I did say big games😂…. But don’t take my word for it, he’s behind Caelan Doris, Jack Conan, Cian Prendergast and Max Deegan for Ireland

He’s a solid URC player but not international standard and goes missing in the big games. Gleasons ceiling is much higher and he should be backed now. It’s similar to the prendergast&Byrne situation at Leinster. Byrne isn’t good enough and prendergast is been given his chance now to help develop him

Gleason is one of the best prospects we have at 8…. He needs a run of games there in EC and URC games. Use Coombes from the bench as he might be more impactful IMO

I know, it’s criminal that a well run successful club, who regularly make the final rounds of European cup and URC with 20+ homegrown players in their match day squad, spend some money they earned to attract top players to develop the game in Leinster…. The game is gone

I think Byrnes career has stagnated. France would be a good move for him. I actually John Cooney is the one that Ireland has let get away. One of the best scrum halves we’ve produced and for some reason he’s been neglected at international level.

I think it’s a great move. Better to learn about his big game temperament now rather than against France

Would have liked another option than Murray tried off the bench. Feel sorry for Nick Timoney but otherwise a good mix
