I know he doesn't really have any obligations to us fans but it can't just be me who finds his social media presence incredibly frustrating.

Well spotted Scooby Doo. The mystery rolls on...


Well fair play yo Marnitz - hes entertaining at the very least :huh:


If Boshoff leaves and no NIQ spot is used there, we have handy solutions, in addition to Marsh

1) George Cullen, IQ from London Scottish
2) Bring back the ex-Connacht Academy Sean O'Hagan


Marsh would be a good signing, he is in the system so to speak and needs the game time as Ross Byrne and Carbery have passed him out in Leinster, leading candidate. Don't know lots about George Cullen at London Scottish other than he has played for Ireland at U18 level. I've aways thought that Sean O'Hagan had much more to come and suffered from doing a lot very young. He was very exciting as a teenager which meant that the expectations were very high. Would be an interesting option alright.

That's the jackal attitude we missed last season! (except Buckley of course)


Do you have the stats for turnovers last year? It felt like we had less than half compared to our title winning season;

He tweeted something about enjoying the weather in Fiji the other day and Mul replied that he was in for a flogging when he got back. Guessing he was in the squad for the NH games only and on a break now.

Speaking of Dawai, no sign of him in the squad that beat Samoa today. Was he involved in the wider squad for those games? I know he started for them in the June tests but haven't seen him crop up in the PNC.

"Fardy will captain the side from flanker in a back-row that also includes Jarrad Butler, who had a stint at Centre in the Reds fixture, "

Here is our back-up 12, no need for Dawai there !

I've had 2 drinks so I'm not that bad luckily :P

Callum Sheedy is the guy I was thinking of. 21 year old 10 who got loaned out to Jersey last year (where he did a good job afaik). Not sure on the contract situation but I'd say he's be worth a punt.

What's the name of that young Welsh fella who's IQ and seems to think of himself as very much Irish?

IF Boshoff is gone he needs to be replaced by a project who is very good or at least a very capable niq. We don't need poor players just because they are IQ. This is a new era for Connacht and I'm sure KK has a plan either way.

Do you mean Cathal Marsh? He's nowhere near the standard required. I would seriously fear for us if we lose Marnitz and replace him with someone from a poor Championship team.

On a side note I like the new training gear
