    Only Ireland's call when playing away from home.
    Don't know the situation at World Cup....maybe only allow one anthem ..and the soldiers' song is not the song for Unionist Ulster men.

    They use to play God Save the Queen when matches were played in NI. But since Ireland's Call we now just use that up there instead

    You play for Ireland so should be Amhran na bhfiann
    The Rugby Team unlike the Soccer team, is an all Ireland team, i.e. 26 counties from the republic of Ireland and the 6 counties from Northern Ireland. The national Anthem is for Republic, and only played for home games. "Ireland call" has being Irelands rugby anthem now for the past 20 years or so.
    Not noticed the presence of the ulster flag before it was highlighted last week in the Canadian game. I don't see the harm in it, but for accuracy it should have being the Northern Ireland flag and not the ulster flag.
