Ireland winning a series against India in cricket Fucking hell

The Top14 in a nutshell is Montpellier score a penalty, Toulouse a try

I got zero sympathy for Arsenal after losing that game Score after 6 minutes and decide to shut up shop after that and abandon the set piece completely in the 90 minutes

Arsenal not getting a decision by VAR is honestly hilarious 🤣

Danny O Brien @dannyedobrien.bsky.social · 30/05/2026

God Arsenal scoring early was the worst thing that could have happened in this game They'll just dig in now and stop everything

That sums up the #bulvmun game Munster go through multiple energy sapping phases for both their scores The Bulls score two back to back off first phase Also when did Irish sides catching from kicks get so bad!!!!

That's great news to hear For the occasion alone the Top14 final is worth the watch

Danny O Brien @dannyedobrien.bsky.social · 28/05/2026

Ummmmm Leinster really need to reassess things if this is the mindset at the moment

000

Danny O Brien @dannyedobrien.bsky.social · 25/05/2026

I love the fact as well that you have Pop still so involved with the team as well

000

Danny O Brien @dannyedobrien.bsky.social · 25/05/2026

Didn't expect them to win another game this series so will definitely take it

000

Danny O Brien @dannyedobrien.bsky.social · 24/05/2026

Sobering weekend for Irish clubs across the board Utterly outclassed in both finals and no easy solutions for competing with French sides who have depth but especially with UBB play rugby the way you'd want champions to play

Danny O Brien @dannyedobrien.bsky.social · 19/04/2026

Good piece on one of the more significant trades of recent seasons

000

Danny O Brien @dannyedobrien.bsky.social · 28/03/2026

Two BPs is a nice return from Loftus, especially after how heavy a week this was. Connacht away in May could be season defining.

It's the small little things that are frustrating for Munster at the moment Lineout five metres out is the prime example

Danny O Brien @dannyedobrien.bsky.social · 28/03/2026

Which may be a bit of a worry for the Wallabies

Tomorrow I'm joined by @samlstandsup.bsky.social author of Attacking the Space: Inside Rugby's Tactical and Data Revolution. We chat about his book, the key areas of the game that it sheds light on and the tactical and data revolution that has taken #rugby by storm. www.lccr.ie

In the last two years we've had the best Rugby Championship and one of the best Six Nations in terms of drama and teams being able to beat each other The summer tours will be a good watch But the fact there is no Rugby Championship is so infuriating

When they then go on to lose the game all you can think is, karma

000

Danny O Brien @dannyedobrien.bsky.social · 14/03/2026

That stood out in particular Ireland got their scores in double quick time Scotland had to slog at the line

000

Danny O Brien @dannyedobrien.bsky.social · 14/03/2026

Great game to watch Scotland third quarter scored some terrific scores That first 40 and lack of points when they got into the 22 Vs Irelands hit rate in the 22 swung it Irelands way #irevsco

010

Danny O Brien @dannyedobrien.bsky.social · 14/03/2026

Top right stat has been the most telling so far #irevsco Scotland getting into the redzone but not able to convert it into points so far Making some bad handling errors as well

010

Danny O Brien @dannyedobrien.bsky.social · 08/03/2026

This is on the back of a terrific Rugby Championship as well Can't but be good for the sport to have things this level

010

Danny O Brien @dannyedobrien.bsky.social · 08/03/2026

Yeah like maybe only Cork compare in getting so far ahead of themselves

000

Danny O Brien @dannyedobrien.bsky.social · 08/03/2026

God that is a lot of time to be in the wrong part of the field

010

Danny O Brien @dannyedobrien.bsky.social · 04/03/2026

I wonder will they take a leaf out of the Springboks playbook pre 2019 and strip back their game to it's bare basics Not much time for him to totally rebuild things

000

Danny O Brien @dannyedobrien.bsky.social · 03/03/2026

Some good insights on what trends have arisen in the three rounds of the Six Nations

You realise how good a job they're doing with #rugby in France when this is the setting for a ProD2 game on a Thursday night. Available live on the FRUKrugby YouTube channel.

Danny O Brien @dannyedobrien.bsky.social · 11/01/2026

Discipline is an issue across the board for Irish sides, and it goes back to last year's Six Nations We also seem to be making a mess of comms with the ref. Seems to whiny and turns the ref against them

Danny O Brien @dannyedobrien.bsky.social · 10/01/2026

If you're Leinster in the second half, avoid scrims like the plague #leivlar

Danny O Brien @dannyedobrien.bsky.social · 10/01/2026

La Rochelles lineout execution has been horrendous so far #leivlar

Wonder why I struggle to take Austin Healey seriously

Danny O Brien @dannyedobrien.bsky.social · 12/05/2025

Being in Thomond Park Friday night was great Being in the corner O Mahony scored that try, priceless

Danny O Brien @dannyedobrien.bsky.social · 04/05/2025

Nail on the head, like anyone starting out in the pro game he needs to bulk out a bit which will take time

000

Danny O Brien @dannyedobrien.bsky.social · 03/05/2025

Will take time to get used to him not being coach Been there the whole time I've followed the Spurs since 1997

000

Danny O Brien @dannyedobrien.bsky.social · 03/05/2025

We'll find out Thursday whether players will actually be picked on form or whether the 37 was already picked before today

010

Danny O Brien @dannyedobrien.bsky.social · 03/05/2025

Happened a few times today as well

000

Danny O Brien @dannyedobrien.bsky.social · 03/05/2025

And a player who was other worldly in the previous round too

000

Danny O Brien @dannyedobrien.bsky.social · 03/05/2025

Games like that are why we love the sport of #rugby Northampton stood up, showed huge cahones and fully deserved the win For Leinster, I don't know where they go from here #leivnor
