[QUOTE="snoopy snoopy dog dog, post: 851996, member: 13611"] This is significant, especially when you consider those taken ahead of them (Scannell, Stockdale, O'Loughlin, Ryan) are younger players. Delighted for Dave Heffernan, Rory O'Loughlin and John Cooney especially as neither inclusions were flagged. Who would have thought at the start of the season that any of those players would be in contention for international honours. James Ryan and Andrew Porter are very progressive calls. Billy Holland and Michael Bent would have been the safe picks but the former Ireland u20 stars have massive potential. Had they not been called up now, it could have been after the 2019 World Cup before they appeared on the scene. [/QUOTE]
