[QUOTE="snoopy snoopy dog dog, post: 492627, member: 13611"] As big ginger 8 has said, none of those guys are from Connacht. While I disagree that the IRFU should subsidise Connacht (the westies have to get their own house in order first), I do agree with your point that Connacht shouldn't be viewed as the ******* child and should be allowed compete on an equal footing. At present the IRFU treat Connacht differently, as seen by their new overseas player policy which excluded the Galway based team. We've gone from a situation where it was just Munster and Leinster duking it out, to one where Ulster got their act together and are now sitting at the same table as them. Connacht may never reach the heights of the other three provinces but if they can produce two or three viable prospects for the national team, that would be an achievement in itself. [/QUOTE]
