In Pics: Ireland Management Press Conference In Cork

‘It’s been great really, a bit nerve wracking. You’re just trying to get everything right and get things off to a good start. The players have come in well. We invited 45 players, we got 40 of them in and they’ve all been working hard.’ The thoughts of Declan Kidney on his first week as Ireland coach.
