[QUOTE="snoopy snoopy dog dog, post: 475266, member: 13611"] That is true but equally, Kidney has failed to acknowledge a bunch of players are in serious decline. Gordon D'arcy, Leo Cullen and Donncha O'Callaghan are spent forces at international level. Paddy Wallace is neither a first team member nor is he the future. Shane Jennings has never fully grasped his opportunities at full international level and isn't playing as well as younger tyros. People are right for criticising those selections. I can understand picking D'arcy because Ireland will need experience in the centre (with O'Driscoll out) but the other picks are off the wall. Kidney is making the same mistakes that Eddie O'Sullivan made after the failed 2007 World Cup campaign- he's backing old warhorses to show a return to form when all evidence suggests he's wrong.
