[QUOTE="Smurfy, post: 1139511, member: 85743"] On the hooker I’d bring Herring and Stewart, and whichever of Sheehan or Kelleher is likely to be fit for the Sa/Scotland games. I’d bring Loughman regardless of Killer’s fitness, and I think I’d have Earls ahead of Stockdale, and McCloskey ahead of Frawley simply because he’s a specialist centre and we already (presumably) have Crowley as a utility back. I thought Prendergast looked vey raw on Saturday and am not sure how he would cope against a side that generated more pace on the game and demanded better decisions, so if there is any possibility of him being fit for the SA game I’d bring Conan. I really would love to know why Farrell doesn’t rate Coombes, because for me he looks to have the hands and football nous to fit into the Irish gameplan. ive heard that it’s pace, but he’s never looked that shabby in that department in the open field, and he’s got an excellent workrate from what I’ve seen. I’m certain Faz has excellent reasons for his decision, but I can’t see them. [/QUOTE]
