Cian Healy believes Greg Feek’s ability to “unite” Ireland’s forwards into loving the scrum has transformed their set-piece threat. Former New Zealand prop Feek joined Leinster as scrum coach in 2010 and stepped up to Ireland a year later. The 44-year-old has helped whip Ireland’s scrum into one of the most threatening and technically proficient weapons in the Test arena, a feat that prop Healy feels deserves great respect. Healy admitted Ireland’s pack always wants to give their talented backline every chance to flourish – especially with the ever-demanding Conor Murray and Johnny Sexton on hand.
