VIDEO: Did you spot these Ireland fans sailing their way to Cardiff’s Millennium Stadium?

Come hell or high water

Come hell or high water…

These two diehard Ireland fans weren’t able to use the ample walking space on the other side of the Millennium Stadium. Why? That’s not important.

What matters is that these two Irish heroes braved the rough waters of the River Taff, rowing their way to see the boys in the green take on France in today’s decisive showdown.

While we do admire the fella wrapped in the flag, we’re reserving particular kudos for the man in front, dressed an awful lot like an extra from Michael Collins. That’s commitment.

Let’s hope for a similarly oar-some perf-oar-mance from Paulie and the boys later.
