I think we can create good pack players. I however feel there are bigger problems with our school and youth systems that need addressed

Players in Leinster leave school wanting to play rugby
Players in munterville at their clubs want to play for munter

Players at our schools cannot wait to give up and go abroad to study
Down with education and all that sort of thing.

Having read only hastily through the article and declaring myself a NOC, a discerning reader might well conclude that the aim has always been to churn out good solid rounded chaps who will prosper from their connections even if they may individually be cerebrally challenged.

I can neither applaud nor condemn such an ethos, merely remark on its probable existence.

All fits in with my friend John who I quoted recently about you finding some OC thinks but few of them unemployed.
