With Madigan not getting a sniff this year and presumably gone at the end of the season, we're an injury to Burns away next season from having to play someone at out half who does not have a lot of professional game time there. Curtis contract running out also.

Next year you have Burns, Lowry then ? JHumph

We must be in the market for an outhalf.

Ah ha :thumleft: would love Madigan to get a few more games if that's the case, he's a very wise head amongst a young backline.

Couldn’t agree more. I know we need to prepare for the future and blood some younger talent but we also need to look after the present and I still don’t think Burns is the answer.

Still no new contract announced for Ross Byrne, anyone know where he is off to?

Great defender and kicker.

Comparative to Grandpa Sexton all in Ireland are, I have him ahead of Burns? all shyte at Munster with Carty blowing hot and cold in the west. Doubt we'd be allowed an NIQ.

Seen nothing from Lowry other than he was a good out half at school to suggest he is a long term answer.

Leinster dont do individual contract announcements, all extensions will be announced in one go after the 6 nations.

:thumleft: True, but Byrne only penned a one year contract last year, how likely is he to sign again. Just speculating.

O'Gara was interviewed on Off the Ball and said he is very excited by Hume and has been tracking him for some time. If he doesn't get a look in with Ireland soon enough he could be off for a pay day in France and I wouldn't blame him.

Yes I'm aware of that but if he is not getting fair crack at Ireland caps in the next 2 years he could well be off to get big pay day. I would think recruitment is planned for most clubs at least 2 years in advance if they can, which is probably one of the reasons why O'Gara is tracking him.
