The second phase of this Air Europa partnership will be launched later this year and will allow Ryanair customers to connect onto Air Europa long haul flights through Madrid

Not sure what you point is re baloney? The linked press release says you can book tickets for Air Europa long haul flights from Madrid via the RYR website and at some point in the future you may be able to connect from RYR flights. Seems straightforward, even if others have read more into it?
What seems more of a stretch is that EIR is dropping the morning DUB-NCL-DUB as part of a plan for RYR to offer an earlier flight and also the ability to connect with EI's transatlantic flights. I think we can put this firmly in the box marked "speculation"
