Ruckie, ever hear of the word context? YOU need to look at their BP win in the CONTEXT of who Leinster sent up to Galway for the match. An approximation of Ravens standard. I'd love them to send that side up on 21st December.ruckover wrote:Guys, we're talking as if we can afford to rest players. Connacht are coming here on the back of a rare bonus-point win over Leinster, and they won't want to then be rolled over against another Irish side the week after.
In my opinion, not just because it's the HEC the week after, but because this could be a potential banana skin match, we should be playing our full strength team bar injuries. As top team in the league we have to make sure we don't slip up or we'll be quickly caught.
Not now, but with 2 big HC games upon that will be 4 on the bounce if he plays V connacht.Snipe Watson wrote:Tuohy needs a restagainstthehead wrote:Hard to call this one. One the one hand, it seems a nice idea to start the strongest side to get them to gel. On the other hand, player freshness seems to be more significant these days. I'd be inclined to rest Afoa and maybe Tuohy if Muller is back. Would be nice to rest Williams too if Wilson was around.![]()

You see Ruckie, I tried to point you in the sensible direction, but of course, strangely you decided you know bestruckover wrote:Any win over any Leinster team is a good win Baggy, I thought a man of your experience would know that.
Certainly their backline was rather experienced - unless you are belitting the talent of Rob Kearney, Isa Nacewa and Gordon D'Arcy? Nah, they hold no threat at all.
Never underestimate anyone.

Exactly! We thought our team was so much stronger than theirs that we couldn't lose. Yet we did.BR wrote:It wasn't as weakened as theirs was!ruckover wrote: We underestimated Treviso a year ago and were duly beaten. Nobody wants a repeat of that.
