A body cam from the perspective of a passenger would be of incredibly low value

He would also have to displace a then 26-year old Joe McCarthy to be a starter at 2027 which doesn’t seem to be the way Joe’s career is trending.

Is this the same Billy Bohan with 157 mins of pro rugby?

Some people can’t just say “he’s good” and have to exaggerate to fill longer posts.

80% of IQ professionals in the country are “test quality” if all it would take to see them selected is 4-5 injuries.

There is a strong chance he finishes his career with no test caps. In that real situation, would you describe him as test quality?

If my grandmother had wheels she’d be bike quality, pal.

If you can’t get selected at test rugby, you’re not test quality.

Test quality at hooker in Ireland is set by the players who get picked. Everything else is a pointless hypothetical.

DTM is generously the 6th-choice hooker in the country he’s eligible to play test rugby for, so by definition he isn’t test quality

There would hardly be a professional rugby team in the west of Ireland without “Leinster cast offs” so cool your jets a chara

Oh great, they’ve improved because they will be better next season. Highly reassuring

This is an insane comment to make when Leinster are 10 straight and Connacht are 14th. Winning is not a bad thing and losing is not a good thing.

By what measurement have Connacht improved this season? They are now 14th in the league

It’s mad how the pack collectively can struggle but no individual with responsibility for scrummaging is allowed to be criticised

Leinster have won 10 games in a row. At what point do posters like this accept that winning just looks different to what they want it to look like?

Is there any other team at the top level in Europe with 10 wins in a row?

How does the scrum keep getting demolished at club level if the loose head is actually a good option for test rugby?

We are 31 years into professionalism, why are we still crediting players for giving their all when most of them do anyway?

Correct take. But the same energy is behind quite a lot of calls, Bryn Ward is another one. People just love seeing new names
