They're nowhere near it.

And you'd expect them to get better, but is the game plan there?

Does it suit the players?

Prendergast confidence, Harry Byrne has been out recently.

Who starts 10?

to Edinburgh games so Gibson Park obviously nailed on who starts 10 Harry Byrne I think at this stage yeah Harry Byrne I think as well Osborne 12 Ringrose 13 Ciarán Frawley should be in that conversation he's playing really well not necessarily a 10 but he's in form and you know I think he probably gets the 22 jersey oh you're jumping ahead Rudd sorry we're jumping ahead Osborne Ringrose 13

Yeah, Henshaw's not playing great at the moment.

I'm not prepared to write off Robbie Henshaw.

I think there's too much...

There's too much of a good player in there.

And look, his body's been battered by injury over the years.

But I wouldn't... I think he needs to start playing better if he wants to be in the conversation.

But there's enough games there for him to do it.

And he's surely... If you see Bundy Aki responding to Stuart McCluskey's performances for Ireland, then there should be a fire lit under Henshaw who doesn't...

Yeah, no, I think his body's been through an awful lot and he's not playing well, but I do think that there's life in him yet.

There's another surge to come at some stage, whether it's this year or not, I don't know.

At this stage, I'd probably go Osborne because Keenan comes in a fullback and I think you have to get Osborne into your team somewhere because he's playing so well.

And I...

From an Ireland point of view, and I know this is a lesser conversation, I don't think Rico Ioane should be starting ahead of Jamie Osborne at this stage of Jamie Osborne's career.

Well, he can start ahead of Ringrose.
