THIS WEEK’S GUEST
FULL TIME TAKES
Christy O’Connor
Good win with some good tries, but it was very poor opposition. My big concern was that we still went with brute force so often to get the ball over the line. It worked because it was a poor Zebre team, it’s not going to work against better teams (last week) and it certainly won’t work in the cup.
Delighted Harry, Luke and Alex all had a great game.
Gavin Hegarty
If Osbourne’s red is a red then I worry for rugby. He contested the ball, never even saw the zebra player. Rugby collision, end of. You should not be able to get a red for merely playing the game.
The kids did well but at one stage they were within 5 of us and we had dominated every aspect of the game.
Harry is looking great, he could usurp Sam soon enough.
Chris McDonnell
A fair amount of the crowd turned up to see casper Gabriel make his debut. Leo again couldn’t care less about the leinster supporters. 5 minutes in a game that was won as soon as their 9 got his red card.
