He may get game time but will he get the ball?

He might pick off a pass and intercept? Or accept a hospital pass from Keatley

Hopefully he gets a good amount of game time down there that we certainly wouldn't be able to give him. Seems to have his head screwed on. All the best to him.

Anyone else being old that iPlayer and BBC Sport website won't work for "legal reasons"?

He's also essential to the lineout, particularly when Diack isn't playing. Important player and a good bit of business.

Go well big fella. I liked his willingness to counter ruck and his grunt.

I also regret not using the nickname "Rocket" for him on a more regular basis.

Lots of worthy contenders for MOTM against a really poor team. Luke Marshall for me, his running lines, pass timing and accuracy, and kicking game were all pretty much 100%. He was our major threat in the last half hour.

Great start from Leinster

Province. It implies an attachment to place and people that is particularly appreciated by the exiles such as myself.

I can understand and forgive non-natives using the term "club" though I hope they learn not to once bedded in.

For a number of years my rugby claim to fame was having dumped him in a P7 minis match. Shame he could never really get over the injuries, he was number two to Afoa in his prime. Even scored a Heineken Cup try as I recall.

He didn't have a great game yesterday, true, but he was part of a pack that knew it was second best from the start. Individually he underthrew an important 5 metre lineout. Still a great player and highly respected leader who was consistently excellent during the World Cup, and the choice of many in...

Munster have just done us a favour. No bonus point for Stade, leaving them on 14 after 5 matches.

Barnes just called back Clermont for a breakaway try and instead gave the Ospreys a penalty under the sticks to take the lead...

Think it's the latter, is he in the SDC squad anyway?

He is.

Seemingly he's been leapfrogged by Reidy and our second-best hooker
