Larmour shreds Munster with try of the season contender
By Fred Culazzo
Leinster ran out 24-34 winners against Munster at Thomond Park this afternoon, but the game will be remembered for this piece of magic from 20-year-old fullback Jordan Larmour.
Keatley kicked long and Larmour punished Munster with three sublime steps off both feet to score one of the tries of the season.
Nigel Owens can be heard gasping in awe of the young man's pace as he struggles to keep up. Owens later comments that he barely made it to the 22 in time.
Larmour has been involved in recent Irish training camps and based on this evidence, it won't be too long before he forces his way into Schmidt's squad.
His ability to step players was on show earlier this season too when he tore the Ulster defence apart with this solo effort:

It's the same criticism of Dmac and Mo'unga as well. Sadly the way the game has been heading recently it's the only way to break down a defence, and a player of Lawrences nature would have a very limited chance at doing that because he's too one dimensional.
Noah Lolesio is your sort of player and that worked OK, but only because his team is far more creative than Englands for example. The highly organized Irish attack was also another that didn't require much from the 10, but that is now changing with Prendergast who is in that league mold like the most new age 10's.
So it is in fact your two which would require even more change to make the most of than Marcus Smith.

There are tougher opponents waiting and they will be punished heavily unless the coaching improves dramatically.
