[QUOTE="munstermuffin, post: 879373, member: 39240"] Not knocking Porter but fact is its all hype about potential at moment. He has been selected in squad with a future view but realistically he's what maybe 6th or 7th choice tight head prop in Ireland at moment. If it were a serious game tomorrow Bent, Archer, Ah You, Bealham and Ryan would be ahead in rankings for backing up Furlong. Simply as Porter isn't even trusted to start for Leinster at moment in games like 2 weeks ago. Again not saying he's poor or won't get there just hope hype is reined in a bit until the lad does get a foundation in this position. On Byrne thing. If that is the case fair enough but why call him in then? If he can't be trusted vs Fiji at home he will never be trusted. And well again Dave Kearney hasn't earned a spot and guys like Daly should've been in so. [/QUOTE]
