Writing in the Irish Independent, Tony Ward reflects on the start of the new Magners League season.
"Competition for Declan Kidney's back three going into the November series will be hotting up in the coming weeks but with the versatile Fionn Carr taking up where he finished off last May, there's no reason why he should not be in the frame for selection in the autumn internationals. He's in there alongside Ian Dowling and Johne Murphy banging on the door.
"Granted, Kidney is spoilt for choice, with Rob Kearney, Tommy Bowe, Luke Fitzgerald and, when back to full fitness, Keith Earls and Andrew Trimble all pushing for that call, but when such obvious potential is being matched by consistency in form, the case for Carr will surely be there."
