One wonders if a deal has already been done - Ross Byrne was also linked with a move away from Leinster - but the PRO14 champions will surely not allow the young star to leave. Earlier this season, our Jack O'Toole asked 'why have a Rolls Royce only to keep it in the garage' in reference to Carbery being kept on the bench far too often this season. It was a valid question but when you have Sexton and Rob Kearney in rude form and health, there is no harm in cracking out the Roller to pop to the local shops every now and then. His time, like Beauden Barrett's for New Zealand, will come.
