But the outlook is much better now, with the Dubliner telling Irish Rugby TV he had a great week in rehab. Ireland coach Andy Farrell initially stated that he had fingers crossed for Sheehan, who caused damage by pulling his boot on a loose ball in that Test match against England.

However, Farrell had more positive news a couple of days later when he stated that we expect him to be ready for the Rugby World Cup before including Sheehan in his 33-man squad. Sheehan was at camp in Ireland today packing up his equipment for the tournament and spoke about his excitement about the games.

Players' Excitement and Resilience as Ireland Gears Up for the Rugby World Cup

Last week I was a little anxious to leave the field but I had a great week in rehab and the guys did a great job trying to get me back so very excited to be able to get on a plane to France, he said. We can't wait to really get there. I was annoyed that I missed a week with the guys last week in France, so I'm looking forward to seeing the hype around the Rugby World Cup there.

I have already seen some photos of the Tour [Irish base], they are already very hospitable towards the Irish. We pack and have a few days off to relax, spend time with family and friends before we leave on Thursday, Some exciting days. We got a big bag of goodies. Vodafone and Dove, they all gave us some gifts and Lots of gear, he added.

Meanwhile, Conor Murray said he was proud of how he responded to criticism after the 2019 Rugby World Cup. I'm proud of how I reacted, to be honest. The brunt of the criticism went to Johnny and me. I wouldn't say that I played particularly badly, but as a whole group we didn't perform.

Crowley has taken Byrne's spot in Ireland's fly-half pecking order

Former Republic of Ireland striker Tommy Bow says Jack Crowley is ahead of Ross Byrne in the Ireland pecking order, behind captain Johnny Sexton. After Sexton's disqualification, Crowley began the warm-up games of the Rugby World Cup against Italy and Samoa, and 28-year-old Byrne gave the go-ahead for a meeting with England.

Bowe credits their differing fortunes at club level as pushing Munster into the half, with Crowley ahead of Byrne's Leinster. Crowley helped Munster win the Rugby Unified Championship title in May.

While the 23-year-old had a superb victory in the URC final against the Stormers in Cape Town, Byrne and Leinster suffered heartache in the Heineken Champions Cup final, squandering the lead and losing to La Rochelle 27–26.

Bowe, who played for Ireland in the 2011 and 2015 Rugby World Cups, told the Rugby Union Weekly podcast: I thought going into this competition that Ross Byrne, who is number two at Leinster, would be something like him. as a replacement for Johnny Sexton, he would sit on the bench.

I wonder how much the European Cup final influenced him because he was the one who pulled the strings against La Rochelle. Leinster were outclassing them on stages, they had the opportunity to score a goal but decided to play on and didn't take advantage of it.

Crowley's Impact, Sexton's Return, and the Role of Gibson Park in Ireland's Rugby World Cup Campaign

Leinster lost by one point, and these are decisive minutes that mean a huge amount of money before the Rugby World Cup. Bowe then praised Crowley's contribution in the latter stages of the triumphant URC campaign in Munster as the province ended a 12-year cutlery wait.

So I think the hierarchy has changed, Bowe added. Byrne would have been second to Sexton in the Six Nations, but now Crowley has taken that seat. After serving a three-match ban for misconduct towards match officials following Leinster's loss to La Rochelle, Sexton will be available for the first Rugby World Cup match against Romania in Bordeaux on 9 September.

However, while the captain's return will be a big boost, Bowe believes scrimmage linebacker Jamison Gibson-Park is more important than linebacker in head coach Andy Farrell's system. The former British and Irish Lions defender said: Johnny Sexton is pulling all the strings but when it comes to Andy Farrell and the pace at which Ireland are playing, Conor Murray was man of the match at the weekend [against Samoa], he was exceptional. player. but it doesn't play at the same pace as Gibson Park.

“Gibson Park is really important for the Republic of Ireland against bigger and faster teams. It's funny to have five of the best teams on the same side."

Ireland's Preparedness and Tough Group Draw at the Rugby World Cup

Bowe believes that although the Republic of Ireland suffered a few setbacks in preparation for the 2019 tournament in Japan, Farrell's team did the right thing in getting ready to start their campaign as the world's number one team.

Ireland have never gone beyond a Rugby World Cup quarter-final and while they look well-equipped to break new ground, they have a tough road ahead of them with South Africa and Scotland next to them in Group B, with France or New Zealand most likely in Group B . the last eight if they reach this stage.

Bowe says the fact that the top five teams in the world - Ireland, South Africa, France, New Zealand and Scotland - are on the same side is ridiculous. This will make the group stages very interesting, but it's very disappointing to think that out of the top five teams, two will advance to the semi-finals.

“It's a little annoying because Ireland did everything right ahead of this Rugby World Cup. Yes, they could have made it to the quarter-finals and semi-finals, but I think in terms of running the RWC competition, to think they drew three years too late, in that sense, it doesn't represent rugby in the best light."

Ireland in good shape heading into Rugby World Cup

Ireland scrum midfielder Conor Murray is optimistic about his team's chances at the upcoming Rugby World Cup. Team is grouped in Group B along with defending champions South Africa, Scotland, Tonga and Romania.

But Andy Farrell's men will count on their chances with a record 13 wins in a row when they defeated Samoa in the final warm-up game over the weekend, up one better. than their hitting streak under Joe Schmidt in 2017 and 2018.

They are also the top ranked team preparing for the showcase event and the 34-year-old believes they are well prepared for the competition. We are in a pretty good position considering where we have been in the last two years and what we have achieved, he said.

Our team never get carried away. We know, even going to Bayonne, where a lot of people probably thought we were favorites, we know that before every game we have to respect our opponents, and we really did on Saturday.

“We knew how difficult it would be, so yes, we made it through the summer, you know; we treat them like test matches and that's exactly what they are. So going through it all and winning it all is great.”

Warm-up Results Hold Little Value as Ireland Gears Up for Rugby World Cup Challenge

Ireland got a narrow win over Samoa last weekend's game in Bayonne thanks to Jimmy O'Brien, Murray and Rob Herring trying to get them 17-13 away. Although questions raised about how close the game is, Murray insist that warm-up results of little value before a tournament such as the Rugby World Cup.

At the Rugby World Cup, it doesn't really matter. When you arrive at the tournament, when the competition starts in earnest, you must show your best rugby skills. But I think the team knows that we know how good it can be. We also know how hard we will have to work to reach this level.

“So the summer streak was good, people were getting strikeouts and now we feel ready for the match, but by the time of the Rugby World Cup it’s a different animal. We know what the pressure will be, what the atmosphere will be like. We felt pretty confident, we know where we are with what we've been through."
