I know about the saintly men. Indeed I do. And I've met a few saintly women in my time, having attended a national school run by the Holy Faith Sisters. The women could be brutal too.

I chuckled so much I remembered a post about a violent teacher from the early days of Bock, when nobody read this stuff. I think I might just revive it and re-post it. Mike: Shit! Looks like Munster might need his services as well. Nora: Not so weird if you ever experienced these saintly men. Darwin: It certainly is worth a chuckle.

Does Eddie O’Sullivan know anything about the C.B.S training methods i.e. school of hard knocks, to separate early the men from the boys. The Jesuits never had the stomach to blood their pupils properly and the result we saw during the World Cup. Maybe we should at least replace “Ireland’s Call” with Roger’s poem.
