@Munsterrugby Embarrassing end, to a terrible season, seems fitting. Our province being destroyed before our eyes. Paying for a review using money we dont have when its obvious what is needed sums up how rudderless 2026 Munster has become. Next season looks bleak if there is no clear out.

@Munsterrugby Nice to dig out a big W under massive pressure. Where was that fight all season? EOC and Gleeson had fine games, let the future (kids) play!

[Synchronised @Istabraq777]

@Munsterrugby At least consistent at throwing out pathetic performances this season. How our youth cant get a game ahead of this rabble goodness only knows. There are at least 8 players who played tonight who would not get a pro contract elsewhere. Shambolic

@CorkGourmetGuy @Helenaclose Enjoying the debate tlyour provoking but your miles off on a number of points there.
Lots to do to reset Munster on the right path but your anti Limerick agenda wont help.There is no sutiable stadium in Cork and no funding to build one. We need all of Munster to stick together

@pointMF @Leeemcnamara @robggill Vs the Stade or Bayonne B teams who's attendances your comping to in prior yrs. Move all such games to Cork if they can sell them out! But what about the rest of the season?( Ive zero interest in this Cork/Limerick rubbish myself. It distracts from our real issues).

[Synchronised @Istabraq777]

@Leeemcnamara @robggill Indeed. I was part of a group of 20+ who flew in for it. We wont be back. Was dreadful for rugby like Croker was. 30 minute walk in the rain to get there with no transport options isnt a weekly solution long term. If population fixed things D4 would fill Landsdowne Road weekly!

@PaulOBrienKil @dmorr80 @CorkGourmetGuy Moving more games to each of the counties certainly seems a good option. The profile of the league is a tough sell season afrer season(look at D4 attendances). Selling season tickets becomes more difficult then but maybe they could move one or two a year (outside Cork/Limerick).

@CorkGourmetGuy @robggill the crowds is far from proven. A one off not sold out event is proof of that

[Synchronised @Istabraq777]

@CorkGourmetGuy @robggill This just isnt true. Our decline came well after. What is true is some opportunites those successes afforded us were squandered/ mismanaged.

[Synchronised @Istabraq777]

@robggill @CorkGourmetGuy Munsters early success was clearly build on the AIL clubs /club game of the time. We are never going back there but the clubs should play a part of our tapestry. Its a disaster the clubs lose schools players still in 2026. This cup tied rubbish needs binned. Lets the kids play

[Synchronised @Istabraq777]

@CorkGourmetGuy @robggill the drop in attendance isnt Limerick people. Its accross the board. Losing team loses the passive interest. The last games of the season no competing with peak hurling Munster Champ also a newer disaster for us

[Synchronised @Istabraq777]

@robggill @CorkGourmetGuy Great point.Munster (the pro side) have always pretty much been ran out of Cork by natives since we went pro,including all staff being based down there. It's intersting to me that most people dont know this(ignore the bluffer Flanagan, Im talking Garrett Fitz. /Philip Quinns etc.

[Synchronised @Istabraq777]

@CorkGourmetGuy There is no proof that the biggest population is our biggest rugby fan base. Thats a disparaging assumption to the rest of the fan base/counties. Our core fan base probably isnt much more than 12k. Fans in stadiums are lip service now. Look at kickoff dates/times etc.

[Synchronised @Istabraq777]

@allTxs @CorkGourmetGuy He's not the only one. There are many financial backers of all levels staying away at the moment for similar reasons. The commercial dinners speak volumes with those not there these days.

[Synchronised @Istabraq777]

@CorkGourmetGuy If the team is successful on the pitch support off it it grows. We've shown many times we will follow them anywhere.The issue is, apart from one URC, weve been in transition for 15+ years.Playing losing rugby doesnt attract new fans and eventually wears thin on your current 1's

[Synchronised @Istabraq777]

@CorkGourmetGuy Your making some great points but dont get dragged into its a Cork vs Limerick thing etc etc. One off games (that didnt sell out) in a ground not good for rugby or fan friendly isnt our answer, nor is splitting our fan base around parochial lines.

[Synchronised @Istabraq777]

@CorkGourmetGuy There is a lot more to come out about his failures. Keep digging!
He wanted to host the redundo call from SA but was told get home. What cabin did he and other blazers fly both ways while the players were in cattle class?

@CorkGourmetGuy It populated by mé féiners who wont do anything to upset their apple cart. The stories around disbanding their most successful cohort (London), their Choir and their photographers tell all you need to know about those now involved.

[Synchronised @Istabraq777]

@CorkGourmetGuy There is only one official- the MRSC. And that was cleared out professionally a few years ago(a story in itself) and replaced by an inferior setup (both professionally and voluntary) to what was before and had been a vibrant part of Munster for many years.
