Carey cautious ahead of Rome recovery mission
Bidding to help Ireland haul itself off the bottom of the League following a disastrous start when last in the opening leg in La Baule, Carey knows a repeat is possible, particularly as our heavy hitters remain unavailable. However, he said the team would not go down without a fight.
“We know we are the underdogs and are up against it, but we are not completely dismissing our chances. Our aim is for a good placing and to get on the scoreboard. We will all be trying hard to ride well. Obviously, we are not favourites to win, we came here knowing that, but it’s not unrealistic to expect a result,” he said.
