    Without Murphy, O'Driscoll or Hickie?

    I very much doubt it.

    Where's the incisive pace in the back line going to come from?
    John Kelly? Urghh-unnhh
    Tyrone Howe? His surname's an anagram of Who 'e?
    Shane Horgan? Go on Shaggy. Use your speed!!!!!
    Girvan Dempsey? Saints preserve us.

    Maggs and/or Henderson in the centre? They'll tackle all day but make a break? Not unless you're talking about a Frenchman's nose.

    No. It will have to be a nine or ten man game and I don't think we have the power up front to beat the French up for 80 plus minutes. Got a bad feeling about this one.
