Another Mercenary gone to Toulon, this time Lee Halfpenny. Pathetic.

The crisis in Welsh provincial rugby is down to not enough people turning up to watch any of the sides. Sadly football is winning the battle. The players can't be bothered and as soon as a French owner comes along they demonstrate the loyalty of a two bit whore. Sure they will rouse themselves...

I think PRL, the English clubs, are ready to capitulate on governance and leave the unions in charge, thank God for everyone including the SH teams. There are rumours that BT are going to back down on TV coverage with a view to keeping the unions sweet for a plunge on the six nations, the real...

Are the Warriors of Gwlad planning to get out from behind their keyboards?

I don't think Irish Internationals would play in England no matter the money, "blind Sheehan" and at a time when so many of their fellow countrymen and women are struggling to make ends meet or are being forced, yet again, into economic exile. When you see all the players signing up in droves...

There are reports that, without the European element of the deal, the BT deal is worth no more than their old Sky one. The increase in the AP salary cap will just make the clubs even less profitable unless they manage to mug everyone else into joining their shitty tournament, which looks...

Zebo and Gilroy called up by St Joe.

The second division clubs in England are very unimpressed with the Regions joining the English league. Really can't see it happening. Reports in the Times today that BT are going to back down allowing Sky to carry on showing the tournament and it being run by the six nations commitee. As long as...

Apparently Earls' injury is not as bad as first thought, he has gone up to the Ireland camp and is being treated there so fingers crossed. Zebo will have to be called up after yesterday when he was different class in every aspect of the game including defence. I think the kick up the posterior...

SUFTUM. Toulouse result gives Munster the chance of a home QF. We fecking owe Embra, SUAF!!

He clearly believes that if you tell a lie often enough it becomes the truth.

Supporting Munster is the most fun you can have with your clothes on.

Think that is good management by Schmidt and Penney( he is on the bench for Sundays HC game as well). Going on the Lions was little short of a disaster for Zebo, he came back to Munster overweight and believing himself to be firmly settled in the Arrivals lounge frequented by other wasted...

Great news for Irish rugby. Puts some of the pro PRL journalists back in their box as well. Unbelievable craic in Gloucester last weekend for the Heineken cup game, full house with five or six thousand Munster fans out singing the Gloucester fans. Lords knows how much money we put into the local...

Thought some of you might be interested in my report of the Dragons V Munster game I attended on friday night. True enough but the Dragons are playing very well this year. The fella I was sat next to confirmed I wasn't imagining how well organised they were. He thinks it is as good as he had...

Rumours that Fat Serge is going to stick with the ERC like Toulon. Very odd weekend on MF with a rake of new posters turning up on a charm offensive, although one of their number shat the bed when they started bringing up politics and the north of the Island and then set about insulting the...

Still no word out of the meeting. For those who are interested, this thread might be of interest, http://www.munsterfans.com/threads/33536-The-Future-of-the-Heineken-Cup-In-Doubt/page101?p=1288145#post1288145

Rampant: "I saw my name mentioned on this thread earlier as I tweeted some inside info last night. To expand on that 140 characters: There was a meeting yesterday between ALL Unions and the PRL/LNR. ERC werent invited. The meeting lasted all day and finished late last night. Agreement in...

Don't think the fat lady is singing quite yet. The WRU have not come out in support of the franchises and it is being reported that this is an attempt by the regions to grab power from the WRU. Lots of welsh supporters seem disappointed with the regions' stance.

"STATEMENT MADE ON BEHALF OF THE FOUR WELSH REGIONS BY REGIONAL RUGBY WALES "Regional Rugby Wales (RRW) on behalf of the four Welsh Regions confirms its full support for the proposed new Rugby Champions Cup Competitions. “Whilst there remain elements of detail to be confirmed, it is now clear...
