Heaslip is a guy that can't be criticized here and is over criticized elsewhere
I think Heaslip had up and down performances for a couple of years, more up obviously but there were poor performances in there
He reacted particularly well when Stander came into the team as his first real opposition in years and has been excellent for the last year or so coming up to the 6 Nations
Himself and Stander have been the best of the starting backrows for us in the last 4 games
We have two excellent options at 8 that I believe that we should choose between because I think we are better served with POM at 6 first and foremost. If you are choosing either Stander or Heaslip then I don't think its a straight forward decision
Having Stander or Heaslip at 8 is the least of our worries atm
That's my thoughts on Heaslip as expressed through this forum - not sure where the trolling is
The bold bit is actually the important bit - I'm sure plenty won't agree with that, which is fine
