## Resource

31,000 fans, three home wins, and a team full of confidence — Ireland Women’s rugby feels like it’s building something special.This week, we’re joined by Ireland Women’s coach Gareth Steenson and journalist Issy Todd to react to Ireland’s emphatic win over Scotland, a record-breaking day at the Aviva Stadium, and what this Six Nations campaign says about the direction of the team.From the atmosphere created by 31,000 supporters and the rise of the ‘Green Wave’ to standout performers, growing competition for places, and why this young squad feels different, we look at the momentum building around Ireland Women’s rugby.We also get into what comes next — pathways, player development, the Celtic Challenge, growing crowds, and why this could just be the beginning for a side that looks ready to keep pushing forward.
