[QUOTE="big ginger 8, post: 652508, member: 53057"] I agree I think he's a hugely underrated player. He's the best Irish tighthead I've ever seen at least (although I do think Furlong will be better) and is greatly responsible for a change in our scrum culture. Not sure how he rates in terms of European tightheads. He's not the best but he's consistently near the top I'd say. I don't think you can blame one person for him being left out. We have our whole thing about overseas players and Ross was viewed as someone who'd taken so long to get a pro contract that he must ave something missing. He did also require a season of conditioning before being able to start when he came t Leinster. I was delighted to see him score the try of the year last season. :D [video=youtube_share;YLz40D5lNRc]http://youtu.be/YLz40D5lNRc?t=5m50s[/video] 5:50 [/QUOTE]
