Jack McGrath: Millennium Stadium "good" for Ireland

Ireland's Jack McGrath tells Sports Mole that the Millennium Stadium has been a "good stadium" for the Six Nations champions recently.

Jack McGrath has admitted that the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff has been a "good stadium" for Ireland following their win over France at the Welsh ground in the Rugby World Cup.

The Six Nations champions, who played two of their pool matches at the stadium, will be in Cardiff again next weekend for their quarter-final against Argentina.

The 26-year-old told Sports Mole: "I hadn't played here once until the Six Nations last year and now I think I've played three or four times and other guys have played a lot of times, so I suppose it's been a good stadium for us.

"We enjoy playing here, it's a great atmosphere. We're just looking forward to getting back here next week and getting the supporters behind us."

Ireland finished top in Pool D, avoiding a last-eight meeting with reigning world champions New Zealand.
