Briggs: We have nothing to fear in World Cup

After last season’s incredible Grand Slam success, Ireland head into next year’s Women’s Rugby World Cup with high hopes and big dreams.

The draw takes place in host nation France this morning (10.30am) with Ireland among the 12 qualifiers for the global showpiece.

Niamh Briggs, who kicked all six points in Ireland’s win in Milan last March — the game which clinched the Grand Slam — insists the side have nothing to fear.
