Then they return to England next week where they're playing Fiji in Liverpool.
And then the week after, they're going to Argentina.
And not just Buenos Aires.
I can't even remember what part of Argentina.
It's not an easy part of Argentina to get to.
Scotland have the reverse where they're starting off in Argentina this week.
They return to Edinburgh next.
to play a game in... They go from Argentina to South Africa next week and then they return home to Scotland for a third game.
Three weeks in a row, that level of flights on players, it's not a particularly easy or nice thing to be asking them to do at the end of a very, very long season.
As much as I say it's not a particularly nice schedule on the players and all that, when you do look at the schedule and you look at the way things are falling, how good of a chance do Ireland have over Ireland?
I suppose obviously they want to go all the way and get to a final and win one but in this first block of games to set their stall out nicely because we've obviously mentioned the travel schedule that England and Scotland have for example on the Northern Hemisphere side you look at France who have the same fixtures as Ireland but
They're missing Antoine Dupont as we discovered yesterday and they've also rested some players as well.
So they're not going all guns blazing down to the Southern Hemisphere.
There's a good opportunity for Ireland if they can set their stall out right to put themselves in a great position going into November.
And you mentioned like Andy Farrell using the 2022 tour in New Zealand as the springboard to the Grand Slam the following year and having a real crack at the World Cup.
Yeah, and New Zealand, obviously the kind of new coach bounce with Dave Rennie as well.
It's going to be fascinating to see how all of that comes together.
When we move it on, Steena, just onto the game itself this weekend.
According to Simon Easterby and Paul O'Connell over the last couple of days, it's a full squad of players to work with.
Is this week about going as strong as possible against the Wallabies, strong as possible against New Zealand in two weeks' time, and then use that game in Japan to not make wholesale changes, but maybe just tweak around a couple of things and try out a couple of players here and there?
