Munster would be better using their academy options in backrow. a signing from leinster isnt really needed. What exactly is world class. How much would other provinces want players if theyre only going to be there for 1/2 years before moving back? Any other side who takes a player wants them to be with them long term and use them to build to future Why should Carbery if fit be a Leinster player again when there is Byrne x2, Frawley at outhalf, Keenan and others to play full back. What does that achieve exactly?? What backs would be better off in Munster and what positions are Munster really needing a signing from Leinster Only the 1? should be at least 3.....

Maybe Cronin too. The move interprovincially for less money may not be enough. At this stage the IRFU probably will focus on getting as many academy lads promoted as possible. If there's no cash flow. How do they keep the players happy?

Tim Robbins wrote: » I am in favour of this happening. A player like Max Deegan was looking world class and could actually be 4th choice at Leinster for Number 8. I wonder if a player moved for one year or two year with option of a move back would it work better for people? Certainly think Joey (if fit) should be a Leinster player again and have no issue if Munster took a few other backs.
