[QUOTE="BPM, post: 835343, member: 59968"] I agree on both points. Heaslip has so much experience to offer, but personally I think Stander brings more to the side. Dropping Heaslip would allow you to bring POM in to the side which would massively help a creaking lineout. Although the lineout stats weren't too bad, stats alone don't tell the full story. Best's throwing has regressed, you were very slow getting Toner in to the air and it was all a bit too predictable. It's arguably the weakest part of Ireland's game right now and O'Mahony is your best lineout forward of the back row options. VdF is a great asset off the bench too. [/QUOTE]
