Leinster vs Aironi Rugby Empty Leinster vs Aironi Rugby

Post by pete (buachaill on eirne) Thu 1 Mar 2012 - 12:58

G'day!
Think the team gets announced this afternoon.
Hoping we can get another 4 points on the board this week and come out injury free.

Looks like Luke is back in the mix and could get a run out, on top of that there are returning guys like Dom Ryan (3rd game back) and Conway (2nd game back) who would relish this to build momentum if they get selected.

Hoping we can still do some squad rotation and include the likes of Macken, Browne, Hagan, Ruddock, Ryan, Conway all get a run out to keep our lads fresh.

Any thoughts on the game? Other than it not being televised!? mad

It's being shown by RAI - an Italian station. I managed to watch the Treviso vs Munster game on their website, and I'm based in UK.

That’s very handy information. Thanks!

To the game, our backline looks really dangerous. Hope Fitzgerald can regain his form from earlier in the season, he really was electric. Conway and Carr joining him in the back 3, savage stuff.

Strong pack too and plenty of impact off the bench (Ryan, Auva’a and Íosa). Looks like Madigan will get sole placekicking responsibilities too. OK

Thanks Surrey much appreciated. Is it www.rai.it
???

Yeah like the look of the team. A set of ridiculously dangerous back 3 players!! Very exciting to look at. The idea that it could end up as

Boss-Madigan
Fitz-EOM
Carr-Íosa-Conway

makes my mouth water!!!!

Almost first choice pack with Internationals taken into account

Hurry up Mister Thorn - we've no bench cover for lock. Again.

Italy aren't playing this weekend, so i'd imagine Aironi will have their internationals back in the team.

McLaughlin is lock cover again and he will be used for sure because Browne is still hurting by the looks of things! Where is Ruddock? With Ireland or just dropped? Glad to see Avuav'a ahead of him (deservedly).

Thorn is becoming more and more desperatly needed. 1/4 final is getting closer and he still needs to bed in!

Have a look at the team sheet just one more time there Pete! Wink

If Thorn arrives when i hear he's supposed to (March 5th) he'll have 2 games before the QF, away to Munster and at home to Ospreys.

Arrogance aside...are we likely to get a TBP out of this?

Just checked RAI website and it's listed on RAI Sports 2 for 8pm Friday - don't know if this is a subscription channel like Sky Sports so will just have to wait and see

Thanks guys, hopefully will be able to watch it. Can imagine there being a lot of questions being frantically asked on here at about 8pm fri night!
Hopefully we can watch it and it's a good game

The game will be well over at 8 tomorrow. KO is 6 Irish time.

There are a few links to not so legal streams over on leinsterfans. They will be your only option. Just remember to log on at 6 rather than 8 Wink

Isa didn’t travel with the team apparently. Not an injury worry, but some family business, think his daughter is sick, although I don’t think it’s serious.

Darren Hudson takes his place as the 23rd man.

Sexton is still very much developing Fly but Madigan is also the real deal.

Sexton's decision making is what's letting him down. Billy, Scotland don't create chances.
