It actually originates from Munster Rugby which is ironic as the majority of the Irish team play for Leinster.
Munster fans sang it occasionally but really started to sing it after Dolores O’Riordan’s death (Cranberys) who was a limerick women from Munster.
The words of the song (in your head) also represents what Munster feel they do to other teams in Thomond Park, get in their head……

Apparently according to some reports it came into the sporting arena when Limerick won the Senior All Ireland Hurling a few months after her death and their fans started singing it..... It was then that the Munster Rugby crowd adopted it......
You young whippersnapper, I am entitled too. I am senior ...
Just for the devilment…
Wales v Argentina - Wales by 12
Ireland v New Zealand - All Blacks by 4
England v Fiji - this is a hard call, England by 4
France v South Africa - France by 5
All of these games could quite easily go either way.
Disclaimer - was sabotaged on canal towpath by fallen autumn berries and damp cobbles, big tumble resulting in wrist brace and some serious painkillers which I have enhanced with wine. My guessing skills might be mildly impaired.

Sadly no. I reckon I would have bounced up with no damage if sufficiently well oiled.
Wales 27 - Argentina 14
Ireland 32 - All Blacks 19
England 28 Fiji 20
France 16 Boks 25
France V SA could go either way. A NH clean sweep would be great.

Stop it , the Frogs are going all the way lol ! Where's Dupont ffs ? Stick a bit of British Steel in that cheekbone and wheel him out for the quarters. Seriously, I think he'll be back for the Semi's if they get there !
I think Farrell at 10 is the right call. Ford & Farrell don’t seem to work together.
love watching Smith play. The energy and unpredictability he brings can get you off your seat but…….not sure at full back
think the Fijian’s will target him big time
