I think its something to do with gambling ,according to the journalist he owes 300k.But its all a load of bull.

[sean]

Heard another story involving an affair where the contributing party to said affair was paid off by a certain Limerick man to keep it quiet til after the world cup. Don't believe a word of it though.

Had Ireland being winning handsomely so far not a mention would have been made of certain allegations, but certain members of the public and media have starting spouting shite due to poor performances, much in the same way the English would do to the international football team over there

[megager]

I heard a rumour he wasnt playing well at the moment.....but it will be proved wrong tonight.

[reder]

Cheating on his misses again according to a guy I know who is not a bs'er. Had to laugh at BOD saying that it was an attempt to put him off form for the game tonight.

I hope they get hammered tonight. Sick to death of all of this rugby nonsense on the radio and telly.

:). jes how could someone make all that up. laughable

[yodabenitez]

Pathetic

[gav003]

It really is laughable and unfortunately there was no spark in the Irish team tonight. The French knew that all the had to do was compete for an hour and their bench was strong- we had no impact at all from the bench (Except Neil Best) & they we all fired on too late anyway. Def looks like O'Sullivan is not the man for the job- only an eternal optimist would think we can stick 4 tries past Argentina and beat them by more than 8 points:(

[yodabenitez]

Ah there was a spark alright, just no fire, desperately disappointed, thought we'd run them much closer than that.

Too many basic errors at poor times, particularly when attacking in the first half.

Couple of bad hops of the ball as well when we really needed to get everything going in our favour.

Redden, Flannery & maybe Hayes I thought performed at or near the level required but sadly nobody else. Especially disappointed with O'Connell, as I imagine he is himself. O'Callaghan seemed, at best lethargic, even if that is easy to say from the high stool. David Wallace didn't carry until nearly the 80th minute and both Easterby & Horan we're very high in the error count. Denis Leamy tried but there was no 'bollock' about him like there usually is.

I'd do the backs as well but given what's gone before it would be daft to have too much too say other than ROG wasn't himself and Trimble had a 10 minute nightmare.

I won't be saying it can't be done until the clock turns red next Sunday.
