Surprisingly little indeed; I suspect it's because most of us had never heard of him? Surprisingly little comment about the article in the Indo concerning the...
Kiss is highly rated in Aussie rugby circles; a few Wallaby fans seem to have wanted him involved in their new setup, or at least with one of the S14 sides. ...

Wishful thinking, Richard, I'd say. I suspect something in the Participation Agreement says that there is little Munster (or any other club) can do about...
It could be worse. In 2006, we didn't find out until a month to go if Bath v Leinster was on a Friday, Saturday or Sunday, and with a couple of weeks to go the...
