Yes, comfortably on a par with both Ireland sides, yet when they finally qualify for a tournament via the play off’s and even then via penalties, the media along with their fans are bugging them up as though they may reach the final.
A poor side with a very lucky qualification still makes them a poor team.
No real media mention of Wales yet we are a much higher ranked side with a much higher record of success in the last decade.
