[QUOTE="Leinster Fan, post: 893214, member: 76349"] It's very close between a lot of players on the wings behind Earls, Stockdale and Conway. Conway being inured leaves the 23 shirt up for grabs. Larmour isn't defensively solid and McFadden was poor against Wales. Everyone else is either uncapped/hardly capped. Sweetnam/Wooton are just behind him and Adam Byrne/Matt Healy have just come back from the injury but should be pushing for places in the squad fairly soon. Carbery at 12 seems unlikely to me especially against Scotland. I'd be more gone on Carbery at 10 and Sexton at 12 because Sexton has played international rugby there before. (Quite well, according to BOD). Either way it unnecessarily changes the team's structure massively when Sexton-Aki-Ringrose is a perfect option. If yet another centre gets injured we can consider it but short of that it's unnecessarily risky. Would be willing to consider Carbery at 15 though. [/QUOTE]
