His baby daughter is ill in hospital, hopefully she gets well soon, keeps everything in perspective.

Hopefully everything is alright and it's just a percaution.

Dave Kearney into the replacements. Other than being Rob's brother can't say I know much about him. How's he been doing for Leinster?

Meh. Not really a first 15 starter but good at times. Like Rob, steady if unspectacular.

Disappointing for Earls but understandable.  Hopefully the child gets well soon.

Kearney Jnr is a lot like the brother, has the potential to be even better.  More of a FB than winger imo as well but will be difficult to get in there at Leinster with Rob playing so well not to mention Nacewa.

A move to Ulster could possible be good for him in the future if he wants to play FB.  Just putting it out there!!!

IMO Nacewa is a tremendous FB, much better than Kearny. When I seen him bought first I thought he was typical of the Pacific players you see playing backs in England; fast, strong and stupid. However he has a good defensive game, excellent kicking and receiving game and is a excellent counter-attacker. All in all, one of the top FB's about.

He is a great FB but Leinster are going to be likely to be forced to play Kearney there for the forseeable future at Mr Kidneys request.

These f**king Welsh are Kerry of the GAA world. We'll be toothless, deaf old men and the Welsh will still be roaring in our ear how they were robbed during the WC by a completely uncalled-for application of the rules. Christ Almighty, at least the Kerry lads could claim that Darby might actually have gave him a wee dunt in the back.

Why do France wear white and Italy blue when the game is in France.

trileacman

Dunno pat. France backs with Italian forwards would be a lethal combination. Malzeui and picamoles have been tremendous.

Scotland England is tough to watch, totally error strewn, would like to think tomorrow's will be much higher quality

In rugby its normally the home team that changes jersey if there is a clash of colours.
