The reality is we will need them both, maybe a 3rd

That would be my preference as well.

But that's his job. Like, imagine why you did sacked, Andy? Well, I picked a bunch of players who I never really thought were good enough, but a bunch of fans who supported those teams wanted me to pick them, so I did. Well at least them fans are in the same boat. Oh no they still hate my selections

Both will play a lot over the next 2 years.

The other point would others look better with better players yeah maybe I just find it unfathomable that after all the Ireland A games and development tours and with how interconnected our system is thouse with more insight and experience than anyone are missing big chunks of players

Sam has been done to death at this stage. I'm moving on from it. When he plays well, it's because of the pack and so on. My honest opinion is Farrell picks him because he's a better passer and kicker with more appreciation for space.

The last few years have not convinced me that there are others really able to challenge them

I think Hendersons on his last legs. Edogbo becomes a live option. Conan still looks at the level, but I'd start bringing Gleeson in and rotating. I'm not convinced by either centre just yet but agree it's now or never.

No, that's daft, just wondering who should be kicked out of the squad

I'd say South Africa is in another bracket again this year, winning in New Zealand Paris and Dublin with room to spare.

Jesus, it's only an 11 wins buffer even with all the great history and beating the All Blacks 100 years ago. The way things are going that could flip in your lifetime.

That's over 10 years, and not all of it. Farrell 2016 to 2019 was Joe Shmidt

You have a bottom 1 2 and 3. Did Cardiff suck up all the funding as has been proposed since they hit the wall and now play rugby on easy mode with union money
