[QUOTE="munstermuffin, post: 367344, member: 39240"] Well Lads - It's good to be back on Irish soil. A very quiet and depressing journey home but well I think this might be a good thing as it will force us to transfer some power but in a smart way. Like ok Quinny, Hayes, Wallace and few other's might not be what they were but it has to be said they owe us absolutely nothing as the fact of the matter is we have all had so many great days with them regardless of if you are a Munster fan or a rugby fan. Now we need to gradually introduce a few younger guys - and this analysis might sound harsh on some but if I were to pick a team next week here is what I would go with. 1. Du Preez - Is a steady player 2. Varley - A stand-out performer this season. Deserves the Irish shirt 3. Buckley - Simply because Hayes I'd rather bows out for what he was: A fine servant who gave us everything he had and more 4. DOC - Just because I want this done gradually 5. POC - Is a leader and our true captain. Did well today 6. Leamy - This is his best position and I'd like to see him or if he is at 8 then Holland had fine game Friday. 7. Wallace - Simply because Niall Ronan isn't at this level and we havent another 7 yet 8. Paddy Butler - I just want to see him have a go at this level and be 1 of the first gradual changes 9. Stringer - Did well today and there is time in him yet 10. ROG - We don't have another 10 11. Hurley - Isn't exceptional but doesn't let us down and excellent kick-chaser 12. Mafi - I think he deserves a go ahead of Sam 13. Barry Murphy - Is in good form and could be an asset if we keep him away from injury 14. Howlett - Still has alot to offer 15. Earls - Can be used brilliantly counter-runner 16. Sherry 17. Hurley 18. Hayes 19. Nagle - Let's give him some time at this level and see what he will do 20. Ryan 21. Coughlan (O'Mahony if fit) 22. T.O'L (Can cover 10 too as emergency or anywhere in backs) 23. Johne Murphy Reason I left Warwick out is, apart from being slightly concussed, he isn't certain about future. Over next few weeks I want JJ Hanrahan given games at 10 just to see. Dave Foley, Tommy O'Donnell and a few more academy guys given shots. Also lads I will say don't be surprised to see changes in coaching set-up. I think Fisher may be a casualty [/QUOTE]
