Munster Heineken Cup Champions

As it turns out my prediction was wrong, we didn't make it. ( sobs )

That in the end is the great thing about sport, one can never be sure. Well Munster got to the semi-final anyway and as it turns out they were playing another Irish team who they had already beaten three times at different times in the season. We were confident that we were home and dry. We were comprehensively thrashed by Leinster and when all is said and done, they played by far the better game and were deserving winners. Hats off to them.

The game was played at Croke Park, the home ground for the all amateur Gaelic games association. For centuries they only allowed Gaelic sports but amidst much controversy over the past few years they have allowed rugby and soccer games to be played at International level while their home grounds are being rebuilt. As it turns out the Munster, Leinster game two weeks ago attracted a world record breaking crowd for a club rugby game, close to 83000 people. Something, really something and still we lost. Never mind we will it win again next year.

We still have the newly appointed British Lions rugby captain and Munster captain Paul O Connel who will lead the lions tour to South Africa in summer, amongst many other Lions picks but sadly one of the players chosen will miss the tour having been found guilty of eye gouging, and has received a twelve week ban.

OK I was one game short in this prediction, but it doesn't matter as only two men and a dog visited the lens anyway and at least we still have an Irish team in tomorrow's final who will win of course. And win they did, congratulations Leinster.

Adios Amigos.
