Lads its fine, Fergus will be flown out. With that in mind I propose a backline of,
Murray, PJ, Fergus, Fergus, Fergus, Fergus and Payne. Fergus to take the kicks...Last edited by Jackie Brown; 20th-June-2016, 20:03.Commemorate Nevin Spence here -

Originally posted by Munsterboy View PostMy main concern would be Paddy and Olding being targeted defensively. They're both solid tacklers but they're a bit small.
Much as I like Payne at FB, with Henshaw out and McCloskey at home (ffs) our best centre pairing may be Marshall 12, Payne 13 with TOH at 15.
Up front I wonder is it time to rest Henderson? Dillane at lock with Stander at 6 would freshen things up and add two serious carriers to the side. The Ulsterman makes a great impact sub. Ruddock did enough to retain the 7 shirt I reckon. Had a very solid game.
Front row I'd start McGrath, Best and probably Ross, holding Furlong back for impact. Think I'd put Cronin on the bench. He's not the best thrower but he's a real impact player, unlike Strauss. I worry about Killer's scrummaging. Who else have we as a sub LH?Erse end of nowhere

In any case, McGrath has an immense engine on him and can go close to 80 mins if needed (if he can avoid injury). He is one of the very few (maybe the only) world class players on the Ireland team. Can't think of a better all-round LH prop in any country at the moment. He is the unsung hero of this tour.

Conor has the calm assassin about him. I reckon the young Saffer Faffy will be as good as Aaron once he gains some experience outside of the space invading game down south.Gwan Joe!!

Nyakane is out for Boks with an ankle injury so another prop will be drafted in"There are a lot of points that we’ve left behind and this is with a young group. That probably tells you what they’re capable of and that they’re a very good side.
Probably next year or the year after next they will take some stopping"

If Ireland can keep their focus, play to their considerable strengths, and play out to the finish I see no reason why we can't win this series, despite what the bookies are saying.____________________________________________
