Thanks Daniel, very kind. But not a hope. We always bomb when it comes to RWCs, sadly. Some day ...

No

Yes, the whole world is indeed already here and here to stay.

This track has been composed by Greg Malocca from Egoboo Music, Maria. We're loving it as well ^_^

Thanks for your support (and to England too). Much appreciated. Shame about our Celtic cousins. We were out manouevred by Laporte. Hopefully next time.

Happy Saint Patrick's Day NOT Paddy's.

"Ireland, ready for 1000s of undocumented male migrants claiming 'asylum' "

The EU doesn't rule anyone you clown 🤡 it's our vehicle to cooperate across our continent. Are France, Netherlands, Germany, Slovenia, Italy, Sweden all ruled by the EU? Get an education you fkin 1diot 🐑

Probably a yank? Your education system isn't great so that's probably why you're so dumb.

Michael McLaggan Dude 2023 is a long time away we just walked out of a recession we'll be in a much better place economically the next six years, the drought will eventually break and the Zuptas are digging their own grave. Even with all that we'll still be ready and a good option, our crime can't be much worse than Brazil's which recently held the Olympics. SA needs something positive to look forward too after a couple of shaky years.

Watched it, it's ok, but this is superior .... France won in the end, Money rules the world it seems

You obviously forget a chap called Willie John McBride...and where does he live?

Yeah we can all go to SA and get mugged on the streets 😂

Yes, he works in Hollywood, California not Holywood, County Down. It would be a long commute.

J. o'neill and you and all your desendants family and friends never left lived or worked outside of Ireland or went a mile past a cow shit your one of them who uses the term plastic paddy get to bed child 😈

Why not?

Taint ABird Well For starters Ireland is too small population wise , cannot possibly offer a good revenue return profits , infrastructure not good enough in comparison to France let alone South Africa , lack of sports facilities paticularly those required to host the world cup , plus Irish climate is droughty and bland .

'Well For starters Ireland is too small population wise , cannot possibly offer a good revenue return profits', You might wish to reconsider this assumption. The island of Ireland has a population greater than that of New Zealand which successfully hosted the RWC in 2011. Furthermore, Scotland, Wales, England and France are all on Ireland's doorstep, unlike say, South Africa, which is far away from everywhere. The feasibility study behind the application suggests that Ireland can make a profit, though in all likely-hood it would be lower than that of France and presumably South Africa. The Irish bid provides an opportunity to spread the game in the USA - it includes a plan to do so as part of its application. France and SA cannot offer anything like this. Spreading rugby in the US is a long term objective for World Rugby; the Irish bid is strategic while the rival bids are not. 'infrastructure not good enough in comparison to France let alone South Africa , lack of sports facilities paticularly those required to host the world cup' While Ireland does not have FIFA World Cup stadia at its disposal, it does possess stadia that more than meet the minimum standards required. They compare well, and in some cases surpass, anything New Zealand had in 2011 (some require refurbishment, all would require comms upgrades). I suspect Ireland has sports facilities that might surprise you. Other infrastructure include excellent road, rail, air and ferry connectivitiy. It has more than enough hotel beds to accommodate travelling fans from across the world. It is also a safer country to visit than South Africa or France - all factors that will be taken into consideration. '.., plus Irish climate is droughty and bland' I don't know what 'droughty' is, and it is certainly not bland. It changes all the time, its one of the characteristics of living in this part of the world. Climate is not a factor here as Ireland has the same climate as England which hosted the RWC in 2015. Rugby was invented in this climate! In conclusion, if World Rugby need to prioritize profit, then Ireland is in a weaker position than South Africa or France. However, it may also be the case that World Rugby will look at France and South Africa and wonder what long-term benefit will accrue from choosing either as a hosts - its been held in both countries before. In this situation Ireland would be in a stronger position. Ireland was organised enough to submit its bid first, with the financial support of the governments of the Republic and Northern Ireland; France came next with a strategy to undermine the Irish bid - which seems to have failed, I think; South Africa's application followed a messy process which may not inspire confidence. But who knows what World Rugby wants or thinks?

Taint ABird You have made excellent points regarding Irelands capability to host the rugby world cup tournament and please don't see my rhetoric as an attack on Irish confidence I am just merely trying to highlight the short comings of an Irish world cup. You mentioned that Ireland has stellar stadia to host the world cup , I hope you don't mean GAA stadiums because many of them are basically glorified football fields , with many of them unable to seat over 20 000 people and may I remind that Ireland can never host such a major tournament on its own , it will always require the assistance of the UK , in this case using stadia from Northern Ireland . Certainly Ireland can provide essential accommodation for football spectators but most of it is in Dublin with many parts of the country being major towns or villages unable to host a large influx of people. actually come to think of it aren't many GAA stadia located in these small towns ?
