It still hadn't quite got to those heights.
It felt anyway, as it did in the 2023 World Cup or in qualifying for that World Cup.
Whereas now it feels that we haven't seen the end point of this.
but the trajectory might just be about to overtake that.
Now, of course, that argument will seem foolish, Sue, unless they actually go and qualify for the World Cup.
Yeah, what do you think?
What is your theory on Ireland playing well at 1-0 down?
You mentioned Denise O'Sullivan there.
She was speaking to our own Stephen Doyle after the game as well.
Let's have a listen to this.
Denise O'Sullivan there speaking to Stephen Doyle after the disappointment of yesterday.
I guess as well, Sue, when it comes to how we're judging the peak of this team, the depth part is a massive part of that conversation.
As you mentioned there, the impact that Ireland have got off the bench in the last couple of games has been really significant.
But I guess we're always going to judge this team on what sort of tune Carla Ward manages to get out of O'Sullivan and Katie McCabe in particular.
No, it's fascinating though, even kind of thinking back to what Carla was saying in her first answer there in the press conference bit that we played about building an identity and talking about doing that, you know, being Carla Ward on the ball, being Ireland off the ball was her first press conference message.
And even just the way in which they've settled into that formation that you've outlined there, it just feels perfect for an Irish team.
And look, maybe that's
loaded somewhat because the men's team are playing that same formation as well.
But it does feel that that sort of ability to lean on three centre backs, you know, lean on them to actually play in your midfielders, play in your attackers, have loads of possession in a game and relying on your wing backs to stretch your opponent.
It kind of feels that this is the Irish way at the moment and both teams, not least this women's national team, are very comfortable in that.
