Ireland Vs England

better balance in back row. JvdF has been superb. Heaslip gets stick but what he brings is always underrated (a bit like Jarrod Payne), he is a superb all-round player and he had a better game than CJ last week. Stander to come-off bench for JH and make big impact. There is so little to choose between our back-row there is no reason that they can't rotate Heaslip, Stander, O'Brien, POM, JvdF .. and even Henderson (at 6 he is more dynamic in loose and allows Ryan as better line-out option) Ringrose done nothing wrong, but Mccluskey breaks the line and offloads better than anyone else and would be great to see him & Henshaw given a few games together. Also take a little pressure off Ringrose. Agree with SportJoe, Rob Kearney needs a better game to resist option of Zebo to 15 when Trimble is back. ..but is Zebo as fit as he should be?? so maybe time to give O'Halloran a run.
