    So Conor dean left Mary's for Corinthians
    Mary's signed Sean Healy from nan van, rory Fleming from greystones
    Mick o gara has joined them from school and have a swiss international signed as well

    Any more transfers

    I don't know a Rory Fleming from Greystones, certainly not with their senior team.

    Naas losing quite a few players:

    Cillian Dempsey to Marys, Johne Murphy & Fionn Carr retiring and moving on.
    Paulie Tolofua has done his cruciate
    Peter Osbourne gone travelling I think

    Signed a 15 from Clondalkin. I don't have his name.

    He plays 10

    Heard that also.

    Tadhg McElroy joining Clontarf and Joe Horan joining Belvo.

    Belvo also with Mike Ross on their coaching staff this year. Money doesn't seem to be an issue on Anglesea Road this season, the boom is most certainly back!

    Hearing young Munster been going round all over limerick/all over in general offering this and that to sign players
    Will be interesting to see how many new faces they have
    Charity cups starting soon so we'll soon know

    Garryowen play terenure, navan host young Munster and sligo travelling to nenagh this weekend for run outs. Any more lined up

  • Registered Users Posts: 2,815 ✭✭✭D14Rugby


    Seems Aungier hasn't transferred to Clontarf going by the Leinster team sheet for tomorrow.


  • Registered Users Posts: 617 ✭✭✭Chico Flores

    Ian Condell, formerly of UL Bohs and Ed O’Keefe played for Wesley last night in versus Trinity in the Leinster Senior Cup.

    Alan Francis was playing for Trinity.

    Went into it, which was a mistake as got drenched. Wesley won 28-10, much bigger pack and more experienced on a wet night.

    A huge amount of pressure is going to be on Rock now. New head coach but haemorrhaging players by the week it seems and a lot of Rock SCT players deciding to move to other clubs and current Rock players moving on like Francis. A club with a lot of financial clout but sliding down the tables, never a good look.

    How was Ed O'Keeffe, saw he was playing Sale A a good bit recently.

    Wasn’t a night for the backs. Wesley played an effective keep ball and they kicked well. Trinity tried to open the play up as much as possible but just not the night for it. No one really stood out as a superstar, but so early in season to be fair.

    If it shows other clubs not to overdo spending on players and focus on their own age grade and development systems then its a good thing.
    How many of the schools players will have any connection to club any way? How many will have played youths/minis in the club?

    Yeah
    Young enough shannon team by looks of it with Daly, Iguweru

    Interesting to see Jake Considine on bench for crescent. hopefully he goes back to front row as he was a real prospect there and stops playing backrow where he wasnt as effective

    To be fair Rock tend to have a very strong connection with Willow Park at youths/mini level
