Sir, - After yet another embarrassing encounter, the Irish rugby team remains in the wilderness totally lost and bereft of ideas.
All the natural flair and Irishness has been coached out of the team, who now play a type of rugby which obviously does not suit the Irish psyche.
I do not advocate a return to the infamous "Three Bs", but we do need to reinvent the "Paddy factor". - Yours, etc.,
Douglas Road, Cork.
