It's typical of the administrators of junior rugby, as soon as anything starts to look like a problem they bury their heads in the sand and hope it goes away by the start of next season. I don't think this one will.

As Clanwilliam also DID NOT hand over a team sheet prior to the game starting who is at fault here. Clan were beaten on the field, beaten at the hearing on Thursday night and now are going to appeal again. When are they going to work out that they were beaten. They get a good gate last Sunday and now they have handed €650 of it back to the branch. Now thats real clever......
kerrang you are so wrong. clan did hand over a team sheet - a fact acknowledged by the branch committee
Clanwilliam did not hand over a team sheet until 10 mins into the matchOriginally Posted by yellowandblack4ever
A senior member and key person of Galbally RFC told me on phone when talking about other things that they had been docked over 20 points. Just casual chat of course but he certainly believed it to be true, then.

There's a couple of interesting games in the next round which is scheduled for next weekend, cons to play munsters, cashel play crosshaven.
Anyone know the draw for the plate? Deadsite still has us down to play "Team 1"
does anyone have the fixtures for the next round of the junior cup
A quick look at munsterrugby would have got you the draw for the next round

did Ben martin play with clonmel yesterday? how did he get on?
Saw him play for UL bohs on friday night and he was very poor at that level. he gave away a silly knock on in his 22 that allowed bruff to score a try to win and his kicking out of hand was very bad...
then again he did only come on for 40 minutes.
Who cares? He has been talked about too much all year. Average player at best
One wonders why Kilfeacle did not hand over a team sheet before the game like every other team does.Ever since the Paul o Connell incident I have no respect for them.
think abbeyfeale/muskerry cresent/pres
what happened there??
anyone at the galbally v con game???seemed to be a bit of trouble again 4 yellow cards and 1 red!galbally cant stay out of trouble can they...pushed con pretty hard on fairness to them(based on the writeup in the paper anyway)!any players stand out for con as they would be favourites for the cup???
as someone that was at the galbally cons match. cons were good galbally were missing few key players and as your comment about galbally trouble red card belongs too cons and two yellows also too cons galbally yellow cards for killing ball and coming in from off side. galbally should have won but cons cup experience came too the front in closing stages
cheers for clearing that up!any stand out players for con or was it just an all round team effort??
I was at Clonmel to watch the seconds play a friendly against waterpark and I watched a fair bit of Clonmel Junior cup match, Ben played a great game from what I could see and Kicked 2 extremely difficult kicks from the edge of the pitch. Based on this performance "Average player at best" is a poor comment, he's well above this level in my mind.
His coaching ideas seem solid enough too, I'd keep an eye on Clonmel!!! They could have a big say yet.
Although I appricate away to richmond is not one they'll be looking forward too!!!!
Waterpark seconds had a few lads from the firsts playing against a YOUNG clonmel seconds side and waterpark really struggled... Dunno was them been bad or do clonmel have a few good 19's on the way up?
what fool said he was an average player he is the best outhalf in the league by a mile cant see them beating richmond do not in the canal differant team down there
maybe whoever said that saw him play a bad game..bcos he is a quality outhalf(never knew he played a few times fior munster back in like 05 or 06)..although there are a few handy outhalfs in the league this year...
Saw him twice this season and dominated both times, he was still Clonmels best player though and you could see he knew how to play.

Thanks and looking forward to the series this year.
Best of luck with the interpros.best of luck to all of the lads selected but given what I would see (as would plenty of others on this forum) as a flawed, biased and politically motivated selection policy, I'll hold off on downloading this or actively following the team.
I do wish the guys selected the best.
junior cup this weekend...what junior clubs are gonna stay in it do ppl reckon???
gonna chance my arm and say:
Cashel
Con
Christians
Richmond
Kilfeacle
Skibb
Interested to know what experience you have of selection policy?
In what respect?
If you mean with the Munster Juniors, plenty. Irrespective of this, any representative team that is largely selected from the lower divisions of any league program is most certainly flawed, particularly when you look at the representation from clubs that have a club member on the selection committee. you do not have to be involved in the selection policy to see this
Thats a fair point, cup tied teams make it difficult to select players tho, also are players bothered after a long season? Do many players turn down the opportunity I wonder?
Loads of them do Cookie, this debate was had this time last year too. Loads of fellas are carrying knocks as well this time of year, particulalrly Div 1 players, and a lot genuinely dont give a ****. Having one MJ season is enough for most of em
