Two and a half hours to go

Can you imagine how good a number 8 you would have if you could produce a player that could combine all the "seen" work that Stander does with all Heaslip's "unseen" work.

I'm loving this morphing idea, can we get a centre who can run like Earls, pass like Reid and run a defence like Payne, we'd be unstoppable.

NOTE: however given Ma Nonu's display in the final we may need to go through Steve Hansen to lease the technology

how about a Cian Healy that plays like Cian Healy from 3 years ago ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh

Cmon AB0, any more player morphs for us?

How about a winger who can run like Denis Hickie, field a ball like Rob Kearney, offload in the tackle like SBW and can run s line like Tommy Bowe?

If Stander can eventually emulate Jamie's fabled "unseen work", his clearly superior "seen work" would surely see him become first choice number eight.

[Dave Cahill]

He is unquestionably one of the best South Africans called CJ to play in Ireland.

[All Blacks nil]

Perhaps if Joe gives CJ the list of "unseen tasks" which Jamie performs, they could be his "workons' that will improve him as a player.

If anyone can identify various aspects of this unseen work maybe we could compile a list so CJ can get a head start in his homework

I'm afraid in Joe's world it would be a case of Sonny Bill who.
Eyes down young man and recycle.

[Dave Cahill]

I think thats a great idea.

I'd imagine Joe would want him to work on and in the areas highlighted in blue

Ignorance (of facts) can be such sweet bliss.

It is with great sadness I have to say that the above only goes for what he has available here, i demand you break out the morphing machine and create the genetic freaks Joe needs to bring us to the top table.

If only Jamie had something from his 85 international caps that PJ Stander doesnt...
but lads, we know Stander is getting MoM against Treviso this weekend and lets not mention the ten man rugby that won Leinster those back to back H cups under Joe

lighthearted joshing aside, I think Stander has 12-18 months to go before he potentially overtakes Heaslip for Ireland
we could be looking at a very projecty Ireland squad in a year or two, and we've gone past quaint ideas of Ah You and Diack getting serious caps

2015 Strauss, Payne, Stander
2016 Heenan
2017 Herbst, McCartney, Aki, Te'o, TB (well Jan 2018)

Am discounting White, Ludik, Ah You, Diack and Roux

hes doing himself no favours now
