'One level of mediocrity to the next': Former Wallabies captain slams Aussie rugby

Ok thanks, that clears that up.

What I have heard is that a significant number now to to Uni. outside Ireland. In my day it was Queen’s or Trinity, a few to UCD.”

Apologies, you are correct, I was thinking about Universities! I had heard that amore students were being educated outside of Ireland but mixed that up with fee paying schools. Would this affect potential rugby careers or would promising rugby players tend to stay in Ireland?

Wider question but I’ve often taught sevens was the way to break kids more generally into rugby. Say for example, Ireland had a successful 2023 RWC. Volume of rugby playing population could be quickly expanded via sevens then building pathways for promising looking 15s players etc.

He won the Senior Munster Cup when he was there. As a snapshot at what it was like in the 50s: he claimed a Cork team used to win most years then (Presentation College I think) as a victory celebration they used to kick the Cup down St Patricks hill (notoriously steep hill in Cork City Centre). The year Rockwell run, Presentation had paper marche-ed the cup back together from the previous years kick down St Patricks Hill. They assumed their guy would be the guy lifting the cup and he knew to be careful. With the shock Rockwell victory my Dad got to lift the cup and there was no gentleness only ecstacy. Unfortunately, he lifted so hard the two lugs detached and he hoisted the lugs in the air with the cup staying put. Presentation got the last laugh there!

Not sure if prez still kick it down Patricks Hill, maybe O’Gara would know!

Nearly no one goes to school across the water… the state education in the North is largely excellent so by sending your children across the water you're either sacrificing their education or paying monstrous fees. I would love to know where the impression of Ulster pupils going to GB schools comes from?

Re club rugby: t's a good question. Overall, AIL clubs haven't been at the forefront of developing players in Ulster and certainly more could be done. But in comparison to yesteryear or to Leinster,I would say it's not that different. How many of the Leinster players went to fee paying schools? How many came up through the clubs instead of the schools?

I can understand why the citing was not taken forward, because having to answer to a citing panel normally presumes the guilt of the cited player and they have to prove their innocence. But it’s just not sustainable that there is nothing between being cited on suspicion of foul play and “no case to answer”.

I think rugby needs an Incident Panel that can be used to investigate serious injuries or controversial incidents where there is the possibility of an officiating error or foul play, that can be used to explain the decision taken on the pitch and set the future precedent for how it should be officiated.

For instance, it would be helpful for fans, players and officials to understand how Beirne’s entry to the ruck in which Dupont was injured met the standard of care that players owe to each other, and where the line is drawn between a legal ruck entry and a reckless one.

From my perspective, there are no easy fixes. The other provinces are battling a continuous decline, one which the IRFU aren't really fussed about as long as their boys in blue are succeeding.

And out of interest, how many players were developed through Connacht? Was Henshaw the only Connacht raised player who actually played in the 6 nations this year?

It all started with a dream and a single email. I’d been saving Bitc0in for years, hoping to buy my first home. On a rainy Tuesday, I received what looked like an urgent message from my wallet provider, asking me to verify my account details. The email was polished, the logo perfect, and the urgency felt real. Without thinking twice, I clicked the link and entered my credentials. It wasn’t until hours later, when I checked my wallet and saw a balance of zero, that the horror sank in. My 2.5 BTC, worth over $150,000, was gone. The scammer had drained it through a series of rapid transactions, scattering it across the blockchain like digital dust in the wind.

I was devastated. My dream of homeownership vanished in a click, and I felt like a fool. Days blurred into a haze of panic and regret until I stumbled upon GrayHat Hacks online. Their testimonials spoke of miracles, st0len crypt0 recovered, lives restored. Desperate, I reached ou to them. They explained that while Bitc0in’s blockchain is public, tracing st0len funds is like finding a needle in a haystack. But they had the tools: proprietary software that could analyze transaction patterns, identify wallet clusters, and potentially link the scammer’s address to an exchange where the funds might be frozen.

GrayHat Hacks dove into the blockchain, following the trail of my st0len Bitc0in as it hopped from wallet to wallet. They used advanced clustering algorithms to group addresses likely controlled by the same entity, narrowing down the scammer’s footprint. Then came the breakthrough: one of the wallets was tied to a known exchange. It was a tense few hours, but I eventually received the email I’d been praying for, my Bitc0in was recovered.

GrayHat Hacks expertise turned what felt like an impossible loss into a second chance. They even took the time to teach me how to spot phishing scams, ensuring I’d never fall victim again. If you’re reading this, heart pounding after a crypt0 nightmare, know that GrayHat Hacks is the real deal. They’re not just technicians; they’re lifesavers, blending cutting-edge blockchain analysis with a human touch. My dream of a home is back on track, and I owe it all to them.

Wishing AD a speedy recovery
