Additionally that team is not far removed from what we had out against France, so no, I do not consider it as wholesale changes.
I mean, besides the fact you're missing four key starters, a former Lions captain and a guy who would probably be starting on the wing?
And replacing them with guys with probably less than 10 caps between all of them? Ah right.

I am not trying to claim that we would win this tournament, just starting that my opinion is that we should look at this as a development tournament.
For the third time now, you can use it as a development tournament while still interspersing the team with guys who give you the right balance of experience. It's not one or the other.

It is ok if we don’t agree with one another, but it would be foolish, and a waste of time to keep dancing this dance.
Yeah I agree on that. I've sort of given you the benefit of the doubt on her for quite a while, but you seem to like making a point, not really giving much evidence to back it up when challenged and then just giving the same strawman over and over!
You've also totally contradicted yourself literally in the last few pages of this thread.
Ah come on bud, same straw man over and over? Please don’t act like this. If you don’t want to engage with me then feel free to ignore.
I have not contradicted myself at all. You are comparing apples and oranges here. Munster went into a game with probably 3 first choice players, a few squad players and a good number of inexperienced players, this is nothing like that.
I have given my point repeatedly, that I believe that we should make a small number of changes for this Mickey Mouse tournament, and I believe the changes I have suggested is a small number.
The core group are still in place to bring these players on.
2/3 of the front row, 2/2 of the second row, 2/3 of the backrow, The half back pairing will have 2/3 of the first choice back row from the 6 nation’s in front of them, and the first choice available centre pairing outside them, both with lots of experience.
For me this is a very small number of changes. To you not so much, which is fine.
You have just repeatedly said that my opinion is wrong without actually saying anything, I have attempted to politely as possible end this circular discussion a number of times, as I do not think you are willing to enter a discussion, but I did not want to get personal and say that, so don’t be so patronising saying that you are giving me the benefit of the doubt.
If you have an alternative opinion, by all means express it, but please don’t act like this. If you think you are of such a stature that you feel I need the benefit of the doubt, then please just stop engaging.
Just because a post upsets you, that doesn’t mean that it is wrong. People have different views in all aspects of life, this is a key ingredient to an interesting conversation.
