A complete joke in my opinion. The John Hayes ban has been reduced form 6 weeks to 5 weeks by the Irish appeal committee.
Now the good news is that the time period covered, November 7th – 14th, has no games for Munster or Ireland that he is missing. the bad news is that it should already be more, not reduced.
Good Behaviour
Now I understand that John Hayes has had a wonderful disciplinary record until now… and that’s great. But when you intentionally stamp on someones face I think …

The British Lions have called up Irish International rugby star John Hayes following the unfortunate injury to Scottish tighthead Euan Murray in teh game against the Southern Kings.



Is it the right call?


Whilst Hayes is certainly teh better prop I suspect that this is actually the wrong call, and would have gone elsewhere instead. Read the article to find out who I would have called up to the British Lions rugby squad, and why.
