Tomas is a disaster, and has been for two years now, his confidence is shot to s. Earls, frustrates the hell out of me. Always seems to take the wrong option. O'Callaghan is a liability with the amount of pens he gives away.
On the positive side, Fla looking good, still needs a full game. Healy and O'Brien (when carrying) looked good. Paulie played well in patches.

Spot on. And to be quite honest i was against the idea of bringing the kid Murray as he was to inexperienced but what other choice do we have now? TOL is a liability! And he was just as bad in the 2010 6nations. We were screaming for reddan to be brought in and at-last that happened but DK is stubborn beyond belief! Going bac to TOL over and over again. Its starting to look like madness.
I would love to see that stats on handling errors not by TOL but by the others when they had to take the ball of their shoe laces and how many passes went to ground before being picked up and then our guys got smashed by a very well organised french rush defence.
The only thing TOL has got going for him is that over all the team played very badly. I though we were way more organised in the other games and as soon as we field our best 15(22) we implode in epic fashion.
Yet more proof that DK has been far to conservative in his selections and while we have 5 warm up games 4 played only once have we seen our best team play together. Utter rubbish performance.
Ye Leeds O'Brian was his usual solid self, deserved his try. He can be expected to play 7 tho. Ferris has to start next week and now Felix is confirmed as out of the running... McFadden must be feeling more confident of a place. Geordan Murphy in??
Tom Court also was solid enough when he came in. Tony Buckly can go and swim to New Zealand leaving just the legend that is the bull Hayes to go. 4 Prop Forwards enough?
DOC i didn't see him do much wrong? Tho if its a leader your after in the lock position. Leo Cullen must be thinking "what the hell do i have to do"
The 30 are announce at lunchtime today i think.
That should have read o'brian CAN'T be expected to play 7
Couldn't belive Lenihans comments after the game Dingbat, that Murphy and the Bull were told six weeks ago they wouldn't be going. WTF?
TOL-out
Luke Fitz-out
Conor Murray-in
Geordan Murphy-in
I know mate WTF was that. Lenihan threw the cat among the pigeons right then!
Anything in the papers about it? or is everyone on the DK bandwagon whistling silence...
Ye Leeds. just posted the squad. Paddy wallace on the plane.... nice
