VIDEO: World Cup waves official goodbye to ‘fearless’ Scotland, ‘glorious’ Wales and ‘fantastic’ Ireland

Tough monkey nuts France.

Ireland are nothing but a misty-eyed memory at the 2015 World Cup but there is always time for an evocative video tribute. World Rugby has produced video packages for each of the home nations who were eliminated at the quarter final stages last weekend. Ireland's features Paul O'Connell stalking his prey, Keith Earls surpassing Brian O'Driscoll's tournament try-scoring record and Luke Fitzgerald making line breaks for fun. What of France? They get no compilation, although we're not sure if they could be stuffed. https://youtu.be/kk1GDQP_VvI
