[QUOTE="MunsterMan, post: 758767, member: 21908"] Ireland have a really dangerous game to play in terms of calling up replacements to the squad. Payne is out, we know this much. All signs point to O'Connell being out too. O'Mahony and Sexton appear to be ok, but the situation with O'Brien complicates things. As far as i know, suspended players cannot be replaced, just injured players. Jack Conan is the back row who was part of the warm up squad, and is favourite to be called up i presume. However, If O'Mahony is fit or will only miss 1 game, and O'Brien will miss 1-2, do we call up someone like Rhys Ruddock or Robin Copeland who can also act as emergency cover for the second row, despite the fact they are both back from long term injuries? Or do we call up Tuohy for O'Connell and Conan for Payne? Could leave us in trouble as we only have two scrumhalves and two looseheads in the squad, if one of them was to take a minor knock. Christ, i should go the bed [/QUOTE]
