That's great, then come play for Ulster and prove your better than Henry.

Exactly this Windeos, if true. Do we want someone quite as openly defeatist, I'm pretty sure Joe Schmidt wouldn't. If he did come and lock horns with Henry and at least gain some parity he'd be in green before he knew it.

Exactly, which I think he is capable of doing. If he was even competitive with Henry for the 7 shirt he would be on the fast track to caps with Ireland. Even with Henry being an international now, with the limited amount of games they get to play with their club sides, O'Connor would get plenty of starts for Ulster anyway.

If true, it's probably a negotiating position. It would be excellent if we had two guys to rotate or select horses for courses.

I could be wrong Snipe & apologies to Clive if I've added 2 + 2 and got 5, but I posted on the DH thread this morning that that might be possible but ain't based on info.

Wouldn't want young Brendie coming over and glypes thinking he's a wrong'un. Not that he's coming you understand. :D
