Stockdale has "had experience" playing at Full Back - and failed miserably. He is INCAPABLE of defending, as we saw only a few weeks ago against Toulouse... So, please NO
@lizzyhanahoe4197 He is well versed in the defensive positioning of 15 and it would also allow for better angles in using his left boot to ease pressure. He would not be a problem at 15. The suggestion of Sean playing on the wing was a little tongue in cheek after his brilliant sprint and try for the under 20's in Cork.
"It frustrated Finn" - not so much that he EVER attempted to break the "dueling". Each occasion that the kicking went on, it was the French who decided to end it. Russell was clearly attempting to run down the clock, with Scotland having only a six point lead and twenty minutes to go. It all suggests that Russell (who is most certainly NOT a "genius") seems incapable of winning a game...
Ah but Michael sure Russell is the best 10 in the world...a genius...plays the game with a smile on his face but he gets frustrated....frustrated with the kicking duel against France... frustrated by his own team when Wales had them on the run.....frustrated with his teammates when they wouldn't listen to him against Wales as he clearly stated in the after match interview thus making sure he was absolved from all blame for the collapse....as a matter of fact I think he is also the best captain in the world too. 😂😂
O'Harlohan is in Connacht, Mike Lowery at Ulster, not sure is Zebo able to play 80 minutes anymore and there would have to be cover on the bench for him ,Fawley would be my choice,
@DS-ty2nb what that one line break then with Larmour actually ducking under him to clinch the game for Leinster. a Then a tackle v ulster? Z is so bloody over rated why do munster fans do this? Same with POM. Pete can only dream of producing an 80 min like Baird yet its just a given that he will return And this is not leinster bias. Hodnet shows him up every time he plays. Prendergast is a beast on a player. Tom Ahearn is a star at 6 or in the rows. Beirne at 6 would allow a beefier pack option. Deegan and Penny tackle carry and score tries (ok penny is not a lineout option) but why do we keep doing this picking "liginds" who are past it? Sexton was out on his feet in the ¼s but they never brought Crowley on. I mean it must be obvious by now that inexperienced crowley was a better option at the end than a bo11ixed Sexton. Kiwis drop their legends as soon as there is someone better and they don't lose to Japan or get booted out of WC by f*****g Wales... or even by US when we should have won handy (ish) it's so bloody frustrating. We brought Earles to the WC to get him his 💯 caps instead of running out Nash Daley. We kept pumping time into Carbery hoping he would show form then losing Hogan and running Crowley at 12. We give Frawley 60 seconds v a mullered 14 man France who never look like scoring. The only team who can beat Ireland is ireland and it wouldn't shock me if we do! End rant
@@daithipol not a Munster fan but Zebo has been very good this season when he’s played and Pom is a great servant to Irish rugby and that’s why he is captain but remember he’s 34 he’s not getting younger give him 1 year or so and I’ll be replayed by Baird or we will move birne to back row
Wales in the second half against scotland, reminded me of junior cup rugby at home, back inthe 70s. They can only get better. The ball will always beat the man if delivered at speed!
Christ you guys have only 38k subscribers on RTE sports. I reckon if I could be arsed, I could do better. One might say, well go on then and fair enough. The thing is there are people that are not state run that do much better. What's the craic?
Are you sure you know anything about rugby ? Full back out let’s think? We can play our best out half at 15 ? Play our best winger at 15 ? What could go wrong ? Henshaw at 15 ? Shit that didn’t work bad England team took us apart ! Warren gatland would have a field day
@johncahalane7327 at the moment he's not even trusted at ulster in his own position the lad is a liability in defence and positioning I can't believe he's even still in the conversation.
Kieran frawley would be my choice as he’s done with lenister at 15
I thought Bernie was taking a nap in the car

So, please NO
Surely Larmour is worth a look
We need a 10 who can play 10! Why move a great 10 to 15 and put in a second rate 10? Stupid is what stupid says!
Put Lowe at 15 and put Sean Edogbo on the wing!! 🤪
Interesting. Has Lowe played 15 before?

Thanks, makes good sense. @@brianjenningsjinartist8687

Loose head is a concern if Porter gets injured.
Joe McCarthy has a brother Paddy at Leinster 😂
What about Simon Zebo.
Too old, terrible fashion sense. Good disco dancer though
Michael Lowry
No chance as he’s not even a guaranteed starter at Ulster
Too small to be a test 15
O'Harlohan is in Connacht, Mike Lowery at Ulster, not sure is Zebo able to play 80 minutes anymore and there would have to be cover on the bench for him ,Fawley would be my choice,
Zebo is still very good

Alot of praise for Baird, but no mention to the two penalites he gave away.
Henshaw if ringrose is back. Mc closkey deserves a game again was great

Frowley at 15
Mixed up at a point Birch
Bring back Zeebs
Johnny Murphy is OFF THE CHARTS in this podcast. Probably a decent fella but his analysis is so bland. Almost like a skit from Apres Match.

Jacob stockdale
Can't tackle or defend to save his life and would be a liability at full back, especially at Test level.
He's not even trusted in Ulster with that position
As is said in Ulster - NEVERRRRR! 😉
