🗣 “At international level it’s hard to be a 9 & 10. You get far less time than you do at club, especially at Leinster and Munster.”

Defensively absent. Huge questions remain
Time on the ball is all thats needed. Analysing them on one (almost) full game is useless. Byrne has it in him to be a fantastic 10, he just needs time and thats really it. He's confident, has the skills and looks to be a leader. The guy is great and experience tends to bring people like him to the next level once he learns to keep adapting.
Thought Byrne was excellent everyone says irelands attack was great and that stems from your 10. He had everything organised, brought the ball to the line and solid enough in defence, kicking was off but it usually isntop drawer.
Criticism of Casey was at times he needed less speed more thought
