Rugby jury: Who should be captain, who should be rested and what actual value is there in Ireland’s summer tour?
@Source: independent.ie
1 – With so many players and coaches away with the Lions, what value do you place on Ireland’s summer tour of Georgia and Portugal?
Rúaidhrí O’Connor: The decision to leave Paul O’Connell in sole charge with a support team drawn from the provinces diminishes the prestige, but this is a crucial window to freshen up a team that have lost momentum in the past year. As the Lions perform in Australia, the depth of Irish rugby will be tested and hopefully a handful of players can step up.
