And they just ran up, whatever it was, 14 tries.

Indo Sport

But it is amazing.

Indo Sport
Six Nations preview | Aofie Wafer in studio | Facing down England & World Cup injuries

They've got some incredible players.

Indo Sport
Six Nations preview | Aofie Wafer in studio | Facing down England & World Cup injuries

Obviously, the likes of Ellie Kildon.

Indo Sport
Six Nations preview | Aofie Wafer in studio | Facing down England & World Cup injuries

I mean, she's become such a popular player and like,

Indo Sport
Six Nations preview | Aofie Wafer in studio | Facing down England & World Cup injuries

you know people are drawn to her but it is incredible that they still pull the crowds and I remember last year speaking to somebody after the World Cup final I was over there and the atmosphere really was incredible and there was stuff like you know fake merchandise you know there was people selling off tickets outside the ground and somebody said to me you would never see that at a women's at a women's game but you know

They've just brought it on to another level and you just hope for Ireland this weekend that they don't get kind of lost in that slipstream, which I don't believe that they will.

Indo Sport

I think they do seem to be set on putting in a really good performance against them this weekend.

Indo Sport
Six Nations preview | Aofie Wafer in studio | Facing down England & World Cup injuries

Yeah, I mean, for sure.

Indo Sport

But look, there's no doubt that the players in the... the number of players over in the PWR now, we were speaking about that with the players today at their media day, that they will bring back kind of something different to this Irish squad.

Indo Sport

You know, if

Indo Sport

you know, they're more familiar with playing with them.

I was talking to Aoife Wafer just recently, like she trains with the likes of Ellie Culldon every day.

Indo Sport
Six Nations preview | Aofie Wafer in studio | Facing down England & World Cup injuries

She watches how she does things.

Indo Sport

So all of that, you'd imagine, as much as we want the Irish League itself, you know, to grow, but you'd imagine that that will only be a benefit for the players.

Indo Sport

And you mentioned Elle Perry there.

Indo Sport
Six Nations preview | Aofie Wafer in studio | Facing down England & World Cup injuries

Of course, it's likely to be her first time playing against the country of her birth.

Indo Sport
Six Nations preview | Aofie Wafer in studio | Facing down England & World Cup injuries

She will bring some kind of inside information as well to the Irish squad this weekend because the scrum

Indo Sport

was a big factor in that game in Cork last weekend, as it always is against English side.

Indo Sport
Six Nations preview | Aofie Wafer in studio | Facing down England & World Cup injuries

So they will need that to be locked in this weekend.
