More info
london-irish top of the league do we deserve to be there . you bet, will we stay there, who knows but why not. the reason that irish are there is quite simple it is called working together. we have been without a lot of our regular starting xv over the last few weeks and the lads that have come in to the team have done a great job. great credit must also go to the head coach toby booth.

Geraghty had better be back in the England reckoning for the six nations.

London Irish look a quality side this year.
Agree with KeepRugbyReal, but isnt that what the top sides do?
I think thats the biggest change in L Irish, there winning games without being at their best.
Geraghty must be looking at a place in Eng, seems that Fluty/Cipriani/Flood havent had massive impacts.

They are there due to grinding out results. No doubt other teams bemoan the players lost for Internationals and feel sorry for themselves. Look at Wasps as a prime example!!

LI have lost a lot of players also, but shown they have good depth and are happy to give their younger guys a run out in other games eg Anglo-Welsh cup.

Also got to give Hewat some credit. Very handy to have a kicker as useful as him.

Will they be there at the end of the season? No reason why not, but certainly top 4 must be a realistic target, as well as having a good shot at the Challenge Cup.

I was at the Memorial Stadium yesterday...Irish are a very good team, but on Sunday they can count themselves fortunate to have won, they were outplayed throughout the 2nd half and only survived thanks to a gift interception try.
