 RLWC2017 - Ireland v. Wales Report It was the battle of the Celts in the first of a double-header in Perth as John Kears winless Wales came up against Mark Aston's Ireland side in the final game of the World Cup for both sides.
Even though both sides would be going home at the final hooter there was still pride, local bragging rights and future international places to play for. There were plenty of familiar names on show from both Super League and the Championship.
Wales needed a sixty-four point winning margin to finish ahead of the Irish but that looked a very difficult ask against an Irish side who have impressed in their opening two games.
