Start your day with five eye-catching egg-chasing quotes & links from around the ruggersphere.

Big weekend ahead for us at Harpin Manor
Details to follow


"It's a different training week when you're on the bench. You don't get as many training reps, it's more of a kind of mental game trying to prep yourself for coming on."


Anthony Pyne - RTÉ Rugby

“It’s incredible to get up from cramp, have a little stretch and then go and do that, but 45 metres is well within Johnny’s range, especially when he hits them well”


Brendan O'Brien - Irish Examiner

A powerful No 8, the 19-year-old was one of Ireland's stand-out performers in Bordeaux and will be central to their hopes of bouncing back at home to Italy on Friday night.


Cian Tracey - Irish Independent

"He'd do a great job as Lions coach. Three-nil would be expected. It's probably the easiest of the three tours, isn't it?''


Steve Douglas - Stuff.co.nz

"He’s in good form, he’s on track. There is no real update on his situation. On track is a good thing."
