Welcome to the top women's rugby news in under 60 seconds for Nov 8-14. We begin and end with Ireland. Anthony Eddy, the IRFU’s Director of Rugby held an interview where he spoke about the women's failure to qualify for the 2021 Rugby World Cup. He pinned the fault directly on the players and he defended the systems the IRFU has in place. Very quickly former players spoke out against his comments and current players followed a few days later. Meanwhile, we await the results of the “independent” review. We’ll have to see if any of this negative press has an effect. If we look at history, it won’t...the IRFU will just wait for it to blow over. A light in the tunnel came at the end of the week when Ireland beat #7 ranked USA 20-10.
