Gordon D’Arcy on Irish pride in Rugby World Cup defeat; should Ireland take comfort if New Zealand go on to win it all?
FAI director of football Marc Canham is in the middle of a busy period where he likely has to look for two new Ireland managers.
- at which point the FAI’s board of directors will vote on Kenny’s position, the expectation being that he and the association will part company. There’ll be no vote on Andy Farrell’s position, he’s safe as houses, Gordon D’Arcy saluting him for the manner in which he dealt with Ireland’s. “The result at the Stade de France shouldn’t be a full stop for this group of Irish players, just another staging post on a journey.” Gregor Paul, The New Zealand Herald rugby columnist, tries to cheer us up too.
The notion that the success of the rugby team over the last couple of years posed a threat to the GAA,, doesn’t hold too much water for Seán Moran. And he’s at a loss to understand the “aggressive belittling of rugby and jubilation at the team’s defeat”. “Why get worked up over any of it? If it’s not your cup of tea, put the saucer down.”where the GAA, the Ladies’ Gaelic Football Association and the Camogie Association will share the county’s Centre of Excellence in Ferns.
