Obviously, the scrum was an issue, especially when Tom O'Toole had to come back on and Daniela Tupou kind of had a good run of them in that scrum.
So another new loose head in the Irish team.
There's enough intrigue here in this Japan game this week.
Mentioned Lachlan there.
Obviously, he stood down because of his head knock.
Balacoon sounds like he will be OK.
Hamstring, is that the word from camp?
There's no secret about it.
I mean, I think I've probably said this a few times in this podcast, but November 22...
Farrell picks him to start on the right wing against the Springboks.
They won that game.
He was a bit quiet, but Farrell has always been a good judge of a player.
He obviously wasn't being used in the way that he would have liked up at Ulster.
So he gets that cap, injuries and form seems to fall away.
Mark Sexton goes into that Ulster attack and Balakun after the Montpellier game at the press conference, he explicitly said, yeah, Mark Sexton told me I need to come in off my wing more.
I need to get more involved.
Basically, I imagine the conversation went something along the lines of you're six foot four and the fastest bloke in the country.
You need to get on the ball more.
And obviously, as we know, Farrell likes his messy wingers in inverted commas with the Lowe's and the Hanson's of the world.
So if you've got somebody who doesn't need to touch the ball as often as a James Lowe or a Matt Hanson, but given his pace and his size, if he gets two thirds of the number of touches, he'll find a gap.
