Gallery: Great shots of the Irish International Rules team training together at Carton House

Hope the weather isn't like this in Australia.

The Irish International Rules side got together this morning for a spot of training at Carton House in Kildare but, as these pictures show you, November in Ireland is bound to be a lot more brisk that the Australian summertime the team are heading out towards. The panel departs for the southern hemisphere on Wednesday 12 November with the first test against the Aussies taking place 10 days later in Perth. Australia have a 101-point aggregate defeat to put behind them from last year.
