I agree with GtC: the 2 Irish lads will be good enough to play if they are uninjured. They add pace to our midfield, and neither takes any crap. They may allow us to move Zac Tuohy into the midfield.
I must admit that I don't take much notice of the 'best 22': not only is it very early, but none of the scribes really know how the players are rated internally. Nor will we until it gets a LOT closer to the real season, in all probability. However, last year Byrne played all the preseason and would have started but for injury. He did well in his only game until he was hurt. Sheehan more than held his place at the end of 2014.
I expect the youngsters to get games and I wouldn't be surprised if one of them play a LOT of games, but to place a kid in our best a this point is pushing it.
