Ireland’s head coach and his players were not satisfied with a record-breaking win that banished World Cup memories
Andy Farrell does not do long hangovers. They seem to be on what is, you guess, a pretty long list of things he considers a waste of time. He seemed genuinely perplexed whenever anyone asked him thislast week if his team was suffering from a comedown after the World Cup.
“In all honesty the World Cup has nothing to do with it,” Farrell said again late on Friday night. “All the talk about hangovers, there’s no hangovers with us. Hangovers are for tomorrow. We’re three months down the line. It’s a big hangover if you can’t get over it in that time.”
