USA v Ireland
Olding starts @12
Re: USA v Ireland
I really don't see the point of Boss and Marshall being the scrum-halves for this game. Both are sub-international standard and are now old enough to never represent serious options for the future.

Trimble missing out on squad is a joke
Re: USA v Ireland
Yeah im pretty drunk off at that.
Great for the other players especially Olding.

Andy will finish his career with 50+ Ireland caps and many more for Ulster. Why is everyone getting pmt because he's not picked in the first match of a meaningless tour which incidentally is against the weakest team they'll play?
Sir, why do you think JS picked the team?

Because if he's not picked in what looks to be the strongest side Ireland can put out, then what chance does he have whenever you bring back all the Irish Lions?LastKnightoftheproms wrote:Why? Andy T is a cracking player when used correctly. It may not be the way JS wants to play rugby.

A bit annoyed that Court is TH cover too. How many times does he have to be played there and destroyed in the scrum before somebody in the Irish set up realises he's not a TH?

Re: USA v Ireland
I know this has been posted already but what channel is this game on? Former Ulster Raven Scott La Valla starting in the back row, has been doing well at Stade Francais the last 2 years. Also as we found out in the HCup Samu Manoa is a world class player

Re: USA v Ireland
1. I invite you to select the Ireland team should we be playing in the World Cup final tomorrow, but we are without our Lions players. In my opinion it wouldn't be much different to what has been selected there. Players being given a chance is rubbish, five of the 23 players are making their debuts, and some of them are only playing because of injuries. Trimble should be ahead of McFadden.LastKnightoftheproms wrote:(1) Andrew Trimble's place when the "Irish Lions" come back is irrelevant. USA is the game where boys are going to be tried. Kiss has said to expect wholesale changes. Really, what is the problem?
(2) Court is actually a loosehead prop. Clearly the heat has fried your brain. It's tight head that he struggles with. However, he might just manage to hold the scrum up against the "might" of the USA. What do ya think?
2. Ok yes, the heat is getting to me. But TH is what I meant, believe me on that. Whether or not he can hold up the USA front row is not the point, the fact he has been selected at replacement TH is rubbish because it shows that the Ireland coaches still believe he can play there - he cannot. Again, in a side that I feel is the strongest it could be, Court is our 18, and that is utter tripe.
You haven't seen me at my best yet. Let's be honest, you probably never will.

Court is covering LH v USA, Hagan is covering TH.
