[QUOTE="munstermuffin, post: 304213"] <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (snoopy snoopy dog dog @ Feb 21 2010, 12:39 PM) [url='index.php?act=findpost&pid=437800']<{POST_SNAPBACK}>[/url]</div> That would be a great signing. I think there'll be a lot of upheavel among the Munster playing staff when the 2011/12 season comes around. With the World Cup coming up in October 2011, it's possible that a 34 year old Ronan O'Gara, 73 year old John Hayes, 35 year old David Wallace, 37 year old Alan Quinlan, 33 year old Peter Stringer and 34 year old Marcus Horan will decide that's the right time to hang up their boots. Jerry Flannery too has struggled with injuries and may be on his last legs then too. 2011/12 could see them begin moulding a new team along the following lines (with a couple more non-Ireland qualified players thrown in): 15. Felix Jones 14. Denis Hurley 13. Keith Earls 12. Lifeimi Mafi 11. Johne Murphy 10. Paul Warwick 9. Tomas O'Leary 1. Dave Ryan 2. Sean Cronin 3. Tony Buckley 4. Donnacha Ryan 5. Paul O'Connell 6. Denis Leamy 7. Niall Ronan 8. Peter O'Mahony ............................................................................ Back on topic: Shane Williams to Toulon [url="http://www.walesonline.co.uk/rugbynation/rugby-news/2010/02/21/toulon-want-super-shane-williams-91466-25879920/"]http://www.walesonline.co.uk/rugbynation/r...91466-25879920/[/url] [/b][/quote] Snoop let's not forget DOC is young enough too and O'Mahony will battle with Leamy for 8 and Ryan probably in at 6. Also Buckley is no spring chicken either and I'd rather see us bring an import in there at tighthead. Quinny will be 36 in July so he'll probably be used sparingly next season before he bow's out. And Stringer will be gone at end of season. But that team sounds good and we forgetting the likes of Deasy who can improve. Back on Shane Williams, sounds like a move only for the money as my 2 ways are looking at it are: -He's moving to gain big pay-day before retirement -Or he's playing games to draw more money out of Ospreys [/QUOTE]
