Far too lighyweight and slow. We need a 6 with a running game outside Walsh. O Brien is not our man IMO.
He doesnt look slow to me and as for lightweight he is a halfback not a prop . There is an obsession in the modern game that every player should be built like a tank, there's more than one way to score tries as we have proved over the years - barging over the top of people is just the most obvious and blunt way. Having players with footwork and craft is what we need at club and international level. Percival is not the biggest but he has outstanding footwork as has Lomax
