[QUOTE="Peat, post: 615095, member: 42330"] Barring phenomenal form on return, I'd put money on Henderson occupying shirt 19 in the Six Nations. He's missed too much gametime to really stake a claim as a starter. He and TOD - assuming form - would be my benchers, with POM/Henry/Heaslip starting. Very harsh on Ruddock but I feel Ireland would benefit from a conservative approaching to picking the starters this coming 6N, so no starting him ahead of POM/Heaslip, and he loses out to Henderson because Henderson can cover lock as well. No point having both - using Henry to suffocate the game for 60 minutes and then O'Donnell to run them ragged for 20 sounds like a useful gambit. [/QUOTE]
