But genuinely, if I was a neutral in this, I actually think Ireland will get a win here and a star one.

Be very tight.

I think you'll see a very similar game to the last couple of meetings.

It'll go right down to the wire.

It's just about that last 20 minutes and staying in the fight.

I think we'll get it done.

I think we'll get it done.

So we have a captain's run in about an hour, hour and a half time in the stadium behind me.

And then the rest of the day, there's a couple bits I'm working on content-wise.

So you may see those over the next couple of days on Off The Ball's social channels.

And then, yeah, just taking the city.

I've never been to Claremont.

It was funny.

I was coming in from Charles de Gaulle last night and I was wearing a Ford hoodie that had Goodyear on it.

And I was told I wouldn't be allowed into Claremont with that on because obviously...

Michelin is a product of Clermont.

And I'm actually standing beside the HQ here.

So maybe I might go in there and have a look, do the tour.

Yeah, I'd certainly take the consequences of winning the Challenge Cup and getting into Europe, as you say.

It just would be a massive disappointment and a little bit of a failure if Ulster failed to get into the playoffs.
