Duggan a solid prop, Sullivan might make an impact on the wing.
Re: Leinster Academy 19/20
This is the best way to distribute Leinster players.

Re: Leinster Academy 19/20

Re: Leinster Academy 19/20
Very surprised that Mark Hernan didn’t get it
Re: Leinster Academy 19/20
There are four opensides in the senior squad, the oldest of whom has just gone 27: VDF born 1993, Leavy born 1994, Connors born 1996, Penny born 1999. Martin Moloney [b.1999] was taken into the academy last year. It's our position of lowest need from 1-15.Pilotman123 wrote:Very surprised that Mark Hernan didn’t get it

Re: Leinster Academy 19/20
If they are only taking in three players and he hasn't gone elsewhere, it's more than likely he along with several others will be attempting to earn an academy place this summer.
Re: Leinster Academy 19/20
I thought Joe McCarthy would get in now. He looks a big talent.

Nothing has been announced, he could quite easily be included.dropkick wrote:I thought Joe McCarthy would get in now. He looks a big talent.
As he was only U19 this season, it wouldn't have been a huge surprise if he had to do another year in the sub, especially given his relative late coming to top level underage rugby.
