La liste des Bleues à 7 pour Dubaï

The midfield needs a refresh. Reiko still instinctively plays like a wing, it's costing us key moments on attack, needs to return to the wing. Midfield is highly up for grabs next season, imo. A backfield of Clarke, Reiko, Jordan, looks excitingly menacing.

I didn't care about the ABs performance v ITA tbh. I expected a 20pt win, & mostly got it. The game played out as expected. Wet, slippery, zero degrees, a smaller soccer field, a fired up Azzurri who'd had a great 6N 2024, immense home crowd, sheesh, some of the score predictions were nuts. I'm glad Razor stayed with the tried & true & didn't put up a "B" team. Take the win, come home.

Nick Bishop is going to have trouble digesting this.

Interestingly, though, in an article written about their match in April this year (which Leinster won) Wiese received special mention:

Leicester's eigthman was present from the beginning to the end and locked in at all break down points. With the most carries in the game (18) Wiese gained 53 metres along with one line break and 3 passes. 

Google SAFFER BRUISES BULLDOZE IRSIH NO.8 - and you'll find that Doris has regularly been outplayed by South African players I would pick ahead of Doris 9 days out of 10.

And as captain of Ireland he has overseen the worst year of performances in 6 years.

Surprised at some of the "dream team", who would not get into a Red Roses squad.
