    He's been playing that style for the last few years for Leinster and doing it very effectively, maybe he doesn't prefer playing that way but we have no idea. I said it earlier but the fact he can play either way comfortably is a huge thing in his favour, almost as useful as covering multiple positions

    I really think Zebo's main competition for the 23 jersey is now RK.

    Maybe, but similar to having Lydiate in 20 jersey having RK in 23 jersey is quite limiting should injury strike early in the game.

    except he excels in both of those roles. See absolutely numerous Leinster games this season.

    Murray is the most improved player on this tour IMO. What he has shown in glimpses in the past he is doing an more regular basis now

    Brumbies out on their feet.


  • Registered Users Posts: 30,308 Mod ✭✭✭✭.ak


    Lions looking good now, eventually. But I think we should've kept it in the hands there...


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,658 ✭✭✭Kanrith


    Sky seem to really love Faletau


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,341 ✭✭✭Dave_The_Sheep


    "Might just have shaded Heaslip".

    Yeah, right.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,815 ✭✭✭Burgo


    "Feletau may just have shaded Heaslip"

  • Registered Users Posts: 30,308 Mod ✭✭✭✭.ak


    Silly from Murray there. No communication, support HAD to bosh their way over it.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,234 ✭✭✭trouttrout


    I really don't get the Toby F love in, he's played well tonight but where was the gushing love in for Heaslips performances?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,658 ✭✭✭Kanrith


    To be fair, the breakdown today as been pretty bad. No support.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,612 ✭✭✭Lelantos


    Murray needed some support there

    Really?

    Unless SOB was injured, why would he take him off instead of Feletau if he was planning on starting Feletau on Saturday?


  • Registered Users Posts: 817 ✭✭✭Chabals Beard


    Ginger aggression!!

    Faletau has actually had a great game, especially in the 2nd half. Only issue is Gatland has clearly made up his mind at 8, otherwise SOB would've played 8 for the final period and let Faletau get a breather.

    TBH Heaslip has been the better tourist, fully deserves to start the 1st test.
