Peter O’Mahony says he will consider his future with Ireland following Saturday’s World Cup quarter-final defeat.
Ciarán Kennedy Reports from Paris A WORLD CUP campaign which brought so much hope ended with Ireland having to stomach another quarter-final exit as the curtain fell on the careers of some of the greatest players to have worn the green jersey.
O’Mahony was speaking shortly after leaving a dejected Ireland dressing room, where Andy Farrell delivered a few words about the team’s journey over the last few years, a run which took in a Grand Slam, a first series win in New Zealand and a 17-game unbeaten streak. “It’s a tough dressing room, probably the toughest I’ve been in, to be honest. But look, as you say, there’s worse things going on in the world. We’ll understand that over the next 24/48 hours.“Lots of players who aren’t here but who were in our squad can step up to the plate as well. I’ve no doubt this team will have left Irish rugby in a better place, y’know? We’ve achieved a huge amount – there’s no other way of putting it.
