Of all the results in world rugby recently, perhaps the most exciting is that Edinburgh clinched second place in the Magners League! It’s the highest position ever by a Scottish team, and we are absolutely thrilled. Andy Robinson has clearly helped the guys unleash all the potential we always believed they had. Fantastic result.
The competition was tough – the team that won the league was last year’s Heineken Cup winners Munster, while the team in third, Leinster, are this years Cup winners. Speaking of the Heineken Cup, not only was it great for Ireland to see another victory this year (having won the Grand Slam in the Six Nations), but the final was played out in Murrayfield. Knowing that brings back some thoroughly enjoyable memories of being at the Final between Toulouse and Stade Francais three years ago.
Speaking of going to international rugby games with Dad and Sue, next weekend the four of us are off to see the Barbarians take on the Wallabies. The Baabaas squad is packed, as ever, with top level international names – Martin Corry, Serge Betsen, Jerry Collins, Josh Lewsey, Geordan Murphy and Leinster’s own Rocky Elsom to name just a few. We can’t tell you how much we’re looking forward to it.
