is that I think Sam Prendergast is in pole position to start at out half.

Bundee's ban | Keenan's injury | Portugal check-in

I have a feeling that Edwin Adogbo is going to be involved.

Indo Sport
Bundee's ban | Keenan's injury | Portugal check-in

I would say most likely off the bench.

Indo Sport
Bundee's ban | Keenan's injury | Portugal check-in

I think the makeup of the bench is going to be quite interesting.

Indo Sport
Bundee's ban | Keenan's injury | Portugal check-in

Whether Ireland, excuse me, go for a 6-2.

Indo Sport
Bundee's ban | Keenan's injury | Portugal check-in

I know you said you weren't expecting Bundy to be involved, but I think if he had not been suspended, there was a good chance he might have been wearing number 23 because we know Andy Farrell likes to go for a big centre.

But with Henshaw injured,

Indo Sport

with Aki suspended, with McCloskey and Ringrose likely to start, I wonder if Ireland will be tempted to go for a 6-2 bench and you could have guys like Adogbo, like Jack Conan, potentially a Nick Timoney or a Kian Prendergast to come off the bench because France could go with a 6-2 as well.

Bundee's ban | Keenan's injury | Portugal check-in

I think otherwise, yeah, the team pretty much picks itself.

Doris, Van der Vleer, Tyke Byrne in the back row.

Indo Sport
Bundee's ban | Keenan's injury | Portugal check-in

I know there's been a few calls maybe to pair Edwin Adogbo and Joe McCarthy in the second row together to go with that power punch, but

Indo Sport
Bundee's ban | Keenan's injury | Portugal check-in

I'm not quite sure, a bit like I kind of said, the balance of the French team.

Indo Sport
Bundee's ban | Keenan's injury | Portugal check-in

I'm not quite sure that that would be the right balance.

Indo Sport
Bundee's ban | Keenan's injury | Portugal check-in

And I think, you know, we've talked about the scrum, but the Irish line-out has also been under huge pressure.

Indo Sport
Bundee's ban | Keenan's injury | Portugal check-in

And I think the line-out would really suffer if you didn't have a natural jumper like a James Ryan in that second row.

Indo Sport
Bundee's ban | Keenan's injury | Portugal check-in

But I think Adogbo could be primed, Will, for a big, big impact in Paris.

Indo Sport
Bundee's ban | Keenan's injury | Portugal check-in

I mean, you look at how well he's played for Munster, particularly in those Champions Cup games against...

Indo Sport
Bundee's ban | Keenan's injury | Portugal check-in

Toulon and Kass, look at the impact that he made off the bench in 20 minutes by scoring the two tries.

Indo Sport
Bundee's ban | Keenan's injury | Portugal check-in

I'm very, very excited.

Indo Sport
Bundee's ban | Keenan's injury | Portugal check-in

It feels like it's been a long time coming for him.
