Yep Stringer was the man today
As I said on another thread he kept his head and called on all his experience and know how when his province needed it,
Foley and O'Connell could not give any more and had to go off and the little man took the responsibility on to his shoulders and guided the team home.
Deffo Man of the match went to the right guy today unlike the England V Ireland 6 nations game!

yeh, it really was a top drawer performance. halstead had a cracker as well.was terrified though when stringer went down with the hamstring injury - o'leary in my opinion is only the weak link in the munster 22.

Can I just apologise, for years I have been unconvinced by Stringer but wow, what a performance, that try, that face when he scored it!

Well done Munster! Thought you were gonners when the TJ let that try in - Chris White should have used the video ref to play back - then it would have been a line-out to Munster! Anyway - you guys played your hearts out and deserved the win!

Was there Cardiff in 2002, maybe just as well missed this one or would have jinxed 'em again. They "held their head when all around them........" just shows you it's not just brute power, the smallest man on the pitch was the biggest on the day. Don't forget Cork, it's not just Limerick who are a stronghold of Munster rugby.......Stringer, O'Gara, Kidney, O'Callaghan, Horgan,Horan..... Munster abu

As a Welshman, I raise a glass to Peter Stringer, all 11st 8ibs of him. Let his character, determination, strength and skill stand as two fingers up to those gigantist cretins everywhere who believe that modern rugby is a game only for the musclebound.
Also let Shane Williams, James Simpson-Daniel, Chris Paterson, Christophe Dominici et al continue to prove the same.
Yechyd da!!!!!!

Eat that Stephen Jones,Peter O'Reilly and any other of those ignorant Stringer critics.The man is without doubt one of the most tactically astute srummies in the world; or maybe even the best. I've never seen him being outplayed at the base or in the open field and the man never makes the wrong move.In short, the man is a hero and a credit to Irish rugby.

Following on from this message I believe Peter 0' Reilly and most especially Stephen Jones should state in their columns tomorrow the undoubted GREATNESS of one of Irelands most consistently underrated players. Further to this I encourage all likeminded individuals to harrang, in a legal manner, Messers Jones and O'Reilly should their comments in the Sunday Indo and Sunday Times not be suitably positive on Stringy.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH LLLLLLLLLLLLLLie
