Fantastic team! And a great memory. I forget half of those lads myself, and I'm Irish.

Political savvy, warrior-like tendencies, literary genius, the ability to drink any capital dry and a couple of decent ball-players...who could beat us?

Ah come on Captain...you always need a little smart ass sniper in there as 9. Higgins is your man. Bits a leg and never lets go.

Can't beat the Hound of Ulster, I reckon - Higgins can warm the pine with Moss Keane, Willie John, Gay Byrne and Christy Moore, among others. It will stop all the Ulster supporters on the board from telling me that I've overlooked their players, as well.

Why are we all accepting the premise that the dinosaurs have fallen?

Stringer was around before the dinosaurs.

When he retires they're going to preserve him in amber.

James Joyce was a hell of a player, but his teammates sometimes found him hard to read.

True. Joyce was like a Fitzgerald kind of player.  He knew what he meant but others hadn't a clue.

He might be. But first they're trying to find him. He's usually to be found buried into the turf somewhere after a game. It's where he's most comfortable.

Kearney's writing is shoite, he has no political acumen of which I've ever heard, his abilities with cudgel, sling, spear or sword are highly questionable and as a modern player, he'd undoubtedly spend too much time taking cold baths and imbibing isotonic drinks. What sort of player is that?

Seems to have forgotten how to tackle as well.

O'Kay - an honest player but not a great one. Not sure he should even have been on the bench - thankful he seldom made it off it for the 15 years he was a professional

I think Panty Bliss should be coach.

What about Slàine (2000ad) ? He would certainly lead from the front and would put the fear in all opponent's.
Not sure his axe would be allowed though

Panty would be a hyper-modern choice for coach, Guns. I can't see Cuchulainn or Brendan Behan, to name but two, treating the coach with appropriate respect, though.

I had thought about George Hook - also has or had a penchant for women's undergarments, knows as much about the game as Panty and might unify the side in horror against his 'old Blueshirt' tendencies.

Well if the two Marys are allowed in the team I think it is only fair.

Michael O'Leary has to be coach - abrasive, challenging, insulting, goading, pompous, peevish and prickly.... all the usual traits of the best coaches in the world.

Like your thinking, Secret. Can we have Willie Mullins as his assistant? A great trainer and team harmony would be just dandy.
