And just like that Stampkar is dropped...

The Irish team for Wales: Ireland – 15 Will Addison, 14 Andrew Conway, 13 Chris Farrell, 12 Bundee Aki, 11 Jacob Stockdale, 10 Jack Carty, 9 Kieran Marmion, 8 Jack Conan, 7 Peter O’Mahony, 6 Tadhg Beirne, 5 James Ryan, 4 Iain Henderson, 3 John Ryan, 2 Niall Scannell, 1 Dave Kilcoyne. Subs: 16 Rory Best, 17 Andrew Porter, 18 Tadhg Furlong, 19 Devin Toner, 20 Jordi Murphy, 21 Luke McGrath, 22 Garry Ringrose, 23 Dave Kearney. ........... No doubt he will be in the WC squad, but there have to be some doubts about him starting. The huge focus on process tackling and number of runs, when those runs are toothless and just guarantee slow ball, was always misplaced. A media creation. I'm surprised there are so many changes though, it looks a little desperate and a little punitive.......it doesn't look like a happy group.

No he has not been dropped it’s a WC warm up match seeing loads of players who started against England not starting this one. Moz stop clutching Your truth vs reality at play here again

Nah Dave, I thought that would be your response. It's not just a warm up game.. Another humiliation would be devastating for Schmidt.....if he really thought Stamp was going to make a big difference, he'd be playing or on the bench.
