I know he was just joking and I'm sure he'll give it his best shot, but doesn't really give out the best message.

That was foolish no doubt about it and he came across as a bit of show ponny in saying so. What's the problem about playing in the row when you are 196 cm 115 kg?
Yes. For all you can make fun of the likes of Kellock, there's no way he would have done something like that if asked to move out of position. I'm sure it seemed light hearted when he wrote it but he will inevitably be assused of clearly preferring to stand in the backline polishing his tiara. His team need him to pony up and start walloping POC and he's played with Gilchrist in the boiler house before. If I detect the slightest indifference to playing today, then I'll suggest very strongly on these boards that he should p!ss off and leave the players who actually are interested in playing to take the team shirts.

Very soft and disappointing try to concede just before half time. Why didn't Visser find touch?

John Ryan looks great in the lose! Only Munster forward who is running direct with ball in hand! Don't think I've ever seen the Munster tight 5 offload in contact so much!

Cuthbert's tackling is normally strong.

If we can get a lbp from this it will be a miracle.

This TBP win is exactly what Munster needed. I kind of felt that Munster would hit back hard after last weekends loss.

So having the ball passed at your hand as your arms are outstretched to make a tackle is a YC and penalty try, but a kick is only a talking to?! FFS

In the words of Sven-Goran Eriksson "First half good; second half not so good"

Edinburgh V Munster - Page 3 Sven%20Goran%20Eriksson%20of%20England%20%20pulls%20a%20face%20during%20the%20Barclays%20Premiership%20match%20between%20Charlton%20Athletic%20and%20Newcastle%20United

I do feel Edinburgh are in the middle of a rebuilding and they actually have the coach who can pull it off. Still not a very good side but Solomons is entitled to point to green shoots and I think once they've had a full pre-season under him you'll begin to see Edinburgh be more competitive with regards to qualifying for the ERcC.

Keep the faith Edinburgh fans.

Denton shouldn't tour in the summer. Form doesn't justify it. Beattie and Wilson should tour as the options at 8.

Matt Scott should find a better club, and one that plans to use him in the correct position.

We are back where we started this season, and Solomons should consider his position.
