Episode 2472: Leinster’s Chances, Ulster’s Pickleball, Munster’s Pickle, Sky Go, Emery Returns
The Ulster rugby squad flew to Durban, SA to play the Sharks, got wiped out by a mix of E Coli and Norovirus, had to call the game off, and flew home. So why are we talking about pickleball?
A mix of Munster’s scramble defence and Leinster’s wastefulness meant Saturday’s game in The Aviva was a lot closer than many predicted, leading to a lot of praise for Munster. In spite of a doughty display, Shane Horgan and Andrew Trimble still think Munster are in a lot of trouble this season.
