    If Scotland go out this weekend, they'll likely have a few players back too

    So could we.... obviously hopefully not.

    Leinster must have the highest contingent of players playing at the World Cup surely?

    Also Ian McKinley launched a petition to let him play versus Irish sides when using his eye goggles, I'm sure people here wouldn't mind signing it

    Signed. The lad should be allowed play in Ireland when Zebre are scheduled to play here. There was 5,979 signed so far.

    Either Leinster or Glasgow. Both have over 20 away at the world cup. Leinster probably edge it with the 2 recent call ups.

    I reckon the new Argentina super rugby team has the most players.

    Seeing as they're not due to make their debut until 2016 I think we can discount them :P

    well for the sake of completion

    UAR = 21 players
    Leinster = 18 players
    Glasgow = 17 players

    Yeah dunno why I thought Leinster had more away, 19 counting Kirchner.

    Presuming those are just the Scottish Glasgow callups? They definitely mentioned Glasgow had 21 players away during the Munster Glasgow match, Nakarawa and Matawalu(has he moved to Bath?) would be 2 more.

    Edit: Puafisi for Tonga was another

    I saw someone tweeting that Leinster had 25 away at the World Cup, are your figures correct?

    Who tweeted it? Where are you getting 25 from?
    There has been 18/19 in irish squad and Kirchner? Where are the other 4/5 coming from?

    Maybe they could reach that number including ex-Leinster players?

    There are 20 Leinster at the world cup now, (21 if we include Greyling because Old Wesley are leinster branch), but like 4 or 5 who would be playing are injured. So I guess they were tweeting the amount we have unavailable to pick from.

    And he could have started Luke McGrath. And the last crowd didn't need to use Molony or JVDF a lot of the times that they did. This is a complete red herring.


    I'm not really sure what your point is tbh

    But would you have to exclude non Leinster produced players then like Reddan, Strauss, etc?

    Okay I give up.
    6 front rowers (Healy, McGrath, Strauss, Cronin, Ross, Furlong)
    2 locks (Toner, McCarthy)
    4 back-rowers (Ruddock, O'Brien, Murphy, Heaslip)
    1 scrum-half (Reddan)
    2 out-halves (Sexton, Madigan)
    2 wings (Kearney, Fitzgerald)
    2 full-backs (Kearney, Kirchner)

    Who's the 20th?

    Did AJ McGinty play Leinster schools?

    Are you sure you're not thinking of my post when I mentioned the 19 players at the RWC plus the injuries plus Lockys retirement means we're down 24-25 players?

    No it was a tweet but they might well have meant 25 players not being available for selection.

    I'm happily optimistic about the game tonight.

    We've scored more and conceded less tries than Lanelli so far.

    Granted the opposition haven't exactly the same, though Lanelli only got 1 try away to Zebre, but it shows we can play abit and their defence isn't stellar.

    Leinster by 10,000,000 if you ask me!

    Has leavy played much at 8 under age? He always struck me as a really out and out 7. I'd have taught Ryan or vdf would be a bit more suited to 8.
