Fifita seems out best bet. I wonder how Kindregan did in the Eagles game?

Do we even have a back up 8 atm? I know this was discussed recently but now its even more important, fafita maybe? could brown or kearney do a job there?

Was really hoping to get McKeon back soon so that tough news and Muldoon out until December doesn't help any.

Not for a broken foot ! bones to heal as well recovery time and fitness to be regained. I would have thought that 6 months was about right.

Unfortunately this is true

Does anyone know the details behind this, it was reported as a broken foot of some sort I think but six months seems an awful long time even with a surgery.

Playing with UCD this weekend

I'd say it's a week too soon for him

At the very least...

Given how long he's been out I would think they would want to see him complete three or four games before considering him for active duty....

RTE website are reporting that Henshaw got a concussion from the Zebre game. Anyone have any news on how bad it is?
