Andy Farrell’s squad got a brilliant reception at the Stade de la Vallée du Cher.
Murray Kinsella Reports from Tours WITH THE SUN shining and 12,000 people roaring their welcome to Tours, it was clear how much the Irish players were enjoying events at Stade de la Vallée du Cher this morning.
The Irish players sang along with the massive crowd in what was a party atmosphere. The craic, it’s fair to say, was 90 at the Vallée du Cher. Ireland would be entitled to be frustrated about the surface at Vallée du Cher, but it’s understood that when the possibility of cancelling the session altogether was raised yesterday, Farrell insisted on this morning’s meet-and-greet going ahead.
“It’s a nice start getting into the country and also this is what World Cups are all about, making sure you understand what it’s all about on the ground and understanding the people.”
