Wouldn't read too much into that Ireland team until it is released.... the same websites posting this team were also posting a completely different "rumored" team for the match against France than the one that actually played.
I think they just make it up as they go along for clickbait headlines and page views.

Best, Ross, Stander, VDF, Henshaw, McCloskey & Trimble all prods???
Is there some Orange/Masonic/WASP conspiracy afoot in Irish rugby?
Can I just add that personally I dont give two hoots what religion, sex, colour or culture anyone is.
Feck it will be like the 1798 rebellion all over again. At least if we lose this one it shouldn't end with a new Rugby Act of Union.

NEVER MOVE ON. Years on, I cannot ever watch Ireland with anything but indifference, I continue to wish for the imminent death of Donal Spring, the FIRFUC's executioner of Wee Paddy & Wee Stu, and I hate the FIRFUCs with undiminished passion.

Re: Six Nations Week 3
I hope that irrespective of who else is picked, that Henshaw is picked at 13 & is truly magnificent.
This is the vital first step of removing the 12 Henshaw 13 Payne 15 Bob catastrophe.

Re: Six Nations Week 3
Just a heads up - if you prefer watching the RTE coverage v BBC/ITV - only the Wales France game this weekend will be available via Sky/Virgin platforms. If you get RTE through freeview, you will be able to watch all 3 games.

Well done and good luck Stu. Put the fear of God into Farrell big lad. 
Volunteer at an animal sanctuary; it will fill you with joy , despair, but most of all love, unconditional love of the animals.
