I'm good, thanks, Joe.
How are you, Dan?
You all all right?
You all getting over it now?
It's so true because you think about Seamus referencing this young team
Didn't have the scars of previous playoff defeats.
Well, they've got one now.
Probably the deepest cut of all.
Because when it's the World Cup, that's what it elevates to another level.
When you dream of playing for Ireland as a kid, it invariably entails playing at the World Cup.
And they had it.
They had it within their hands.
I still don't know.
Well, I do know why.
And I didn't kind of like buy into the fact that it was a build-up of pressure.
I felt the team adopted a defensive structure that they backed themselves in terms of being able to see it through.
I think the problem reared its ugly head early on in the game.
We just couldn't defend set pieces or we didn't do it well enough in terms of blocking.
And I think Haim has said, and he initially came in when he said about this team, he's going to make sure we're the best at set pieces.
We're not.
