It is right, as we ventilate public anger on this issue in the debate, that we remember that rugby football and its development is important to the country. The IRFU has probably done more than many organisations on a 32 county, four province basis to ensure all strands of opinion on the island are adequately reflected. That is one of the great strengths of rugby in this country. It is a 32 county game, which is a proud tradition. It reflects all four provinces. That is the reason it is unacceptable that professional rugby in Connacht would be discarded, jettisoned and put to one side and the reason we are debating this matter and using this opportunity to send a strong message to the IRFU before a final decision is taken on the matter.
