There have been some players who some of us have been deserving of a cap ( or at least a call up to the squad ), now and in the past. Let us know who you think should've been or should be capped ( for Ireland ).

For me, Jason Gavin would be one though I don't think he is as good now as he was in the past. I'd say Jason Byrne but he has got a few caps ( all bar one were token caps though ). Colin Hawkins is an excellent player and should be in the squads.

Willie John Boland has been a steady performer for years without getting a full cap ever. He made a Premiership debut back in 1993 as a 17-year-old with Coventry, and played for them for years before putting in a good stint at Cardiff. I think he is still knocking around the lower leagues even now. A lot of worse players picked up a couple of caps in the meantime ...

Did Stephen Geoghan (i'm pretty sure i've spelt that wrong) ever win a cap? If not he's a contender. Sean Thornton maybe. Its a difficult one actually, it's hard to think of any half decent one around at the moment without a cap, and think of some of the rubbish who've got them in the past. That means you, Paul Butler

In the past Jackie Jameson.

Now Owen Heary (we've always loads of full backs though) andon quality alone John O'Flynn (if Kevin Doyle, Glen Crowe and Jay Byrne are good enough...)

Heary, Devine, O'Donovan -all good players

Stuart Byrne -Workhorse ( we've got loads of this type of players already, in case you didn't notice! )

Ollie Cahill -You've GOT to be joking! Final ball anyone? Puts the head down and runs.
