"There are some suggestions that they'll all end back playing in Ireland and that they're not that talented. "They are going to be good players for Ireland in the future and they are talented players, and you will see them blossom - and other players like Troy Parrott as well and players I haven't even mentioned. "We've got a whole lot of players coming through and that's a real positive in relation to it. "I guess you can say that, but us young lads coming through need to step up now," Knight said.
