  1. Maybe its just me but i personally think D'Arcy is way over rated?
    He has only scored 20points for Ireland where as somebody such as Trimble who has played half the games has scored double the points(an excuse maybe that he is a winger)but even David Wallace who has played a few more games than him has scored nearly double the amount of tries even jerry flannery has scored 15 points, maybe this is just me but i would expect my centre to score alot more tires than D'Arcy does. It isnt asthough he has a large impact on any games or that he is a good kicker.
    Let me know what you think?

    he did play well a few years ago 2004 I believe it was. yes I would give him a rest if he does not get it together for Leinster. interesting to see what Leinster will do now. with Horgan in the centre, there is not room for both Darcy and BOD beside him. BOD to fullback could be interesting. combine defensive and attcaking qualities in one player instead of choosing one skillsetover the other - I'd like to see Ireland try Horgan and Trimble in the centre - they are afterall centres. accepting that in all likelihood we will pick one of them on the wing, I sure hope we find a real winger to replace Hickie.
