A timely comeback for Leinster’s Joe McCarthy after frustrating injury via IrishTimesSport
But the 22-year-old is a level-headed sort.
Not so long ago he was playing with Dublin University and there is still the look of a raw-boned teenager about him. But Leinster like what they see and with two or three games remaining, there is a summer ahead which could shape McCarthy’s career.“I suppose you can take a positive out of it [injury] maybe. You get a bit of rest,” he says. “But I just want to play as much as possible to be honest. I feel like I’ve a lot of areas to improve and want to play all the time.
McCarthy also has the ear of coach Leo Cullen, who also played in the secondrow and the experience of Seán O’Brien, not so long retired, for contact training.
