It's estimated that cats kill up to 16 million birds in Ireland each year. In a land where 63% of our birds are either red or amber-listed, this is a major threat. Please keep cats indoors, especially during the breeding season.

[Jim Demps @jim_demps]

Think the depth in Irish rugby is at its lowest point in a decade. LH is a disaster, lock is weak outside of TB & JMc, 10 outside of Crowley is only paper potential & 15 is short of proven quality.
Farrell could do with being questioned a bit harder before he swans off for a year

"Almost 20% of farmers would look at rewetting their farms."

It's clear that if farmers had the option of being decently paid to rewild, many would avail. Great for them, nature, the climate, our entire society.

Why is this STILL not on offer???

Part of #BereIsland Projects Group work on the Bere Island Conservation Plan which is funded by @HeritageHubIRE is to protect the island's natural landscape and biodiversity, including biodiversity at island heritage sites.

[Tom Spencer @TPSpencer88]

Coillte doesn't just destroy biodiversity when it plants non-native dead zones

It doesn't just destroy biodiversity when it fells trees

It also destroys biodiversity by allowing invasive species to spread, crowding out plants that are vital for our wildlife

If anyone needs a few hints for July about winning in South Africa, there’s a whole hape of lads just done in twice in two weeks.

Live scenes from Nucifora's office, which one can only assume is in Leinster HQ at this stage. #irfu

[Caolán Scully @Caolan_Scully]

Leinster signing one of the best players in the world while the provinces lay off multiple senior players is very on-brand

- Ulster gone to the wall
- Connacht searching the couch for spare change
- Munster losing multiple internationals

- Leinster sign 2 RWC Final players

[Overthehillprop @Overthehillprop]

Fully deserved for Dan Sheehan as one of best hookers in the world right now.
Questions to be asked about central contracts in general and how the IRFU are using them across the provinces.
9 Leinster, 1 Munster, 1 Ulster, 1 Connacht. Not even one for the Ireland captain.

[Jim Demps @jim_demps]

Genuinely delighted for Sheehan, it’s well earned

But

By the summer we will see 10 central contracts in Leinster while the other 3 clubs have 3 between them. That’s 3 times more with one to spare than the 3 poor cousins combined

Nucifora is leaving behind a broken system

[Jim Demps @jim_demps]

When he’s only signing a years extension,maybe it’d have been better just to keep him on a central contract rather than dragging the Irish Captains contract through until April

Glad he’s staying even if Munster have to provide the extra bucks to the Union to keep their Captain

[Tom Savage @threeredkings]

A lot of this squad are sick as dogs but they are fronting up big time

[Mrs Adeline Rarely @Mrs_Adeline1]

@jim_demps Absolutely. It’s a pity mainstream Irish rugby media aren’t highlighting these issues. I haven’t been impressed with Nucifora’s tenure at all. As for what has happened to the women’s game under his watch 😡

[Jared Wright @jaredwright17]

🗣️ Rassie Erasmus on the 7-1 split and that Jean Kleyn made it possible:

“If you want your best 23 players on the field and 15 of them are forwards, then put them on, find a way.

“You know, if it’s not against the laws of the game and if you’ve got the quality forwards we have where the one that comes off [the bench], you actually can’t tell the difference between him and the guy who started [the match].

“You could never do it if you don’t have the personnel to do it.”

“I always found it to be that the last 20 minutes, it’s the slower forwards that get tired and get exploited by the crafty wingers; it’s the tightheads and locks and those guys.

“But a slow, tired back can still tackle somebody because he’s fit and fast and agile, but the slow, tired forward gets beaten much easier. So first of all, I always wanted to do it. Then when we eventually had the squad with Jean Kleyn coming in we were able to do it.”

Israel has evacuated El Shifa Hospital in Gaza this morning, leaving 400 bodies, some crushed by tanks, others buried alive in body bags, with burnt buildings and children under 13 executed.

This isn’t war. This is genocide.

Repeat it. Spread it. Let the world know.

Would prefer to see actual Marine Protected Areas tbh

[Jim Demps @jim_demps]

Ulster can’t afford to have an outhalf for next season. Uls, Mun and Con all to reduce player spend for next yr by 10%. Leinster increasing their lead as the highest player spend team in the world

People forget that it’s the IRFU that pay every IQ players wage in the country

[Mrs Adeline Rarely @Mrs_Adeline1]

@jim_demps I’m assuming there’s no travel allowance for Farrell outside the M50 at this stage
