[QUOTE="munstermuffin, post: 1030723, member: 39240"] Not sure if you watch the Irish team or provinces much. But I'd argue we probably close to having the greatest depth at backrow of all the developed nations. Issue was never there. You have people like me saying likes of Rhys Ruddock or Jordi Murphy in their peak should have walked. Not because they are poor but more so far down the pecking order at Leinster. Doesn't make them poor guys more the strength of depth in Ireland there. CJ certainly had no gravy train there and struggled to break in to Munster initially. He went and bought in to something here. Many South Africans left South Africa for money and well simply just returned to play international games. The perspective is so wrong in some senses. [/QUOTE]
