[QUOTE="snoopy snoopy dog dog, post: 880140, member: 13611"] Put yourself in Leinster's position. Rob Kearney and Johnny Sexton are injured. You have two people, Ross Byrne and Joey Carbery, who can fill in at 10. You have one person, Joey Carbery who can fill in at 15. What selection call do you make? At Joey Carbery's age, Johnny Sexton had a grand total of 2 starts and 2 sub appearances for Leinster. I think it's much better that he's getting game time than sitting on the bench. Leinster are in a brilliant position of having 2 quality young flyhalves learned from one of Ireland's greatest ever flyhalves. There's a lot of crap being spouted on Leinsterfans that Carbery is a quality 15 and not a very good 10. These people must have forgotten his early season form last year when he was a revelation. With Rob Kearney back to full fitness and James Lowe coming into the back three freeing up Isa Nacewa to also play 15, hopefully Carbery gets a shot to play at 10 more often. [/QUOTE]
