[QUOTE="Mrs. Peter Quinn, post: 503401, member: 12190"] Can't fault the standard of rugby out there yesterday. As sickening as it is to see Leinster so dominant in Europe, they deserve every success that comes to them, such a fantastic team Meanwhile Ulster are an odd bunch. Capable of brilliant results and they have the beating of most sides out there, but at the same time I can think of very few other top teams out there who would have lost by so much, even against an in-form Leinster. No.10(what's his name?) had an absolute shocker. I remember about four touches from him - A kick out on the full, a screwed drop goal, taking the ball into contact despite Trimble on the overlap, and one pretty decent clearance kick. here's hoping his confidence isn't hit too hard by it. Why is Sean O'Brien so much better at 7 for Leinster than Ireland? He was always there. Not that he's the quickest 'jackal' type in the position, more like when he get's in there he stays there and usually comes out with the ball or a penalty. That it works for Leinster but not Ireland must be a balance issue. Thinking of the England tour to Seth Efrica I'd be more then happy for Haskell to play that sort of game for us at 7 - Strong, excellent impact clearing out, and a pain in the arse around the breakdown - In sum, a proper 6.5!
