[QUOTE="Peat, post: 734469, member: 42330"] All that grief you gave me earlier in the thread and you couldn't find space for SOB on that list?! I personally think Ireland could cope entirely with POC not making the team as a player (particularly if Ryan is finally fit and firing), but the loss of his leadership would diminish the team hugely as neither Heaslip nor Best are in some distance of being able to replace him there. Personally I think there's an argument that Robbie Henshaw is already on the list for Ireland. But other than Murray, Sexton, and POC as a leader, I think it's very fluid for Ireland in terms of who's vital. And to think people were saying the opposite about a year ago... none of our scrum-halves are an essential presence (I bet there's a few around who'd rather chuck both and start again with Simpson), it's merely essential that one of them is in form and that he is given the job.
