Frustrated Leamy not giving in

IT’S becoming an all-too-familiar sight — depressing post-mortems after embarrassing displays against weaker opposition.

Since the summer tour to Argentina, Ireland have repeatedly failed to convince on seven successive occasions — against the Pumas (twice), Scotland, Bayonne, Italy, Namibia and now Georgia.

The last two performances against the Pool D minnows are a major cause for concern, with evidence of a general malaise in the Irish camp and of a team in serious decline.
