Jon Jones calls Slippin' Jimmy and Johnny Sexton loves fly-fishing - It's our Comments of the Week!

As usual our readers were on form over the past seven days.

Paul O’Donohue scrapes the bottom of the barrel to find consolation after a disappointing first-half between Roscommon and Down:

Tough to watch. Not all bad though, I might get some study done instead of watching the second half

Jon Jones is in a spot of a bother at the moment in Albuquerque but Augustus Hoop has some good advice for the former UFC champion:

Better call Saul

download Jimmy McGill might be hearing from Jon Jones any day now.

We’re not sure what’s more difficult to envisage: Billy Corgan barking out orders from the sideline in Páirc Uí Chaoimh or Billy Morgan moshing to Bullet With Butterfly Wings… but Peter Lane clearly has a more active imagination than us:

You know those TV shows where they swap roles? I always wanted to see one where Billy Morgan and Billy Corgan lived each other’s lives for a week…

The next performance analysis e-mail will be kind to CJ Stander, suggests John O’Sullivan:

By a country mile best player I wonder what was said in his email

Conor Philpott reacts to Henry Shefflin’s move into the world of punditry:

“I’m taking my talents to Donnybrook”- Henry Shefflin.

And it was good news for Sean de Paore:

Hopefully this puts him out for the Shamrocks v Mullinavat game on Sunday August 16th. Best of luck to Henry in the new role.

Alex Simms suggests that Mick O’Dwyer might want to keep his boots handy in Louth:

To be honest we couldn’t be much worse if we put him on the pitch…..

Eoghan O’Sullivan says Johnny Sexton was wrong. Props can talk about scrums AND fly-fishing:

Sexton can say that but at the end of the day if The Claw were to walk into his bedroom at 4 am looking to talk about fly fishing he’d listen to every word.

The mystery as to why Kilkenny struggle at football has been cracked by Fran Duggan:

We’re losing Kieran Joyces younger brother to the AFL & now this…foreign sports are killing football in KK ;-)

Even Enda Kenny made a couple of notable appearances this week, thanks to Jax Maxwel:
