A tournament which promised so much.
It hasn’t even been two years since the 2015 Rugby World Cup.
The tournament had so many memorable (not all positive) moments; Ireland’s emotional victory over France, Japan shocking the world with their win over South Africa, England failing to get out of their group on home soil and a very entertaining final between Australia and New Zealand.
With regards to Ireland, lessons have been learned.
The squad was strong, but there was a lack of strength in depth and this is something which Joe Schmidt is aiming to rectify and has done so over the past 18 months.
With this in mind, can you name the original 31-man squad which Schmidt picked ahead of the tournament?
Please note that you will need both first and second names of the players and this strictly relates to the original squad announcement, late call-ups are not included.
Good luck!
