Re: Leinster vs Stormers, Friday 24/03, 19:35, TG4
Presumably those in 6N squad that got very few minutes on Saturday like Healy and Ross should be available to play?
Re: Leinster vs Stormers, Friday 24/03, 19:35, TG4
My guess is that they won't be sober enough to play.

Ross Byrne and Cian Healy should be available.
Ryan Baird has been used sparingly in the 6N.
Tadhg Furlong and Robbie Henshaw should actually look to play!!!

Jimmy O'Brien and Jordan Larmour should be good to go, I would have imagined.
Re: Leinster vs Stormers, Friday 24/03, 19:35, TG4
This is our most important match of the URC. Top of the table clash with 1st place on the line and that buys us an easy tour to SA.
It's one to go in strong with, but also one we have to be careful with sandwiched between the 6N and the Heineken Cup. An example would be Jimmy O'Brien, he has a chance for gametime at 15 but with Keenan injured we also need the cover. If Ross Byrne wants a few days to savour the moment, then he should. But if he's up for a run out I'd have him on the bench.

I don't think any of the Irish 23 from Saturday will be allowed play, but don't see any reason why JGP and Henshaw shouldn't be involved - they've barely played all season. I understand that Tadhg might be treated more cautiously.
Re: Leinster vs Stormers, Friday 24/03, 19:35, TG4
Hoping that we'll be hearing some positive news on Tommy O'Brien in today's injury update
Look out Itchy, he's Irish

Looks like the Stormer are coming fully loaded, but strangely still resigned to only be hopeful for a losing BP.

Tommy O'Brien and Ed Byrne back in full training.
Ringrose & Keenan both following return to play protocols.
Osborne suffered knee ligament injury against Edinburgh, out for " a number of weeks".
Sexton having scan today on groin injury.
No update on Moloney, Ngatai, Kelleher, McCarthy and Foley.

Probabl t the end of the season for Osborne. If he doesn't make the SA tour he'll hardly be thrown back in to the knockouts short of an injury crisis.cormac wrote: ↑March 20th, 2023, 2:00 pm Tommy O'Brien and Ed Byrne back in full training.

Ruddock's tackle stats consistently too low for me to be taken seriously as a Six Nations blindside..... Ruddock's defensive stats don't stack up. - All Blacks Nil, Jan 15th, 2014
England A 8 - 14 Ireland A, 25th Jan 2014
Ruddock(c) 19/2 Tackles

It's just over 3 weeks until that tour, he has time.

If Ed Byrne is available, I think we'll play him to start or off the bench with Cian to start We'll need one of them against Ulster and hopefully the following week. Ed has missed so much if he doesn't get in now the SA tour games might be his only rugby before season end.
I'm still hopeful N'gatai will make Ulster game. Personally, I'd like to see Jimmy O'B get a run with Larmour & James Lowe before Ulster game.

Lowe has played every minute of the 6N, he won't be involved this weekend.

Which means we'll need Healy as backup TH to M.Al
Mirror, Mirror on the Wall who's the greatest player of them all? It is Drico your majesty.

Bookies have this as a 10 point game in Leinster's favour.

It doesn't look right to me, but the bookies are more often right than wrong. It will be interesting to see how this changes when the teams are announced.
