[QUOTE="munstermuffin, post: 392970, member: 39240"] Simple points about NIQ players. If done smartly then it is vital it continues. Sexton is a top class player now but few seasons ago he was at a crossroad and well alot of credit has to go to Contepomi who I understand was very helpful. In my own experiences here in Munster - John Langford changed the professionalism in Munster almost on his own which benefitted the whole squad. Jim Williams has played a huge part in Wallace's, Leamy's and Quinlans careers. I see it today Doug howlett helps Earls, Zebo and our young lads who learn from his attitude and approach. Christian Cullen did plenty of work off pitch too. And this doesn't just happen at Munster it all over Ireland. I don't agree with this argument that they're blocking an Irish player when a) We dont have a centre etc and b) The Irish lads are learning off these guys. [/QUOTE]
