Heaslip should have been capped by Leinster much sooner and when he was he was instantly brilliant.

Them's the facts.

Where he and Leamy fit for Ireland is a different question.

Re: "The French should be ashamed of their terrible food"

France in general seems to be in a massive decline. Most of its provincial towns/cities seem worse than they were a generation ago.

The difference in the towns when you cross the Pyrenean border from Spain to France is marked and not flattering.
