Bonkers game to watch.
SA the stronger team and we made mistakes, but great character shown under pressure. Not sure about some of the calls, or the sheer amount of calls….
Disappointing to see Rassie reaction at full time too.

The home of the O'Donovan family is being used as a polling station in Coolmoyne, Co Tipperary. Around 250 people are eligible to vote at the house and after they cast their ballot, they will be treated to a cup of tea, a slice of apple or rhubarb tart, or a scone | More: rte.ie/b/1540324

Over his two presidential terms, Michael D. Higgins has become something of a folk hero – with his fluffy dogs, fluent Irish and poetry-writing all contributing to his distinctive charm.

the booker prize judges make a lot of fuss about having to read 153 books. but assuming an average weight of 750g per book, that comes in at 115kg of literature - or just under the weight of a single adult male ostrich

Not for nothing but #TraitorsIRL was the first hashtag I saw gain any sort of traction in Ireland since moving to this site.
Felt a bit like the other place in the good old days for a while.

There are lots of patches of Ireland that are nominally County/Province A but their vibes are profoundly County/Province B.
Arklow is far more Wexfordy than Wicklowish.
Louth feels more Ulster than Leinster.
And there are certain parts of Westmeath that are to the east of certain parts of Meath.

Where I live is definitely in Kilkenny but spiritually it’s part of Laois

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.
