Nigel Carolan talks up Ireland U20s

Nigel Carolan talks up Ireland U20s

Nigel Carolan helped guide Ireland’s U20 side to a World Cup final in England last June and he is hugely optimistic about the potential for individual and collective success in the months and years ahead.

Carolan says former youth stars Garry Ringrose and Joe Carbery will be joined by several other tyros, as Schmidt and Ireland build towards the 2019 World Cup. Carolan is convinced that more recently involved players, on top of some linked with this year’s squad, will successfully step off the conveyor belt and show Schmidt they have what it takes to go much further.
