You've listed out a couple of names of people.
matched
It could be there.

put your money on it now and we can clip this out in 12 months when Ireland are going to the World Cup who is going to be the disruptor over this season over the second half of the Nations Championship or into the Six Nations who's going to be the bolter the person that comes along and just says feck it with this I'm going to be the man over this season someone that we haven't really thought about too much who's just going to come in and plant their flag on this team
matched
And look, if you get it wrong, we're never going to talk about this again.
matched
But if you get this right, we're going to clip this out and stick it out again next year and say Johnny Holland was right.
matched
I think... I think Bryn Ward feels like the most likely to just really have a big impact there.
matched
I know you'd have to be disrupting... He's not going to disrupt Caelan Dars out of eight, but...
matched
you know could he play seven I'm not really like it's trying to figure out where the where the spot is from I think it could be one of Bryn Ward or Sean Jansen just if you think about the the physical aspects they have and the the explosive ball carrying and and just that little bit of excitement and punch that they can actually put onto a game um if I was going gun to my head I feel like that might be the most the most logical way to to try predict it
matched
Because as you say, you look across the back line and you're trying to figure out who are the players that aren't in there at the moment who could make a huge impact.
matched
And it's difficult to pick out someone that wasn't in that squad this summer or someone that was injured and missed out that could really, really make a massive impact.
matched
So you're looking at what's there.
matched
Yeah, I think maybe Bryn Ward or Sean Janssen.
matched
Oh, completely.
matched
Yeah.
matched
I wouldn't have named him just because he was, I feel like he's very much part of that team now.
matched
Yeah, and just even as I think you mentioned him earlier on as well, like Paddy McCarthy potentially.
matched
There have been these sniffles over the last year or so that they might want to move Andrew Porter back across to tight end.
matched
And obviously if they do that, it leaves a big gap at least.
matched
I know Tom Matula has fitted in brilliantly this season.
matched
But what we saw from Paddy McCarthy in the first half of the season, there was a lot of promise there.
