when you goys just go home and sit in front of a fire watching telly,we rugby players deserve any special treatment we get

:rolleyes:
Load of shi'ite tbh, everyone's paying the exact same fee therefore they all deserve to be treated equally.
Those who don't play rugby are most likely harder working towards their leaving cert,get better results and are probably the only reason Terenure has any reputation of being a good school(academically).So if you think about it, those who aren't playing and are achieving the best results should be treated specially 'cause they're attracting people to enroll in the school, and upkeeping it's "reputation".
If someones parent's wanted to put them in a school to play rugby, I'm sure they'd choose a better school than Terenure.

as far as it goes for you makin a "sacrifice" to stay back and jump around in muck for 2 hours with about 20 other lads "is" "your choice" the people that go home and sit infront of the fire are the ones that are laughin at you lads when u come in with ur colds and flu's, and there are no "scumbags" in templeogue village (i know exactly the crowd you are talking about) there all just little "wannabe" scumbags, "story bud...will ya get us a few tin's?" shower of f00l's they are...

BTW are the people that arent recieving this "special treatment" the one's that are prob doing loads of work in school and not going on about "oh yaa brad it was a WILD try that i scored thy other day...rather!! oink oink!"

Gick

Actuallt,studies have shown that people who participate in sports at school on average score higher marks than their non-sporting counterparts,also,if you people laugh at us for staying back and playing,why're you complaining that we're being treated better,but what do you expect,if the principal of the school is strolling past two students in a corridor, one who makes the sacrifice to give his school a better name in rugby,and one who just comes in and goes home without a care who do you expect him to be friendlier to?

not much can be said for your spelling- the word is actually!!

Gick = Owensie

In either case its obvious he's just looking for a reaction. I went to the school it's quite a nice place. As for a good academic record I've no idea where you got that from but that it doesn't have. Don't get me wrong, it doesnt have a bad one... but definitely not a good one.

The school has extremely good sporting facilities and 50+ acres of land in what I'd consider an expensive area to live. Terenure itself is nothing special, its decent enough. Few decent restraunt’s and pub's.

ADO

LMFAO @ swingking.......!!

Gink its ur own choice to play rugby but if u feel u need "special Treatment" from your principal to feel better then a few of your fellow peer's well then i suggest that you prove it in your school work rather then your rugby,to be honest if parents wanted to send there kids to a GOOD rugby school would they not choose Clongowes or Blackrock or Belvedere or St.Marys as far as i know most of the irish rugby team come from them schools. oh and the reason that people are prob complaining is because it can come down to a very very simple thing.......its call Discrimination! so if u like your "special treatment" well then every time just remember that when you get your "special treatment" at least 1 of your class mates are being discriminated, but you care so much about sticking up for the people that play rugby and getting there special treatment why not stick up for the people that are being discriminated against, all you are doing is running around a field and you want to be recognised for this?....pffft..

by the way, do you feel like a better person because you play rugby for your school that you can frown apon your class mates? If so then you are a very opinionated,arrogant, stuck up person and i wish i played rugby so i could meet you on the field

Gick

a few things,swingking that was obviously a typo,not a spelling mistake,Damnyanks,I never said the school had a good academic record I said that on average the pupils who participate in sports score higher marks than the pupils who don't,and Ado I went to Terenure because I live a few metres away from the school,AND because I knew that they would have an above average rugby team,even better with me in it.I never asked to be treated specially,I just don't like how non-rugby players complain about it

damnyanks

Someone else said the academic comment. How old are you ? Mabye I know you... I live near enough to the school as well.

Gick

im 17 and in 5th year,''mabye'' you do know me are you in the school aswell?

air_vent

This is shocking how can people who play any sport expect special treatment.

Is it really no surprise that everybody hates rugby players these generall feelings dont come up for nothing.
Arrogant gee bags have no idea why they think they are so great not that much of an amazing sport to be honest.

Maybe its because they think they are hard for playing ruggers but there not , thats the crux of their problem.!!!

Gick

Oh my god,you idiot,as I just said we do NOT expect special treatment,it's just natural that teacher's will be friendlier towards students who play rugby for the school

My bro was on the S (senior cup team) in a very prominent southside rugby school. None of the team asked for it, it was jus little things ie. no homework n stuff around match times. While it was his decision 2 play rugby, I can see where Gick is coming form, I mean winning/doin well in the senior cup, ups the profile of the school, and rugby training is really hard work, so a little leeway is ok in my books

Gick

thanks a lot Blondie,I deserve some support here,she knows what we rugby players go through,I assume most of you people don't

GICK i know first hand what rugby players go through. its self inflicted U do it by choice so NO they dont deserve a little leway or special treatment thats pure BS so as some peeps would say 'build a bridge and get over it'

This thread is about Terenure not Wether rugby players deserve special treartment or not. So back on topic please. Terenure is a nice place but like EVERYWHERE it has good and bad areas. Bradys is good the chipper (cant remember name) down from the spar in the village is nice. and they are my 2 cents

Blondie86Star

No probs Gick, seeing how hard my bro trained and how hard he was pushed by his coaches I've got nothin but support 4 u

Gick

Richie where's the bad area in Terenure?I'v lived here all my life and am yet to find one,thanks again Blondie

ADO

gick - why do all your post's have something to do with rugby? do u think u are special because you play rugby? there is "nothing" special about playing rugby, its just a bunch on unfit over weight people jumping on top of each other.

Gick

My last post had nothing to do with rugby,why did you put nothing in quotatation marks?Most rugby players are fit,there's 3 positions where it helps to be heavy

your obivously not lookin hard enough. ive been in the bad areas myself. Cant name any off hand. And by bad i mean not as nice as the good areas/can be rough with bad people. Not complete sh1tholes like bad areas can be.

Im sick of you and your tunnel vision/closed mindedness/ light stereotyping GICK its startin to annoy me now.
All i can say is get out in the world and see what i is really like, and get out of your 'im from a good area I rule and my life will be deadly' mentallity.

Cause ill tell you now if you dont life will come along and kick you square in the nuts.
Life sucks :eek: get a helmet YOU GICK will definitely need 1. I rest my case

Dave!

Indeed, what will he do when he's older and he can't afford a house in Terenure? He'll have to move to an area with commoners!!! :eek:

Wait...

My bad, daddy won't let that happen

AndyWarhol

Hey Gicko. Whilst it's admirable that you are so passionate about your rugby, do you not think you're going a wee bit overboard? There are more important things in life you know.

And whilst you've obviously got a slight upturn to the end of your nose; remember this: You're from Terenure for God's sake! How middle class is that?

I think this is a case of big fish in a small, blinkered pond that Gicko finds himself in.

Funkstard

You forget the fact that Terenure aren't very good at rugby anymore. I wouldn't include them in the top tier of schools rugby

I left Terenure College a few years ago (before Eanna took over) and I can categorically say that there is no need for a group of 100 people to be seperated into two groups based on their love or lack of love for rugby. It's a load of arse that's continued by a small faction of staff and pupils.

My year had a star senior cup player leave the team because he was sick of being treated like a hero by teachers who should have been giving him a bollicking for not working hard enough acedically. We all mixed, even those who hated the sport or hated the fact that we were forced to play it in first year.

I'm glad you think you're representing your school well but you'll find that Terenure College excel at several other things amongst them badminton (they're one of the top schools in the country) and science (excellent track record in the young scientist exhibition). Any special treatment that rugby players recieve for representing their school is equally deserved by these people but rarely shown to them. What that school needs is Mary Carroll to be principal for a year and try to get people to see priorities.

Terenure is a nice enough village with a couple of nice pubs. I'm a much bigger fan of Templeogue because of the Morgue though and Rathfarnham village is a little nicer for a stroll.

Gick

''Daddy won't let that happen'' Exactly,my whole life is sorted you people need to stop telling me things like ''life's gonna catch up on you and kick you in the nuts''I seriously doubt it now stop worrying about me and let me live my own life,my opinions aren't going to change

Why is everyone going on about rugby in terenure, I mean , gerards beat them!!!!

nure05

terenure village is kinda bad except for eddies on a late friday night milkshake!i'm a rugger bugger and display the typical 'steamer' look,but i much prefer to sit on d wall at mace in templelogue village on a friday night and watch d lil skangers over by the AIB bank struggle to get sum loser to get them a few tinnys.
plus rathfarnham is a much better place to fish if your looking for a few tins with rowans and shevlins before heading off to bushy before heading off to wezz on a late saturday night as i'm only in 4th yr

Gick

we didn't have the best side last year,the year after next is definitely our year

Gick

Nure 05,I'd say I'v a pretty good guess as to who you are,not revealing my identity though before you ask

nure05

funkstard what r u tlkin about,our S's have won in 01 03, and a lot of us expected to win in 05 as it was another year of the great 'dunlop' family

Gick

Funkstard

I would bet my house that Blackrock will make it number 66 this year.
