Schmit has to pursaude Stephen Ferris to stay in Europe and not go to Japan. Ireland have missed him.

Ireland have missed Stevie 'cos Deccie insisted on playing POM as his 6. If he'd played Iain Henderson, you wouldn't have noticed Ferris' absence near as much.

also looking for O'Driscoll's successor in the 13 shirt wont be easy.

It'll not be a big search; Chris Farrell or Eoin O'Malley with possible outside bet in Jared Payne (who I'd prefer to see at 15).

In fairness O'Mahony had a superb last 6 months and Henderson wouldn't have changed much as the vibe in the squad was bad from start.
Interesting question. When Jared Payne is IQ where'd we put him?

they'll find someone to fill the position, but non of them with be as good as BOD

I'd say 13... We've an abundance of very tasty wingers and fullbacks...And I reckon he's talented enough to carry off 13 well at international level...He's not BOD ..But he'll do.

In NZ, Payne started playing his best rugby when he switched (somewhat permanently) to centre. I think he would've been selected in the All Blacks by now, if he'd stayed. Really disappointing that Payne got away - bit miffed at him too!

It's amazing.. I love sloths...and hell I love Christmas too. It's a nice combination to be fair.

Perhaps a touch out of date.. But I've a little bit too lazy to apply seasonal attire to a picture of an incredibly high animal
