The unusual announcement of the day comes straight from Ireland. The Irish Examiner reveals that Ronan O’Gara would have ordered a protective glove to allow his scrum half Tawera Kerr-Barlow to participate in the Champions Cup final which is played this Saturday May 28 (5:45 p.m.) against Leinster , Irish club.
This rather special order brought a smile (sometimes yellow) in Ireland. The glove was supplied by a company from the city of Cork, province of Munster, which is Leinster’s main rival in rugby… A funny affair, but above all useful for the people of Rochelle who should not do without Tawera Kerr in the end. Barlow. The decision will be made based on the New Zealand scrum-half’s pain threshold. Three days before the final, hope is allowed on the side of La Rochelle.
