    The Roman numeral for 8 is VIII. You could use the Irish for 8 which is JH.

    Not surprised by either. Lancaster basically said as much for Lowe and said Ringrose would be back in the next week or two. Meaning two.

    Or Christmas themed - Lowe Actually.

    With rumours of Tracy and Byrne starting and McGrath on the bench for Ireland it doesn't look like a huge amount of the players will be coming back...!

    It seems like we can only hope for Bent, Murphy, one of Conan or Ruddock and Dave.

    Byrne, Cronin, Bent, Fardy, Molony, Conan, Murphy, Deegan, JGP, Byrne, McFadden, Reid, O'Loughlin, Daly, D.Kearney

    Porter, Byrne, Heffernan, Nagle/Doris,Timmins, McCarthy, Marsh, Larmour

    There could easily be other injuries I'm forgetting

    I certainly can't see us getting Ruddock back anyway. And either Conan or Murphy are likely to be the extra back row. I'd also bet that Dave will stay with the squad as well. The other problem is that anyone we do get back won't have trained at Leinster for weeks. Not sure on the status of Nagle, Leavy or Daly either. Our back row stocks will probably be tested severely.

    That's really where he's needed at the moment I suppose with Rob, Dave, Carbery, Byrne, Daly and Lowe unavailable. Would have thought they'd put him at FB and Larmour on the wing though.

    Glad to see Deegan getting the start even with Conan released. Team should be good enough to get a win but I certainly wouldn't be counting on a BP for this one.

    Dragons team:

    15 Angus O’Brien, 14 Jared Rosser, 13 Adam Warren, 12 Jack Dixon, 11 Ashton Hewitt, 10 Gavin Henson, 9 Sarel Pretorius; 1 Sam Hobbs, 2 Ellis Shipp, 3 Lloyd Fairbrother, 4 Joe Davies, 5 Matthew Screech, 6 Aaron Wainwright, 7 Ollie Griffiths ©, 8 James Benjamin.

    Replacements; Gerard Ellis, Luke Garrett, Brok Harris, Rynard Landman, Ben Roach, Dan Babos, Arwel Robson, Connor Edwards.

    That's exactly where Larmour should be imo.
    And hopefully will nail down that spot over the next couple of seasons.
    I'm not anti Rob K by any means, I just think Larmour has the potential to usurp him pretty rapidly.

    Our pack is more than a match for them. Home at the RDS after a long break. Players will be very up for this.

    I'd be exceptionally disappointed if we didn't out 5 on these lads

    would be said to lose the 2nd playmaker.

    Larmour has a lot of work to do positionally..

    With Ireland:
    Healy, McGrath, Tracy, Furlong, Toner, Ryan, SOB, Ruddock, McGrath, Sexton, Henshaw, Byrne, R Kearney, D Kearney

    Injured:
    M Kearney, Leavy, VDF, Heaslip, Carbery, Ringrose, T Daly, B Daly

    Add to that the fact that Lowe isn't up to speed yet and that's 23 players we're missing. With that much in the way of absentees I'm pretty happy with that squad.

    Scratch team who haven't played in a few weeks made up of 2nd and 3rd string players. I'd look for a solid win but 4 tries will be precisely what it's referred to....a bonus.

    He makes up for his positional naivete with his pace.

    He is however very small and haven't seen him get very high in the air yet under the high ball.

    Not a full strength team presumeably because its against the Dragons.

    A chance for a few down the pecking order to put their hands up.

    To be fair it's probably a marginally better side than the one that took the field against Glasgow a few weeks back and they managed 3 tries against a superior team. Probably should have bagged the 4th really. At home against a relatively poor Dragons side (albeit they haven't come bearing the white flag) I'd be hopeful that we could get all 5.

    The Scarlets team was completely. There are a few of the Dragons players from that 23 that have been selected for this week too so a bit less so on their part.

    Yeah, he wasn't too bad overall but definitely looked like a guy getting his first cap. That kick was one to forget. :D
