Jerry Flannery is a great addition to this, for the rugby knowledge and stories, but mostly because he is like the grumpy ould fella to the two cheeky pups. The more agitated he is, the more entertaining it is for them AND for us 😂 #winning #grumpyoldflan

My new idea.Min of 5 years residency and 10 caps for your team before you can go to a World Cup..so no more poaching and bolter and a degree of Loyalty to members of the squad. Pat in West Cork
