Yeah, for Tremenjus to deign to give him MOTM today shows what a great game he had. Fantastic offload for Toner's try.

Delighted for him. He had a few poor performances earlier in the season but has been brilliant of late. 95% of the criticism directed at him over the last 5 years has been utter bogus driven by a Munster-dominated media.

made the most tackles and metres gained of any Irish forward going by the official stats

Would you mind explaining to the good people out there:- How exactly did Jamie gain all those metres.
Would agree that zinc galvanised rods can have that effect.

The thread should probably have stopped after the first post as I am not sure there is anything to add.

By getting a decent run against Italy (15 runs for 37 metres). He actually went backwards v. France (5 carries for 2 metres!)
