    Well, i can't wait to see him back in the Magners league cutting open defenses and everyone will be saying he has regained his form. it could be never the case that with the Lions and with Ireland in the RWC his poor showing was not down to a loss of form but was in fact attributable to him facing superior opposition. I know his supporters will apportion most of the blame to Irish forwards for giving him slow ball but i really think that's clutching at straws.

    I'm a big fan of D'Arcy's but I will also be the first to admit he was sh!te in this tournament. I don't think it was down to superior opposition though. (I your average Heineken cup, he's played against - or with - some of the better players who've come against us in this tournament).
    I think perhaps he's just suffered the worst from being in the middle of what was, by any standards (not just ours), a stagnant backline!

    It'll be interesting to see where he fits back in. Leinster seem to be doing just dandy without the World Cup Five, going to Cardiff and getting a result is a great achievement.
