    Considering that racing lost the game it might be harder to negotiate such “agreements” in the future.

    The omission of Casey looks like a real oversight if best isn’t available. Consistent ball from set pieces will be crucial if we are to stand a chance against SA. Casey hasn’t been tested at international level, which of course Cronin ans Strauss have been, but he’s been the form 2 in the country since the start of the season. His interaction with 2 of Ireland’s nailed on starters (poc and pj) would go a long way to getting fast ball from the lineout. Obviously a hookers job isn’t just darts, but a return rate of less than 90% here will crucify us against SA.

    Best isn’t a great darts man, but he’s worth a penalty or 2 and scrums are always solid. I think Casey’s lineout consistency is a good substitute for this, with Cronin or strauss making an abrasive carrying impact from the bench in the end game.

    I’d like to have seen Casey get a run-out, but against Georgia…

    South Africa are one of the top two teams in the world, possibly the best. They almost certainly have the best pack in the world.

    If at all avoidable, it’s not a match where I’d be giving a forward player a debut.

    True, but they don’t come much more grizzly than Georgia, none of us have forgotten 2007. If you’re going to ease someone in, it may as well be against Australia!

    Racing pay his bills, so I’d say they have first dibs on his services, and rightly so.
