    Don't pretend I'm anti-Leinster. I support Madigan, Fitz and Strauss to be selected instead of other good players. Really:)
    But the "he doesn't need more practice" when he played 60 avarage min (I'm kind) against Scot A, NO...

    The Big B has played plenty of rugby and coaching time with Joe. He is where he needs him. Ready to step in as a number 3. So he is focusing on his numbers 1 and 2. The Bossy may step in for the England game if that is in the interest of the programme for optimising Murrs or Redser to peak in the main world cup games.

    To be honest I'd say the reason he's not starting for Leinster is because McGrath would've been running in training all summer. They look like they're building a bit continuity there.

    But at 30 something and a few world cups under his belt he certainly doesn't need practice.

    Listen, we understand that you want Marmion to go and that you don't rate Boss but the guy is an experienced, competent international and if he get's picked for the 31 I hope you are supporting him as much as the rest of the team whether they are from Connacht, Munster, Ulster or NZ.

    Or Leinster.

    Jesus, is this really still going on? And on multiple threads!?

    Yeah that's a ponderate stance I can agree with (as it's game over for Marmion for now)

    I think the chances of McGrath being named reserve ahead of Marmar are even lower than those that Marmar would have made the 31 ahead of Boss.
    So no. It wont start all over again. Marmio will be in pole position by the phone.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,433 ✭✭✭✭thomond2006


    I don't want Marmion to be picked anymore.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,440 ✭✭✭The Rape of Lucretia


    I dont even know what a Kieran Marmion is. :confused:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,440 ✭✭✭The Rape of Lucretia


    So, what about that Luke Fitzgerald, eh ?

    Good player, if a little overrated by some, not helped by injuries.

    Good point. The Mcgrathser's never been given a fair shake by Schmidty

    Photos+Schmidt press statement mean Healy and Moore are in the plane, McGrath as emergecy cover for TH, if Killcoyne is prefered to Bent. White and Furlong, in that order, are "the stay by the phone" men.
    Agree?
