Will Stuart Lancaster be a uniting force at Connacht?
The news that Stuart Lancaster is taking over as the head coach of Connacht has caused huge excitment out west. The former England head coach and Leinster senior coach, who departed from his most recent role at Racing 92 in February, has signed a two-year deal to succeed Pete Wilkins who resigned in April. It's a serious coup for Connacht. During Lancaster's seven seasons in Dublin, Leinster won the 2018 Champions Cup as well as four successive Pro14 titles. If he brings even a fraction of that success to his new job he'll be given hero status, and while there's no guarantees in top-level rugby, the Against The Head panel are certain the province is bringing in a figure of real pedigree. "I think he's done more for Connacht this week than spending €100,000 on an advertising campaign, because he's got to Galway, he's met the staff, he's met some of the players, and everyone knows what he did in Leinster," said Bernard Jackman. "You speak to any of the Leinster players, they're incredibly complimentary about his understanding of how to build, how to coach, how to run training sessions which at Leinster is hard because of the numbers but he ran brilliant training sessions, his philosophy on the game, how he develops leadership culture. I think Connacht players are ecited, Connacht fans are excited. "He's a great get. Fair play to the IRFU and Connacht for getting him. "I think it also shows the investment they made in facilities is obviously important for the players and staff, but someone like him... he was on the short list for the Wales job, he was down to the last two for Australia. If he'd bided his time he could have got some big jobs in Europe and he's picked Connacht." Donal Lenihan echoed those sentiments, highlighting the quality of the Connacht production line as another factor that potentially lured Lancaster back to Ireland. "The fact he was over there to watch his son (Dan) playing for Racing recently obviously opened his eyes to what's happened out west for the past number of years," he said. "But there is an incredible number of real quality young players. "I think Lancaster is tailor-made for them. If I was in charge of selling season tickets for Connacht I'd be absolutely thrilled because my job has been done overnight. "I was out with Johnny Sexton at a function recently and he spoke in glowing terms about what Lancaster did for Leinster. "Just his capacity to bring everybody on board, to actually coach, to improve players, to work with people and make them better. People then as a consequence really want to work with him, for him. That's a uniting element in any dressing room."

GAA club selling commemorative Shane MacGowan jerseys ahead of All-Ireland clash
A GAA Club is flogging commemorative Shane MacGowan jerseys ahead of Tipperary's clash with Laois in the All-Ireland quarter finals. Priced at €54, Shannon Rovers GAA Club are selling the blue and yellow jerseys, with the late Pogues singer's face emblazoned across the bottom. In a statement on their Facebook page, Shannon Rovers GAA Club wrote: 'We have had a lot of people looking to get their hands on the Tipperary Shane MacGowan Commemorative jerseys as Tipp enter the All-Ireland series next weekend. 'Hopefully we will get a few days out in Croke Park and an opportunity to wear our commemorative jerseys. 'To answer the call, we will now be selling our jerseys in a number of locations from this Monday coming. Check out the poster for more info. "We will also have a pop up shop for one day only in Nenagh (beside Easons) on Saturday June 14th. Please note stock is limited! 'As always you can still order online through our web-shop. Alan Tynan, O' Reilly Sports and of course the Tipperary senior hurling team are showing off the commemorative jersey in the image.' Shane's sister Siobhan also backed the initiative. She recently opened up in a YouTube documentary called The Local about Shane's love for Tipperary and how Ireland 'shaped' his identity. She said Shane – who died in November 2023 – found Ireland's way of life much easier to live in. She said: 'I think if Shane would describe his connection to Nenagh in Tipperary to people that he just had loved them since he was a child like you know, I think that Shane's connection to Tipperary and Ireland in general, really shaped Shane's identity, because when we were in England, dad made it very clear to us that we were Irish. 'We weren't brought up as English, so we had a lot of Irish culture in England, even so, between music and books and the culture exposed to at home. 'But when Shane came over to Ireland, I think he really fit in. He found the way of life much easier. 'He didn't like the strictness in school, I suppose, everywhere, but the schools in England were very strict. Life was more strict, more structured, more ordered. And he actually loved the freedom of Tipperary and the easiness of the Irish people.'

Live GAA games on TV and being streamed this weekend and the ones that miss out
Newly-crowned Joe McDonagh Cup champs Kildare's foray into the SHC preliminary All-Ireland SHC quarter-finals, with a Newbridge clash to relish against Dublin, will not be televised live - or even shown live on GAA+, the association's streaming service, this weekend. As the All-Ireland SFC group stage reaches its finale, the group two meeting of Kerry and Meath on Saturday and the all-Ulster meeting of Tyrone and Cavan in group two on Sunday are also absent from the live TV and streaming schedules. Instead, the SFC group clashes of Roscommon v Cork, Dublin v Derry and Galway v Armagh - last year's All-Ireland finalists - will be shown live by GAA+ on Saturday, along with the meeting of Laois v Tipperary in the SHC preliminary All-Ireland quarter-finals. RTÉ's live fare will be served up on Sunday afternoon, with the SFC group games Monaghan v Down and Donegal v Mayo being shown back to back.
