"Furlong and Kyle Sinckler, I mean they were 1 and 2 for the Lions, weren't they? You've got to stick with Furlong but you're having the debate... you can't just dismiss it off-hand."
TONER/HENDERSON vs. MARO ITOJE
"James Ryan has to start and [with him]... it's so difficult. I can't envisage going into a game without Maro Itoje. I'm gutted to leave out Joe Launchbury but Maro gets in."No mention of Devin Toner or Iain Henderson here. CJ STANDER vs. BILLY VUNIPOLA
"If Billy has 8 months getting fit [ahead of the World Cup], then you'd pick Billy. Right now, in Dublin, I'd rather have CJ Stander."
JOHNNY SEXTON vs. OWEN FARRELL
"I would have a debate about Sexton, Farrell but I understand that I would lose that debate... I think I would come down with Sexton myself."
AKI/HENSHAW vs. BEN TE'O
"I think you could get an Englishman in there at the moment, Ben Te'o... Well, Henshaw hasn't played [since November]."
KEITH EARLS vs. JONNY MAY
"Maybe you'd get Jonny May in there ahead of Earls, because of his try-scoring record; his ratio."Greenwood has a point here - May has 18 tries in 40 Tests [45% scoring ratio] while Earls has 27 in 72 [37.5%].
12 Irish players end up making the 'Best XV'. Pretty remarkable stuff.
Not a bad team, in fairness.
