[QUOTE="Leinster Fan, post: 936730, member: 76349"] Good performance overall, I'd only say Murray and Aki had poor games, everyone else was excellent. Henderson, Stander and Healy were the standouts to me. The actual scoreline is a bit disappointing and we need to be more clinical in the opp 22, especially against Wales. The back three were very good, I thought Stockdale and Larmour had a few iffy moments but in general they all did well. Ringrose wasn't quite at his best but he showed just how vast the gulf between him and Farrell is. Aki wasn't great. Sexton looked back at his best, Murray didn't. The pack were all excellent. For next week I'd like to see Kearney for Larmour (if fit) and Henshaw for Aki (again if fit). If Josh vdf is out, then SOB is the most likely to replace him. Leavy would be an option if fit, but I'd be reluctant to start him in with no rugby. There's always Jordi too and a Stander-O'Mahony-Conan backrow did well enough today, and coped well enough against Australia as well. If we're serious about beating Wales I think Marmion is our best option. If we're talking about other unforced changes then maybe Beirne and Porter on the bench but Dillanne did well today. [/QUOTE]
