Appropriately, it looks like the Rangers away strip.
They should have billed this game Ireland vs. Britain.

What is this about? And who do they think will actually buy those jerseys?
Could you wear one to an Ireland game?

Is it a one-off challenge game, or going to be an annual thing or what?

so many questions..

huh? .... i don`t get this ... do munster people think they`re more irish then leinster people? ... I`ve heard it all now ... i`ve only heard this once before from a munster fan as well ... the irony of a rugby fan suggesting they`re more irish then some other group of irish people is mildly amusing i suppose.

Do you need it spelt out to you?
The Pale, Southside Dublin, West Brits.

Of course Munster is more Irish than Leinster.

Munster men killed the man who got this country its freedom from Britain.

The irony of following rugby and calling someone a west brit is obviously lost on you.

Tell you what, go to tallaght and tell them they`re west brits, I`d pay to see that.

someone from Mayo could wear the red and green one if their regular county jersey was in the wash

I assume that mean this Monnacht or Cunster team are going to crumble under the pressure and lose, they woiuld have been far better off if they just asked Mayo for a loan of the jerseys

This is another example of the blatant commercialism and rip off mentality of professional sports.

14.30 tomorrow Blanco. I don`t think it`s on tv but sure Kerry v Down will be a far better/competitive match. It`s only the Academy players playing, not even the players in the development squads judging by the Leinster contingent.

Surely you have got it the wrong way round....most of the fighting against the brits was in Leinster  (Wexford 1798, Dulin 1916 )  and Ulster  (1922 onwards ) .....

Meh, if it wasn`t for us founding the Land League in Mayo, ye`d all still be waving little Union Jacks.
