    Eight players have been added to the Irish squad of 22 that played against South Africa.
    Forwards (4): Simon Best (Ulster – Belfast Harlequins), Leo Cullen (Leinster – Blackrock College), Denis Leamy (Munster – Cork Constitution), Aidan McCullen (Leinster – Lansdowne).
    Backs (4): Tommy Bowe (Ulster – Belfast Harlequins), Gavin Duffy (NEC Harlequins), Anthony Horgan (Munster – Cork Constitution), Shaun Payne (Munster – Dolphin).

    Would have to say change the whole pack and backs and blood as many players as possible.

    My 15
    1.Horan
    2.Sheahan
    3.Best
    4.Cullen
    5.O'Callaghan
    6.Leamy
    7.O'Connor
    8.Miller
    9.O'Meara
    10. ?(Humphs gettin on and tried and tested i.e no point we know hes good)
    11.A.Horgan
    12.Maggs
    13.Bowe/S.Horgan
    14.Bowe/S.Horgan
    15.Duffy

    Think the whole pack would be sold as a rock,Love to see that back row roaming the pitch.What a tackle count id say(no.9 not easterby)No.10
    need a bk up-god forbid anything happen to O'Gara or Humph.Perfect time.

    Dear God, hi.

    An Irish team with an Ulster player in it. Or two, to be exact.

    Deja vu all over again
