The Ireland centre breaks down the intricacies of defending out wide.
THE OPENING MINUTES of Leinster’s clash with Bath two weekends ago were humbling for Garry Ringrose , according to the man himself.
“I’m glad it happened early in the game anyway,” said Ringrose. “It was like, ‘Right, we’re in it now’, and it was good fun.”“Well, I think I’d maybe reset wider a bit quicker, trust Robbie ‘s ability to get off, and then I remember looking over my shoulder at Sam in the backfield behind me and I’d be conscious of who he thinks he’s maybe marking or covering.
Advertisement To be fair to Ringrose, he had lots of excellent moments on the wing against Bath as he grew into the game. In attack, there are plenty of overlaps given that Leinster and Ireland’s wings are encouraged to roam around the pitch rather than just hanging out wide. If Ireland want to use him on the wing in this Six Nations, Ringrose is ready. But his biggest impacts in green have come in the number 13 shirt.The Dublin man turned 30 yesterday, keeping celebrations low-key in Portugal as he ventured out for lunch and coffee with James Ryan and Jamison Gibson-Park.
