OTB Rugby · RUGBY DAILY: Hugo Keenan back to his best, the Scott Penny impact and are Ireland closing the gap on England? · 13 Apr 2026 podcast

It's a hard place to come and play, especially against the world champions on their homecoming, especially packed down in a scrum against some really incredible props.

How did you find the whole experience in terms of the rugby on the pitch?

Really, really good.

I think, to be honest, I've been really well prepared the last two weeks in camp.

I don't think there was any shock that I was like, oh my God, this is international rugby.

The girls have prepared me really well during the last two weeks and the coaches and everyone, even at scrum time.

It's been a really intense two weeks, but it's really stood to me now.

I just was so happy coming on.

I had a massive smile on my face.

It was just amazing looking around and seeing the massive crowd, seeing my parents in the crowd as well.

I was just so ready to go.

I just wanted to get my hands on the ball and move.

It was great.

Has this been a long time coming for you?

yeah i'd say i'd say it is like i've been in and around like the squad for the last three or four years like i was in sevens when i was 18 and then i kind of had a history of like injuries so like i lost my contract and stuff like it took me nearly 13 months to come back and then i got back into 15s and like i i've been in a lot of like match day squads like with traveling reserve and stuff so um yeah a good few years coming but i i'm just i just over there and i can't believe it's actually happening it's kind of like a pinch me moment i can't believe it's

happening so yeah and what a place to make your debut in front of like 77 000 people what were the feelings when you were standing on the sideline like getting ready to go on i was kind of it sounds really weird because like i was kind of like waiting to get nervous but like i was just so excited i was just like so ready to go on i was nervous that like you know what you always have in the back of your head it's like what if i don't get on do you mean like my parents have traveled over but

Just getting on, I was just thinking, I was like, my dad's watching this.

You know what I mean?

I've finally done it.

I've finally got my first cap.
