[QUOTE="snoopy snoopy dog dog, post: 867581, member: 13611"] It won't be Johnny Sexton because he's obviously entrenched as the top 10 on the island. He's also likely to see his game time seriously limited due to his month long Lions exhibition excursion. Joey Carbery will be mandated to play 10 due to Paddy Jackson's absence and will get a lot of games there. Ross Byrne probably sees this as an opportunity to supplant Joey Carbery and force his way into the international setup. I can't see any of them moving. A buyout/season long loan deal for Ian Madigan would be more realistic (still not very realistic). Madigan is out of the international picture playing in England's second tier. A season long move to Ulster would put him back in the international window and also allow him return to Bristol once they're back in the Premiership rather than playing a poor standard in the Championship and save the English club a bucket load in wages. Bill Johnston is another option on a loan from Munster. Alternatively, Angus Curtis could be promoted from within. [/QUOTE]
