I wonder how many turned the sound down and listened to RTE radio 1 commentary on the radio.

With all the swearing Drico was doing at Rolland sure you couldn't make out the commentary anyhow.

At least Varley didnt tell the ref to shut the f up this time.

Can we just get to the nub of the issue here, the Jordi Murphy/Tommy O'Donnell debate is over, Schmidt needs to do what's best for Ireland and pick the best players at his disposal. Shane Jennings showed that TOD has a long way to go before he can be considered a viable option.

Jennings for Ireland, come on Joe, don't let this talk of Munster quota's get in the way of what you do best, winning.

Jenno has probably missed the boat at this stage.
