[QUOTE="Leinster Fan, post: 919888, member: 76349"] I know what you're saying about McGrath and in fairness I can't deny that reputation is getting him picked, but at the same time there's a lot of value in bringing a 50 cap lion off the bench who you know you can rely on. He's much more reliable in the scrum as well and when the other front row replacements are Cronin and Porter that's key. If Kilcoyne was a young player bursting onto the scene I'd be all for it but he's 29, at his peak, not much potential upside and there's absolutely no doubt about who's a higher quality player. Agree 100% about everything you've got to say about centres. [/QUOTE]
