Sorry, just quickly.

Do you agree with Darius's pick of Foley at 10?

Yeah.

Yeah, I think you have to.

I think you can't keep bringing him on tours and not play him in that position.

I think he has to get a game.

I think you have to be fair to him.

Now, Andy Farrell might decide that Ciarán Foley is going to play 10 for Connacht next season and he'll get a proper look at him with a proper run in games.

And it's tough on Ciarán as well because...

he will be asked to come in with minimal game time in the 10 jersey.

And if you are going to give him a start against Australia, then you're throwing him in a little bit at the deep end in terms of muscle memory, recent matches, all that sort of stuff, playing in the 10 jersey.

So playing in any jersey, in fairness, over the last few weeks of the season with Leinster.

So yeah, it would be a gamble, but

Like I say, I'm not fixated on Ireland winning the Nations Championship.

So if it's something that needs to be done, then do it.

Yeah, I think, yeah, I agree.

I think Cian Prendergast there, ironically, I'd say Max Deegan will be very disappointed that his

Tour de Force in terms of performances came a little bit late for him to be considered.

I think if he had got the opportunity, I mean, if you look at the form player in a six jersey in Irish rugby, it's him.

And he kept, you know, whereas before they would have gone with Caelan, Caelan Doris at six.
