Slowly reaching their sell-by In 8 matches last year BoD scored one try against Italy this year he has scored 2 trys in 6 outings which is twice as many as last year in 7 games for Leinster.

If he wasn't one of the best defensive centres in the world I won't even consider him for leinster

His other great strength is his timing of a pass and at least wingers have an opportunity to score playing outside him but is that really enough to justify a place on a plane for the Lions .Personally i doubt it.

Anyway no surprises on the team which is pretty much par for this course.

Should be a tough game but I think we have a decent chance of grabbing a win. Hopefully we'll see a couple of tries for Ireland. Would be great for young Gilroy to get one in his first capped game....but I don't care who gets them as long as we win.
It is a man's own mind, not his enemy or foe, that lures him to evil ways.

Is it Sexton's choice to keep the ball away from D'Arcy and get the ball into Gilroy's hands?

Very confused by what is going on

Players' revolt?

Does anyone know what the "hump" in the Ireland shirts is?

Maybe they heard gorgeous George say beforehand 'for the greater part of rugbys 150yr history there were no coaches and players had to make decisions'

Collects performance data I would have thought, how many metres everyone's running, Gilroy's will need to be reset at half time the amount he's clocked so far!

GPS?

It is used to record their work rate, field position and coverage.
