    Terenure hosting Blackrock this Saturday.
    That'll be some game, might go and watch if I have the time. Will give us a good indication of how both teams stand. Also think Clongowes are hosting Michaels next weekend. Good to see that there's big games happening with the schools Leinster reps involved.

    Does anyone have any results from Division B, any teams with big results? I hear Newbridge and Roscrea are impressive.

    Should be a cracker of a game, both Billy Dardis and Rob Somerville are back in the starting line up

    Terenure beat Blackrock today. I think the final score was 36-16 but I could be wrong.

    Cheers. Wasn't sure what kicks were going over! I noticed Rock were missing Jaeger and Timoney went off and I think Terenure were only missing O'Neill. Still thought the Terenure backs were sensational.

    If anybody is interested, me and a friend are in the process of developing a schools rugby app for Leinster. It will include like fixtures, results for Junior cup and senior cup. We are only doing those two first to see how it goes. It should be out before February hopefully so you can follow the cup. Jamie heaslip is already following us and we will wait till the app is out to get other leinster players to tweet about us.
    Our twitter is @schoolsrugbyapp

    So Michaels are still yet to lose. Will be a big test for them next week away to Clongowes.

    Would be surprised if Clongowes overturn Michaels. Saw 2nd half v Belvo today and they are poor compared tp previous years. Missing a few players, but could easily have lost to an average Belvo side.

    really is too early to say which u19 players from club and schools systems will join academy. wait until schools cups, youths provincial and all ireland leagues and irish u18/19 teams play before academy places are even looked at.

    Billy Dardis
    Harrison Brewer
    Jack O'Neill

    Maybe, but 4 went straight in from school last year. And 3? the year before. And those lads were pretty easy to predict.

    Yeah would agree with these 3. Dardis is as good as Conway was-at that age-if not better and Brewer is exactly the type of centre Leinster will be crying out for in a couple of years.

    Jack O'Neill isn't academy material. Doesn't have a size to make it as a pro in the back row and wasn't that impressive for Leinster 19s. Leinster have enough back row talent at the moment. The other two are great players who'll go straight into the academy. Surely Michaels or Clongowes would have a few players worthy of getting into the academy ?

    Yeah not sure about O'Neill and really depends if Leinster are looking for a genuine openside. Is Leavy already one? I would say he is. Think Ross Byrne is definitely worth a spot for his kicking alone.

    Totally agree Quint! O'Neill didn't even start at 7 for the 19's. Would be surprised if Many more forwards go into the academy next time around as they clearly have most forward bases covered. Moloney from Roscrea is quite impressive. Dardis is a shoe in and Byrne in two years will follow. Really don't see too many more obvious candidates. Outside bet is adam byrne from ucd who was on the 19s with Daly and Farrell depending on whether they make the Irish 20s. Any games tomorrow or Sat worth going to?
