By Ciaran Murphy Verified| Irish Times Verified There can only have been so many times over the course of the last four months that Roscommon and Monaghan heard the views of the commentariat before they started to get a little annoyed. “There’s never been a more even, top-quality Division 1.” “Usually in a season, there would be 1 or 2 games where you’d say, right, that’s where you’ll pick up your points − that’s not the case this year.” Some variant of that sort of view was repeatedly aired throughout February and March.
By Ciaran Murphy Verified| Irish Times Verified I watched last Saturday’s Leinster v Harlequins European Champions Cup knockout game in slack-jawed amazement. My astonishment was not at the quality of Leinster’s play, or indeed at the truly atrocious nature of Quins’ defence, but at the size of the crowd they had attracted into Croke Park for a game against the seventh-best team in the woe-begotten English Premiership. That result was only going one way, and yet more than 55,000 people had bought a ticket.
