He was reasonably close to correct with his first "reason" and after that the rest of the article was completely unnecessary, like his head.

Francis is an idiot. He doesnt even know what day we played Leinster.

Small mickey syndrome from Francis again. He was humiliated and bullied during a club game game in Ballina towards the end of the '80's when his galactico Dublin club lost to the locals and Francis was outmuscled and just didn't want to know. He's never forgotten that, and that colours his writing.

As the saying goes "He's a bollix. And if they were scarce, he'd make two of them"

Ok, lets just get this out of the way quickly, Francis is being a complete Neil Francis again. Let's just acknowledge that this is the case and quietly move on.

There may actually be some merit in some of the things he has said, Connacht are certainly no world beaters and yes Henshaw still has stuff to work on, but it's wrapped up in Francis' patented bull in a very small china shop style of writing, where he yet again confuses being a bell end with being forthright.

Lam rightly seems tad pissed about no TMO being at the game - surely TMO should be standard in all games in the league?

I'll put some money on him repeating his intercept try in last season's opener then ;-)

Nice few minutes on Connacht this evening on Off the Ball. As if you weren't excited enough for the start of the season now the revelation Nathan White's hands are coming on leaps and bounds after a week of Mills Skills sessions!!!
