[QUOTE="ruggabee, post: 615658, member: 70704"] Hard to name any stand outs. Connacht's were Carty, Leader and Marmion for me. Healy's a nippy little player and didn't do much wrong. I think Connacht are building a decent team. Very young with lots of potential. They'd do well to hold on to their talent. They show endeavor and have skillful players with pace in the backs. The team may look awful going by the table standings but they aren't losing by much. They need more than just the xv they have on the pitch. I hope they can build squad depth over time. For Leinster it's a bit worrying. Near full strength line up but you'd think otherwise with the way they played. McGrath, Murphy and Heaslip did well. Yeah. Madigan AND Gopperth were poor. With no alternative in that position we may have to get used to seeing a not so dangerous Leinster backline. It was also another one of those games where you'd think D'Arcy and BOD are really past it but then you look like an idiot for criticising them when all of a sudden they pull out a decent showing later on in the HC or for Ireland etc. I'd kill to have the Ulster backline atm. Very attractive rugby. edit. Actually D'Arcy was industrious but as a midfield MEH. [/QUOTE]
