The Ireland lock is fast cementing his place as a Test starter and must be on the shortlist for the Lions captaincy. O'Connell was instrumental in Ireland winning all 13 of their line-outs and stealing four of Scotland's at Murrayfield. "He has been a model of consistency," said ex-Ireland skipper Keith Wood. "He has won a huge amount of line-out ball, he is a big, brawling type of second row, all sinew. He's not making mistakes and his standard is going up and up." VERDICT: Window or aisle seat Mr O'Connell? Or should I say Captain O'Connell, sir?  The BBC is not responsible for the content of external internet sites |
