Ireland Coach Declan Kidney said, “The two camps that we have had have been hugely beneficial in terms of continuing the work from last season and preparing for the year ahead in what will certainly be a big challenge for the squad. We set out to maintain the building process of a panel based on the summer tours as well as that already knew about the players”.
“The next time we meet as a squad will be November, so hopefully the players can produce good form so that the foundations laid now will benefit us at that point.”
