Our next question when we meet Joe Schmidt... Have the lads been practising their penalty-kicks for the World Cup?
Ireland Schools Under-18s have found the going tough at the European Championships in Balma, France over the last week. Noel McNamara's side will face Scotland in the 7/8th place match after defeats to Georgia and Wales in the group stages.
Ireland lost 14-9 to Wales, on Tuesday, but their big slip was against the Georgians.
The team, containing players from elite rugby schools such as Crescent College, St Michael's, Blackrock, Methody and Leinster Senior Cup winners Cistercian College, then took part in a penalty shoot-out.
Ireland missed three of their four kicks at goal while the young Lelos were successful with all three attempts in a 3-1 shoot-out win.
The shoot-out fun starts around 36 minutes in.
