Poor Tony ward might realise this weekend it was poor defence not a great game last week lol it's bad when us GAA lads know more about the game then rugby lads haha"]You have a very strange anti rugby attitude and no gaa lads don't know more about the game than rugby lads"]Reading your posts every now and again I think GAA lads do know more about rugby than some rugby lovers."]You are very bitter about rugby. Whys that. Your posts on rugby are more than a Bit pathetic."]Oh I don't like the over hyped game of rugby and I don't deny that but as far as I know that's allowed in this country. I've listened to many rugby fans over the years putting down the GAA (and soccer even more) in the media and in daily life so if I'm pathetic there are thousands of equally pathetic rugby fans out there."]Interestingly Tony didn't say anything about the GAA this weekend lol"]I think it's important to recognise that the Leinster rugby crowd and the Munster rugby crowd are very very different.

I don't like the game at all. It's very much a bias on my part. Not everyone who's interested in the game is like this of course, but in my experience the rugby lads I know are social climbers who consider GAA to be outdated, backwards and something of a bygone era. Incidentally a lot of them don't actually play any sport. They're into rugby for the benefit of their careers.

Same lads when asked where they're from will say they're European......

Far from it.

I'm simply recounting my own experience with I understand is very limited.
