We have a look at the statistics behind Ireland Women’s Six Nations campaign in terms of player involvement. With just over four months go until Ireland’s opening fixture against Australia on 9th August how many Ulster Players are likely to be involved in that opening match?
Before we get to the statistics let’s have a look at how Ireland Women performed over the Six Nations.
From the Ulster perspective things aren’t looking good to be honest. Coach Tom Tierney named 31 players in the various squads for the Six Nations matches with only four of those 31, or 12.9%, Ulster players. Unfortunately when you look at actual minutes played over the five games the Ulster involvement drops to a paltry 4.3%, based on minutes on the pitch, as you can see below.
