A sea of green.
One of the joys of having this Rugby World Cup being played so close to home is that Irish fans are able to travel in their thousands to watch the boys in green and today’s match against Romania looks like it might as well be played at the Aviva, such is the support in London for our boys.
Joe Schmidt’s side will undoubtedly receive a rapturous applause when they step out onto the pitch at Wembley because once again, Irish fans are taking over, just like they did in Cardiff during the opening round win against Canada.
Take a look at some of these images. We’re not jealous at all, not even in the slightest.
C.O.Y.B.I.G!

It's a sea of green at Wembley today. I'm working in the fanzone doing some crowd entertaining, as you do, & luckily being an Irish player.
