Think it’s fair the say the Nienbar decision has not worked out for Leinster. He promised defensive innovation, a winning hard edge to get it over the line but the team is weaker. 7 tries concede vs Northampton and 5 in 40 mins today. Time for him and Cullen to go. #LEIvUBB

When are European governments going to stand up and use all levers available to stop this. Israel should be isolated from western governments and treated like apartheid SA. As I child I always believed we wouldn’t let this happen- why aren’t the “good guys” standing up?
- 👏👏👏👏👏👏 @AlexCrawfordSky This is how you report Israeli attempts to demonise the journalists they murder. The contrast with @BBCNews extraordinary. @SkyNews rightly leading with the story.

The victory scenes after the final whistle yesterday. St Mary’s College winning their sixth title. 1961, 66, 69, 94, 02 and now 2026. Cotter, Moloney, Hickey’s and Sexton, the old heroes. Andrew McGauran, Paul Neary, Joe Christle and Co, yesterday was about them👏

I don’t get it. If Hezbollah had flats in this block (unlikely in central Beirut but not impossible) why did the Israelis give everyone inside an hour to get out — including those they wanted to kill? And if there weren’t any Hezbollah people there, why destroy a building with dozens of civilians in it?
An Israeli airstrike struck an apartment building in central Beirut, on Wednesday. The Israeli army had warned residents to evacuate about an hour before completely flattening it as day broke.

Subscription TV providers outbidding each other for the same product (or regularly less by breaking up sports rights across multiple subscription) and passing on crazy increases to their customers…. And customers walk away.
'Dodgy box' usage seems to be a strange hobby horse topic for the Indo for some reason. Does this really merit a front page?!

Fun Fact: Before playing Ser Duncan the Tall in HBO’s ‘A KNIGHT OF THE SEVEN KINGDOMS,’ Peter Claffey was a Rugby player! 🏉 He featured, and scored, in Ireland’s 2016 Under-20s Six Nations, playing alongside Andrew Porter, James Ryan, Jacob Stockdale and Hugo Keenan.

Australia just recorded zero cervical cancer cases in women under 25 - for the first time since records began in 1982. This is what happens when a country commits to HPV vaccination and screening. We protect our girls and save lives.

Is there another fanbase in the world as delusional as the SA rugby community? There can be very little argument about any of the recent red cards, and perhaps some energy at their own players reckless behaviour would benefit more than tin foil hat theories
I'm actually anticipating a red card next week Not because of what happened today, but because Ireland are a cunning team who will spend all of next week rehearsing a move that manufactures a red card It's tactical gamesmanship!

The €3m is great and well well overdue. It’s still a drop in the ocean, GPA got an extra €1.5m today (they now get €7.2m from gov coffers) while the horse racing gets €80 million and greyhound racing gets €20 million. LOI and athletics facilities/funding still shocking
‘A vote of confidence in the future of football in Ireland’ – Government ministers explain reasons for LOI academy funding but Patrick O'Donovan stresses FAI will be on 'collision course' with him if they repeat recent Oireachtas Committee stunt independent.ie/sport/soccer/…

politicians lining up to congratulate a mediocre performance shows how invested people are in intl football. It really moves the dial. Same politicians cosied up to Delaneys FAI in return for tickets & ego trips Irish football needs gov support, it can’t wait #IREHUN

I have to offer a begrudging and jealous congrats to Shels & Shams. What a ride and a great achievement Two LOI teams in groups, a league written off, ignored and left to rot is now proving it can thrive against the odds We need gov backing & more days like this will happen

Kenny should do the decent thing and resign immediately. This project of his is poison- he is a busted flush. @stpatsfc
