[QUOTE="snoopy snoopy dog dog, post: 833895, member: 13611"] If we want to keep Ireland's top players in Ireland, then it's absolutely the right decision not to pick players for the international team if they're playing for a club offshore. Johnny Sexton was an exception because he was that far ahead of his competitors. Conor Murray is perhaps the only current international who falls into the same category as Sexton did. Ian Madigan isn't as good as Paddy Jackson nor does he have as high a ceiling as Joey Carbery. Given the fact that he's playing in France, I'd seriously consider selecting Jack Carty and Ross Byrne ahead of him too. Marty Moore is a very good player but right now he isn't better than Finlay Bealham in open play or John Ryan at scrummaging. It's absolutely the correct call not to pick him. [/QUOTE]
