I think it’s a great shame the Irish haven’t got it. That would have been such a party. As the only one of the three not to have hosted before, shouldn’t the Irish have had a head start?
And therein lies the problem I think (I am biased obviously) but I think if you look at comments and where Ireland ended up score wise they were below France as well.
Get the impression their plan wasn't as well thought out, some of the logistical issues that had previously been raised weren't addressed,
Probably laid on the" We are the forgotten NH rugby nation who punches above our weight, its our turn.... fiddly diddly dee, and look here's Brian O'Driscoll dressed as a sad leprechaun..." a bit too heavily
Though am sure if Nelson Mandela was still around we probably would rolled him out for some emotive videos as well...
