Kearney: Favourites Tag Doesn’t Come Into It

Full-back Rob Kearney dismissed talk of Ireland being favourites ahead of Saturday’s NatWest 6 Nations showdown with Wales at the Aviva Stadium (kick-off 2.15pm).

“They’re a good side, they’ll back themselves away from home. The bookies aren’t right every week and these are always very tight games,” said Rob Kearney, as he looked forward to facing Wales this weekend.
