- @JoannaSchaff I loved Magician and some of Feist’s spin off series but they got too many for me, quality dropped around Princes, Merchan … in reply to JoannaSchaff #

- In hindsight, the secondhand bookshop that opened within walking distance of my school really didn’t help my exam results. #
- Mind you, they also decided to hold the Rugby World Cup right when I was doing exams too. Fatal combination really. #
- Ok, time to head to Croker, hope to see Leinster do it, but feel it’s unlikely #
- Croker jammed. Lot of Munsterfans around. I’m concerned about catching flu from the swine :) #
- Croker wont show replay, fair yellow? I though he was committed #
- Disaster :-( #
- Happy enough with 5pt lead at 1/2time. I’d prefer if 50% of our team wasn’t broken #
- Voice gone. Incredible performance by Leinster :-) #
- Just home. Voice completely gone from shouting at the game. What an incredible performance by Leinster. Pics uploading. #

- @MiriamAhern Looks like we’ll be wearing the blue jersey after all. I’m still in shock :) #
- I also have some nice video of “the best fans in the world” leaving early, that’ll go on YouTube at some point ;) #
- Munster fans, I won’t apologies for that, you know you’re overbearing about that so take it on the chin :) #
- Looking at the pics, I see the way they cross-checkered the Leinster & Munster fans. It’s pretty cool but I’d prefer they didn’t do that #
- @holyschmoke I was full sure Munster would win, just unsure by how much. I keep repeating “incredible” but only way to describe Leinster. in reply to holyschmoke #
- @willcarling said “Munster by 21” << I thought he might be right, especially when our backline was destroyed by injury. #
- @holyschmoke Putting my Ireland jersey on, I’m very concerned that some of our Lions have done serious damage to their rep today. Not good. in reply to holyschmoke #
- @holyschmoke I think he realises he’s in trouble. A 26 week ban is norm for deliberate eye-gouging. I didn’t see incident enough to judge. in reply to holyschmoke #
- I watched videos of the Quinlan incident. I think it will get him the minimum eyegouging 12 wk ban. Deserved. Unfortunate timing for Lions. #
- @cgallagher @holyschmoke It was stupid. I want him on the Lions, but that incident must deserve a ban. Positive: maybe Jennings gets called! in reply to cgallagher #
- @cgallagher @holyschmoke I don’t wish it on him, but he MUST get cited for it. Nasty incident. Potential 12-26 wk ban means out of Lions. in reply to cgallagher #
