Prob @leinsterrugby best performance this season. Ryan Baird has really come to the fore, his best to come too! Notable for @stmcrugby @StMichaelsColl1 community that there was 8/23 of winning @URCOfficial in the Leinster team but also 1 of the @BathRugby that won the @premrugby

Probably will shock a few people but yes, these are the 1st @lionsofficial to originate from @stmcrugby In terms of key milestones for @stmcnews, in particular it’s rugby but even more generally, this is right up there. #Lions2025 🦁 🦁 ⚔️ ⚔️
History for St Michael’s College: congratulations to James Ryan and Ronan Kelleher, the first ever Lions selected from the school. Both have been named in the 2025 British & Irish Lions squad to tour Australia.

Brilliant player, driven and very much under appreciated in the press. Stood up many times, when he was written off and mopped the floor with the nay sayers. Will go great with @gloucesterrugby
183 caps and 1194 points and counting. 🧢 🏉 Ross Byrne has been there for so many special days and is still planning for a few more. 💙 Thank you and the very best of luck in the next chapter. 🙌 #NeverLessThanEverything

I really believe with a run of games this guy will be great. Did it at school level, did it age grade level, did it at Sevens level, did at AIL level & did it at A team level. Hints at full pro level but he’ll get there.
Locked in for next season 🔒 Andrew Smith has signed a one-year contract with the province for the 2025/26 season 🙌 More info 👇 #SUAF 🔴

One fact often overlooked in Irish Rugby - there are 45 pros in other provinces that came through Leinster’s Pathway. Here’s where they are from. READ HERE: https://t.co/SONUqI8zQt

🗨 "The big goal for 2025 would be to get a start under my belt," Fintan Gunne told us in December. 💪🔵 The former @stmcnews scrum-half has been named in tomorrow's starting XV after making 1️⃣1️⃣ appearances off the bench. Go well, Fintan! 👏 #SHAvLEI #NeverLessThanEverything

A more well rounded person and dedicated player you will not find. Very linear and disciplined development path, that was pretty obvious young. What a future on the horizon! #huzzah
Having made his #LeinsterRugby debut in November 2023, Fintan Gunne has now signed his first senior contract. 🤩 Congrats to the @stmcnews and @terenurerugby man. 👏 #NeverLessThanEverything

The gift that keeps on giving | well done @Kieran_Hallett the COE, the academy and the whole organisation! #huzzah
Another proud debut for the Academy on Saturday. The game also marked another milestone in that we equalled last seasons Academy player appearance record with 6 URC rounds still to go! 🔵⚪️

What a day for @JackBoyle11886 - will be the 12th @stmcrugby @StMichaelsColl1 old boy to be capped at senior level by Ireland. Of those 12, 11 have been capped since 2014. For those interested I’ve threaded the others. #PoolsideCafe ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️

Tough night for the ☘️ 20s but that Harry Beddall is one player! Not the archetype modern backrower in terms of physique. But all heart and stubbornness, I was very impressed.
Immensely dogged win for Wales U20 and they look deservedly pumped. The top 12 tacklers in the game tells a story:

Has been a fantastic servant to @leinsterrugby & @IrishRugby. One of the best rugby intellects I’ve coached or even met & a very good friend. Will be missed. @Ross__Byrne
