    I wonder what are Coombes and O'Sullivans best positions

    Coombes said he sees himself as an 8, who can play 6 or 2nd Row.

    O'Sullivan plays 8 too AFAIK


    I thought Coombes was a six but he put in a serious shift the last day. I wouldn't have the club/underage insight of others on the board but he seems to have beefed up a lot.



    I think O'Sullivan is an 8 too, promising options coming through if that's the case - we've a few more years left in Stander still but he's been running into opposition for 80 mins with no break for a good few years now - we'll miss him when he retires to sell cars on the Dock Road!

    News coming in tomorrow's TRP about the potential departure of Peter O'Mahony at Munster and the IRFU next summer.

    Front page to come later this evening #FRAvIRE
    9:32 PM · Oct 31, 2020

    This is the only place I can see anything about it, so I'm presuming its rubbish. Anyone hear anything more concrete?

    It must be contract renewal time! Although this time the IRFU will definitely be calling players bluffs.

    You would have to imagine with 23 out of 43 senior players contracts up for renewal next summer, we are bound to see some people move on or centrally contracted players move off those contracts and back to provincial contracts.

    Very very impressed with the 2 starting props, did very well against 2 old heads.
    Casey is heading towards major honours, DDA has been an immense signing.

    ean Kleyn will train fully today having been replaced after 61 minutes of Sunday’s win over Dragons with a knock.

    Darren Sweetnam (knee) will be assessed as the week goes on.

    Chris Cloete was a late withdrawal at the weekend due to a neck injury. He is not available this week but it is not expected to be a long-term injury.

    Rhys Marshall and Roman Salanoa are rehabbing respective low-grade thigh injuries.

    Dan Goggin underwent a scan on his shoulder last week and continues to rehab with the medical department.

    In player news, Ireland U20 scrum-half Ben Murphy has joined the province on a seven-week deal.

    That is a crazy injury list 4 games into the season.

    Dillane, Carty and Marmion all trained with Connacht today

    Don't know why we wouldn't get at least Daly and Ryan back

    Daly in particular hasn't played for two months. He could do with a start. With Gallagher looking quite good at 15 last week, Daly could be pushed to the wing with Sweetnam out.

    More likely the other way round. Daly needs to stake his claim for the Ireland 15 jersey, Stockdale certainly hasn't made a case to hold on to it. Gallagher played on the wing earlier in the season? Actually was it Munster A v Connacht A?

    Gallagher played on the wing against Edinburgh.

    Neil did his ACL, that's his season pretty much gone.
