Henderson is Ulster’s sole representative as Ireland take on New Zealand at the Stade de France in Paris on Saturday night
Ireland are 8/11 favourites to beat the All Blacks in a Rugby World Cup quarter-final on Saturday night. It's a place we never thought we would be.
“This team has been put in difficult positions before when they had to come up with the solution, they’ve had to come up with the result,” says Henderson. Hooker Dane Coles is a fine dartsman and he targets lighthouse’s to begin with. Seconds-rows Brodie Retallick , Scott Barratt and the incredibly high-leaping no8 Ardie Savea are the primary catchers.
In this the Ulster captain cuts an unusual figure within an Ireland team monopolised by Leinster players. “Being an anomaly, was it, that I’m from Ulster, that’s kind of irrelevant at the minute when we’re this deep in. “Everyone knows when you’re training with Johnny he expects unbelievable standards of himself, he expects it of everyone else.
Sexton leads the way with 16 RWC appearances to Henderson’s 13, O’Mahony’s 11 and Furlong’s 10 - albeit replacements Conor Murray’s 17 and Keith Earls’s 15 are worth noting too.
