Only 5 players selected from the form team in europe. Joe is doing himself no favours.

You clearly have not understood the depths of loathing I hold towards your FIRFU. I am a very obstinate man, this is not a whim, this is for life.

And by the way, I hate kittens, drowning in a beg is all they’re good for, I’d encourage my dogs to devour kittens. Purr off or I’ll let the bag out of the cat. :D
NEVER MOVE ON. Years on, I cannot ever watch Ireland with anything but indifference, I continue to wish for the imminent death of Donal Spring, the FIRFUC's executioner of Wee Paddy & Wee Stu, and I hate the FIRFUCs with undiminished passion.

Cats are a wonderful species. They thrive on every continent. Dogs are ok. Some I like. Some alleged dog lovers would rather spend hundreds on an overbred walking vet bill than get a free one that is about to be put down. Many dogbreeders are scumbags. Up there with solicitors and sorriewankers.

If Ireland don't win the slam then Joe will have to consider his position. Easily the best pack.

That's one way of putting it. I can think of others but I'm far too polite to say them. :D

There are 2 issues with this data

1. Laidlaw has been injured. It says a lot for the Top 14 that he's played so many minutes
2. This doesn't include minutes in Europe - under representing the Irish players mainly

Henderson has played the most minutes of any irish lion. Payne has played the least.

Leek Munchers have a bit of an out half problem. Both Priestland and Biggar injured. Having said that Ireland are only a hamstring concussion away from a similar problem.

Lots on the list have been injured, maybe those who haven't been, are more likely to pick up injuries as a result of having played a lot.

Without seeing the stats on euro comps I'd guess it would add a similar number of minutes into most of the players listed, assuming you include both competitions.

“There was some wayward passing, some turnovers that he’d look back at and be frustrated with himself. It’s crucial at the time of selection that we know guys are in good form.

“There’s a bit of time during the Six Nations with the PRO14 games that he can still strike a claim.”
