I am constantly surprised that Underhill is only 27 and Curry 25
The way the media and some people push for younger players you would think they are mid 30’s
Both of them could have another 2 RWC’s in them

How many matches has Neild played without Steve Diamond being involved?

The squads for most teams look to be the most competitive on paper at least.
It needs better scheduling, granted having the Prem cup during the six nations break would help.

He's alright, I feel he's vulnerable in the scrum quite a bit, and was very happy when I heard Nicky Smith was his replacement.
That being said if he's viewed as a 3rd choice LH you could do a lot worse.
I do feel sorry for Connacht tbh losing Henshaw after that ***le win was a massive blow.
Ulster IDK to me they just seem like they are always bottlers
The final a couple years ago at Leinster when they had Coetzee starting and Mathewson and imo on paper a team nearly level the the Leinsters...
It's exciting watching this all unfold
I want to see a Succession based drama around the IRFU and the religions with all these player movements.
Brian Cox can play Nucifora
Connacht, Munster and Ulster confronting Nucifora about these Leinster moves
Hmm true
Honestly I think after that season he didn't have the strength for a lock and should've been focused more on back row. He was always a more natural 6 IMO but he did a good job at lock for Leinster for a time
A more ruthless coach than Lancaster prob would've looked at replacing him...
