Excited to see how our set piece goes against Munster. Tight five have really fronted up at scrum time.

The big man back at 12 will give the backs a bit of a lift. Benson has been good, but playing out of position.

A win and it's a good start to the season, a defeat and I'm thinking, what the fud.

Strange or just terrible signings?
Weird player combinations?
Funny interviews?
Something different altogether?

I’d probably call the era from around 2012-2019 or so our main banter period.
For me it’s probably signing Gerhard van den Heever or having Denis Hurley as our first choice 12.

Will Chambers is another noteworthy flop
