Summer rugby that's "write-up" your street

OK, maybe Leinster's season has come to an end but do you honestly think that's going to stop us harpin' on rugby between now and the World Cup?

Blogging isn't generally something you do by a fixed schedule but our Monday match writeups are the bedrock of this site and we're not going to let a little thing like the boys in blue being on holidays stop us from posting one at the start of each week!

There's more than enough action to help us keep our hand in, and much of it is very much of interest to Leinster & Ireland fans like the Wolfpuppies at the Junior World Championships and Emerging Ireland at the Tblisi Cup.

Plus there's the Pro12 final which will hopefully include at least one Irish province, the marathon Top14 campaign has its finale in June, followed by Super Rugby and the shortened Rugby Championship.

Before you know it we'll be in August and it will be time for Ireland's warm-up matches ahead of the World Cup, and we'll also be following the performances of our pool mates France, Italy, Canada and Romania as they go through their own preparations.

On top of this we'll be continuing most of our regular features like our daily "Front 5" sample for the rugby meeja, regular posts from our guest contributors, competitions and a new type of mini-writeup called an "Eight-Oh-Review" which we'll be launching soon (if you notice any big matches missing from the list below don't worry we'll be covering them as well).

So if you think we'll be taking it easy here at HoR Manor over the coming months you'd be very much mistaken - we hope you continue to help us keep the rugby chat going 24/7! JLP
