I flew to Canada this week to go to a Paul McCartney concert and I wrote about it here:

If there was nothing wrong with the shoulder charge earlier, there was nothing wrong with that one.

I am calling upon the people of Ireland to immediately begin construction of a thread on this site about how you or someone you know was roasted for a fashion choice. We need it. All roasts must have come from Irish people *only*. Please respect this important rule, it makes a difference. Tanks

Any chance of a DMac sabbatical to Leinster? One of my absolute favourite players.

Quite a lot of the 'well Japan were tired in that last 30 minutes' narrative going around. Okay, but cutting out the sloppiness of our own making has nothing to do with their tiredness.

To be clear, I donât begrudge Farrell his debut. BUT can you imagine the absolute headloss that would be currently unfolding if we were giving a cap to a 32 year old player who played for Leinster.

The absolute indignity of being asked about a (false) bad review from 2017 when trying to book a house on AirBnB. Take your âŹ500 for 2 days and gâway. A hotel would never.

I wrote something about respectability in dress over on Twitter. The topic is nuanced for me, so unfortunately the post had to be long. Since Bluesky (reasonably) has character limits, I can't easily import the text here. So I'm including screenshots, if you would like to read it.

Huge amount of nastiness from Munster fans towards Conor Murray following the release of his book & the particular extracts in the paper. One of the greatest Irish & Munster players. Top 3~ in his position of all time. Contextualise & critique his comments, but donât disavow your own legend.

The child is demanding we âwatch Nemoâ at half time. Will probably make more sense of the match than any pundit ever has.

The main thing that the Lions brings into focus for me is how much of a loss that Sky Sports is to rugby as a media & broadcasting partner. The sport is much worse off without them involved. They know how to sell a sporting product better than anybody else.

Very funny that Joe McCarthy has gotten more stick for being selected for Ireland over the last year than he has for being selected for the Lions. Not a peep from the English or the Scots. Telling.

Leinster back in pre-season today - seems a bit of a short break if you ask me. Not sure this is good for the long term health of the players. Impossible to implement up in this hemisphere, but domestic rugby should have a hard stop by the end of May to ensure players get a decent break.
