Wonderful news re Munster. I really feared he was gone.

So let’s get NAS signed, Paps, Christian and Reimis fit and back in the lineup , get some of the new forwards bending the line , and make a real impact in 2023 and beyond !

Surprising and great news. Club is better with him here than elsewhere but damn this makes recruitment and development all the more important now.

fantastic news. we can rebuild a team around him, a damn sight tougher if he was to move on.

and i'd have Pene in a heartbeat, he was great with us.
Haha don’t be a grammarphobe in a euphoric moment
Hardly! One means he is pissing off, the other means he has re-committed. You simply cannot get more of a juxtaposition if you tried.
Yes, like I wished Jesse had resigned 2 to 3 years ago.

Interesting if we sign Pene that's 30 players which is unusual for this time of year.

Are some of the 30 you're counting on Development deals and thus not in our 30?
