LEINSTER V ULSTER Saturday 29Th August 2020 OFFICIAL LEINSTER SUPPORTERS CLUB OFFICIAL LEINSTER SUPPORTERS CLUB GUIDE TO LEINSTER v ULSTER Saturday 29th August 2020 OFFICIAL LEINSTER SUPPORTERS CLUB LEINSTER v ULSTER WHAT A RETURN! And just like that and before we knew it, Round 14 has come and gone in the near blink of the eye. After waiting so long for the return of the game we love so well, you’d be forgiven for forgetting just how quick 80mins can go in a game and when you throw in the shear ferocity with which all games were attacked by GETTING TO DUBLIN AIRPORT the respective players, it really was a case of “Wow – did I just miss something?!” A thrilling 27-25 victory over Munster ensured we extended our record in this season’s competition to 14/14 in a game that went down to the wire. At one stage in the game Munster were 24-13 down but fought back to come within a single score at the end and had the ball with a minute to go and pressing hard. The end result though was no penalties were conceded and it was Devin Toner who (ironically in a move similar to Peter O’Mahony against the All Blacks) stooped low and picked off a flat pass to snatch the ball away from another Munster attack. Who knew someone that tall to get down to that level but what a fantastic piece of play and it really summed up Leinster’s tenacity and mind-set from the opening whistle. The return of Round 14 was a success in the eyes of Leinster and the focus now shifts to this weekend and Ulster in the final round of the ‘regular’ (yeah weird saying that) season before the top two in each conference contest the Semi-Final and then onwards to the Grand Final. In the second of the weekend fixtures to be held in Irish Rugby HQ on Sunday, it was 2015/16 league champions Connacht who defeated 2005/06 champions Ulster, on a score-line of 26-20 in what was another rip roaring start to finish, end-to-end encounter. Tries from John Porch, Kieran Marmion, Bundee Aki (on his 100th appearance) as well as ex-Leinster tight- head Jack Aungier ensured that Connacht were ultimately too strong on what was their 1st appearance to Irish Rugby HQ since 1989. #Lineout4Leinster OFFICIAL LEINSTER SUPPORTERS CLUB LEINSTER v ULSTER AS IT STANDS …. So with those results, Conference A is already decided and it’s just a case of either finishing what you started and going for the grand slam of results, or looking to end the season on a high if the result last weekend wasn’t what you desired. Leinster & Ulster are Semi-Final bound after Glasgow lost to Edinburgh last Saturday to end their slim SF prospects. Leinster as we know though will be looking to continue their winning ways and finish the round fixtures with a 100% record, while Ulster will be looking to try avoid a potential rugby return whitewash of two defeats before moving onto the semi- finals. The sides last met back in the RDS on Friday 20th December where after 14 tries (8 vs 6) and 96pts in total, Leinster took the victory 54-42. (The total of 14 tries equals the PRO14 record for tries scored in a single match (Edinburgh v Caerphilly September 2002 (66-32)), 96pts is the Championships second biggest ever total while Ulster’s score of 42 is a PRO14 record for a losing team) #Lineout4Leinster OFFICIAL LEINSTER SUPPORTERS CLUB LEINSTER v ULSTER AS IT STANDS CONTD …. Over in Conference B it’s Edinburgh who currently lead Munster by 5 points as they head into their Friday night fixture in a rematch against Glasgow. Second placed Munster currently have a four-point lead over Scarlets in third but either of these sides could still clinch that second spot and put themselves into the semi-final against Leinster. Should Munster defeat Connacht with a bonus point, and Edinburgh slip up against Glasgow, then even with the two sides finishing level on points (assuming Edinburgh get nothing), it would be the Scots to claim first place as they currently have 11 wins to Munster’s 9. If Scarlets win away to the Dragons on Saturday with a bonus point, then this would put them 1 point ahead of Munster who would then need at least two points in their fixture against Connacht to ensure 2nd place is theirs. Should the two teams (Munster & Scarlets) finish level on points, then with both teams cur- rently sitting on 9 victories each, a win for the Scarlets (& defeat for Munster) would put the Welsh ahead in terms of overall victories so they would progress. As with everything on the final day, it’s simply a case of win your game at all costs and don’t look to the other teams for assistance or favours. #Lineout4Leinster OFFICIAL LEINSTER SUPPORTERS CLUB LEINSTER v ULSTER OLSC ONLINE SHOP The Official Leinster Supporters Club (OLSC) are delighted to announce that we have now launched our online shop.

Since the beginning of the Interprovincial Championship in 1946, these two sides have faced off 99 times with Leinster securing 59 victories to Ulster’s 34 and 6 draws. The game back in December in the RDS was, as we mentioned the second highest scoring game ever in this competition, but both sides are no strangers to securing big league wins over each other; LEINSTER ULSTER DIFf DATE 40 7 33 05/01/2019 38 7 31 2017/18 39 9 30 1980/81 6 30 24 2015/16 6 28 22 2003/04 14 34 10 1998/99 The sides have also met in the Heineken Cup and the most memorable occasion was the 2011/12 Final in Twickenham London. On that day, Saturday 19th May 2012, in front of a crowd of a mere 81,774, we secured our second European star on a score-line of 42-14. #Lineout4Leinster OFFICIAL LEINSTER SUPPORTERS CLUB LEINSTER v ULSTER GAME STATS LEINSTER (AVE.

  • The Earl of Thomond's 1615 Survey of Ibrickan, Co
    McInerney Thomond 15/1/14 10:52 AM Page 173 North Munster Antiquarian Journal vol. 53, 2013 173 The Earl of Thomond’s 1615 Survey of Ibrickan, Co. Clare LUKE McINERNEY A transcription and discussion of an early seventeenth century survey of a Co. Clare barony. The chief value of the document is that it represents the earliest rent-roll detailing the Earl of Thomond’s estate in Co. Clare and merits study not least because it is one of the most comprehensive surveys of its type for early seventeenth century Co. Clare. Furthermore, it may be used to ascertain the landholding matrix of Ibrickan and to identify the chief tenants. Presented here is a survey undertaken of the barony of Ibrickan in Co. Clare in 1615.1 The survey covered the entire 63 quarters of the barony. It is lodged at Petworth House archive among the collection of Thomond Papers there.2 At present, our understanding of the changes in landholding for Ibrickan is hindered by the fact that the returns in the 1641 Books of Survey and Distribution3 show that by that time proprietorship of the barony was exclusively in the hands of the Earl of Thomond and few under-tenants are recorded. Having a full list of the chief tenants which dates from the second decade of the seven- teenth century augments our understanding of the changes wrought to landholding, inheritance and social relations in Gaelic regions at a critical juncture in Irish history following the battle of Kinsale. This 1615 survey of part of the extensive estate of the Earl of Thomond serves to focus our gaze at a lower echelon of Gaelic society.

  • Rabodirect PRO12 : PREVIEW 2012/13
    RaboDirect PRO12 : PREVIEW 2012/13 Round 18: 22ND & 23RD March 2013 ROUND 18 PREVIEWS With just five rounds left to decide which teams will contest the Play-Offs, there is a new leader of the RaboDirect PRO12 with Glasgow Warriors taking over the mantle from Ulster, whilst for the fourth round in succession, Ospreys swapped places with Scarlets in the Play-Off Zone. Three of those teams are in action on Friday night; Ulster traveling to Edinburgh, Ospreys hosting Welsh rivals Newport Gwent Dragons, and Scarlets in Italy to face Zebre. Edinburgh can do their Scottish neighbours, Warriors, a favour if they can defeat Ulster however their record against the Ulstermen is not great. Meanwhile Ospreys and Scarlets must both be looking to come away with maximum points from opponents who are sitting at the wrong end of the table in their bids to reach the Play-Offs. The leaders, Glasgow Warriors, are not in action until Saturday, and are the only one of the potential Play-Off teams to face another side from the top half of the table when the visit Leinster at the RDS. Munster will also be looking for maximum points in the All-Irish clash against Connacht if they are to make a final push for the knockout stages. With just two points separating the top three teams in the table, whilst it is even closer for the final Play Off spot, there is definitely all to play for still as the RaboDirect PRO12 enters its closing stages. ROUND 18 FIXTURES Friday 22 March EDINBURGH RUGBY v ULSTER At Murrayfield, 7.30pm.

  • Croaghaun Windfarm
    Mountaineering Ireland’s response to Carlow County Council re planning application 2113 - Croaghaun windfarm 25th February 2021 1 Contents 1. Introduction and context 3 2. Impact on Walking in the Blackstairs Mountains 3 3. Landscape and Visual Impact 7 4. Planning Context 9 5. Conclusions 11 6. About Mountaineering Ireland 11 References 12 2 1. Introduction and Context As the representative body for hillwalkers and climbers on the island of Ireland, Mountaineering Ireland has a particular concern for ensuring the sustainable use of Ireland’s upland areas. Mountaineering Ireland therefore represents a community of interest in this application, drawn from Co. Carlow, the south east, and across the island of Ireland. The Blackstairs Mountains are a hugely significant element landscape of the south-east, this chain of rounded granite mountains rises between the beautiful Barrow valley and the lowlands of Wexford, marking the boundary between counties Carlow and Wexford and forming a landscape cherished for its scenic qualities. The proposal is for a development comprising seven wind turbines with an overall height of up to 178m, mainly within Coillte forestry on Kilbrannish Hill, immediately north of the Corrabut Gap. The site is 3km north east of the well-known Nine Stones viewing point and less than 5km from the summit of Mount Leinster, the highest point in both Co. Carlow and Co. Wexford. The applicant is Coillte CGA. Commercial windfarms on this scale should be described as wind factories. Mountaineering Ireland is strongly of the view that the proposed development would be unacceptably damaging to the visual amenity and landscape character of this area.
