    Barnhall and Terenure into Prem 1.

    Belvo vs Mary's will be close, a 50/50 toss up. Rock vs Wesley will be competitive but from what I heard Rock's pack is huge.

    Rest pretty much picks itself.

    Very safe to assume they'll qualify automatically as simply too awkward to do anything else and they will play each other for game time before league starts

    UCD and Trinity are playing each other this week.

    So assume likes of Terenure, Barnhall, Tarf and Lansdowne doing something similar.

    I think Navan and Greystones have pulled out proper so it means others are automatically in.

    Why it's the capital city and is the most accessible place in the country so everyone from around the country can get there with ease. Not so at Musgrave Park. I'd also argue that people from Dublin tend to be more nationalistic than the country bumpkins.

    Your last sentence is so wrong its laughable.
    And because it means not every single international of any kind is played in the capital.
    The aviva deal means no senior internationals played outside Dublin bar an odd uncapped/Ireland XV game. No womens games. Virtually all u18/19 games played in Dublin.
    And Cork is still very accessible. Public transport to there is good. Its not like its a game in a small town..

    More people involved in the rising come from Dublin therefore national feelings of patriotism tend to be higher in Dublin. Look at Hill 16 for Dublin matches - unlike any bumpkin support with grannys and children coming to support their older brothers cousins etc. These are nationalists there to free the country from tyranny. Cork is less accessible to people from the north than dublin is and probably easier to get from most places in Connacht to Dublin than to Cork.

    Just re that bit there is no deal that means the games have to be played at Lansdowne Road it's simply just the only stadium that can fit most games and can generate the most revenue

    Yes there is. Then why have any full senior games, few and far between, since aviva opened been Irish XVs and not full test games?

    You know why Cork is called the "Rebel County" right?

    I'm really not sure at this stage if your are serious with this stuff or just trolling, but it is quite tiresome.

    Because full test games get crowds too big for any other stadium, even games against Georgia get 40k+

    I know Leinster have a fairly strong crop for this years u20's, Ulster aren't great but have two or three very talented guys (that are injured, unfortunately). I never get to see Munster or Connacht play - anyone know the standouts for them, or guys likely to go to the JWC?

    Stronger than average for both with two standouts being:

    Niall Murray(Connacht/Lock-Blindside)
    Sean French(Munster/Centre)

    French especially could be special.

    They remained loyal to the House of York after the the War of Roses and the House of Lancaster took the crown?
