Front Five - 30.06.17

Start your day with five eye-catching egg-chasing quotes & links from around the ruggersphere.

If a poacher is what the Lions "desperately needed"
and Warburton wasn't fit to start first test,
why not go for Tipuric?

Sarah Mockford - Rugby World



It could be said that journalism was in Fred’s blood and indeed as a teenage schoolboy he made his first contribution to the then Radio Éireann.


Edmund Van Esbeck - Irish Times



"We’ve only been here 10 days. It’s been so quick. I guess in time it will sink in what it really means to play for the Lions


Irish Independent



"We have a really competitive pool with Ireland, France and Japan and we know that there's no such thing as an easy game at a World Cup."


Alison Donnelly - Scrumqueens



'I would rather grab them than nothing!'


Murray Kinsella - The42.ie
