@clontarfbrian.bsky.social @gortoshay1.bsky.social I know the family real well. Coached alongside his Dad , he's a good kid. Worked hard to go this route into Leinster. Think Scott Penny mark 2....very aggressive at ruck time.

And OF in Reidys🫡

Ha I'm not sure

A 5 month bookmark. Impressive 🫡

I think your summation is fair , I just think Scott is the guy you bring on for Maro , who is unlikely to come off.

Ryan coming off early is just a precaution in case McCarthy doesn't make it. If Joe's fit, Ryan won't be in 23 imo

Interesting to see some players being asked to do things outside their comfort zone, like Stuart filling that role out on the 15m channel. I did think the Lions missed VDF in that link role out wide at times. Adv of playing regularly with coaches system

Galway 1980 vibes

Stats like that are only part of it.
To have him as Irelands joint worst forward!

Ah here. Ryan Baird!!

Real ignorance on french depth and players that have dominated u20s for last 5 years

They just don't know most of french players names.
Ridiculously ignorant
