[QUOTE="Peat, post: 455808, member: 42330"] Good points Draggs, couple of things I'd highlight... The Healy/Ross combo's been in good form for quite some time actually. I'm not sure what will happen against Jenkins and Jones, but I'm not so sure its going to be advantage Wales. Don't rate Charteris, do rate Davies... probably equal between the second rows. Ireland have been playing with this sort of balance in the back-row for ages, no denying that Warburton could exploit it but no gurantee either. Will all come down to the day - so I do agree that I'm not sure the Irish pack is better. I like your backline and agree that Byrne shouldn't start. Would probably have Jones on the bench though. Also, despite what I just said, think Davies' extra size might be the correct choice for this game. If Wales can bully the Irish backline at the contact point, its going to make a massive difference.
