Harry Byrne is absolutely the right choice to start for Leinster tonight.
He's been excellent all season and deserves the opportunity to show his stuff on a big stage.
I hope he shoots the lights out.

With the exception of a few individual performances, notably Odogbo & Casey, nothing about this has been good enough.
Anything short of a convincing win against Gloucester next week and McMillan's new era will start to look more like another false dawn for @Munsterrugby #BATvMUN

JJ Hanrahan has been far better this half but Munster still making way too many basic errors, there's been a complete breakdown of fundamentals.
There's serious questions need to be asked about Munster's on-field leadership and decision making without Crowley.

Cooked some Japanese food tonight. Pork belly, slow cooked, lightly brushed with soy & togarashi. I trimmed the ends & cut them into pieces, fried them off & used the rendered fat to cook the egg for my fried rice.

Driving on a back road from Courtmacsherry to Timoleague, you can look out your car window and see a view like this.
If it were a painting you'd probably think it was almost too pretty.

In West Cork, on a road that goes nowhere, is a monument to a man who voyaged to the end of the earth.
It proves that where you're from places no restrictions on where you can go.

Mack Hansen has a lot of truly special talents, but by far and away his most impressive talent is his ability to look like like a roofer from Tubbercurry.

That was Ireland's best try of the night, super kick and contest to set up the play, controlled possession, recycling quickly, forcing Australia to scramble back into defensive position until a gap opens and Doris powers through.
Great conversation from Crowley too.

It says a lot that people are raving about the one tackle that Prendergast made, and saying nothing about the two big ones he missed, we're lucky that only one lead to a try.
We've seen nothing from him we haven't seen before, no sign of improvement in problem areas.

Second half I'd like to see us take the ball to the line more, look to suck in the Australian defence for 3 or 4 phases so when do go wide or kick in behind we have a better chance of getting something from it instead of contesting 50/50s.

Once you set aside the Hansen hatrick hysteria (and he's been superb) this is a 5 point game.
We're not controlling the game, we're living off a few excellent moments.
This is a decidedly average Australian team at the end of a long hard season.
I'd give us a 6

Another sold-out crowd in Cardiff, the loyalty of Welsh rugby fans in the face of continued losses and poor performances combined with the ineptitude and mismanagement of the WRU is truly amazing.
These fans deserve so much more.

As long as our lineout is an utter shambles we will struggle to implement any sort of game plan no matter who the opposition is.
However, the better the opposition is the more we will be punished for it.
