[QUOTE="Leonormous Boozer, post: 978536, member: 45598"] That tour definitely hindered Ireland more than it helped. Sean O'Brien and Jack McGrath didn't make it to the world cup, and anyone in their late 20's or 30's looked lethargic as **** by 2019. The Lions isn't the sole reason we ****** it this year but trying to work your way back into form when more than ten of your most talented players have only had one real rest period is going to hurt you. Scotland peaked in late 2017 and early 2018, the lack of Lions representation helped them. [/QUOTE]
