Well MunsterMan - Coughlan didn't make team but neeeded a rest and that was part of selection there.
Agreed too on Varley being Irelands best option at 2 and very strong and comfortable on the ball this season.
Coonor yes we had alot of possession in the 1st half but 3 points from the amout of chance we had is poor (considering we didn't score until 39th min)
Niall Ronan really disappointed me today and seemed like he just didn't turn up today. Leamy really was immense and lead the team well.
Paulie came back and well we have built him up and well he has the bit of weight back for first time in years and that could be a benefit as he seemed that bit stronger than before.
If I was to predict the team for next Sunday it will possibly be along lines of:
1. Du Preez
2. Varley
3. Buckley
4. DOC
5. MOD
6. Quinny
7. Wally
8. Leamy
9. Stringer
10. ROG
11. Murphy
12. Tuitupou
13. Earls
14. Douggie
15. Warwick
16. Sherry
17. Dave Ryan
18. The Bull
19. Paulie
20. Coughlan
21. TOL
22. Mafi
23. Denis Hurley
That would be my rough guess but it has been discussed possibly having just TOL and Hurley/Mafi on bench as only 2 backs with Donnacha Ryan the other forward.
I feel Denis is unlucky to loose out on wing as he is playing well in general while Mafi has been poor in fairness since JDV came last season.
