RWC Daily: Another farce to melt Joe Schmidt's mind

from The Left Wing · host Irish Independent

As if the Rugby World Cup couldn't offer up any more farce, Cian Tracey and Jonathan Bradley report on a "disgraceful" playing surface in Fukuoka where Ireland complete their pool campaign against Samoa tomorrow.Compared to the impending destruction of Super-Typhoon Hagibis, this is small beer but it was clear from Joe Schmidt's behaviour at today's Captain's Run that hes not happy with the pitch.Along with Ruaidhri O'Connor, the lads assess the potential for danger from the pitch and from Ireland's 17/1 opponents, while they reflect on the looming crisis that will hit the World Cup if Scotland are knocked out without getting the chance to compete for their quarter-final place.All three are tipping a win, but the bonus point and the performance are as important as the result.We take some listeners questions, while Ruaidri has a bit of advice for travelling fans on some no-nos when ordering food in Japan after attracting an audience over dinner last night.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
