Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Kua whakaae a Martin O'Neill kei reira tonu nga waahi hei hopu i roto i tana kapa Republic of Ireland mo te tukinga Euro 2016 o te Ratapu me Poland. Kua pau i te wiki whakamutunga te rangatira 63-tau-tau o Ireland e pupuri ana i ona maihao i runga i te raupapa o nga whakapae whara, i te wa katoa e whakaaro ana ki nga whiringa hei whakakapi i nga waahi pea i roto i tana rarangi timatanga. Ko te kaitakawaenga o Everton a Darron Gibson, i uru ki te whakataetae mo te whakataetae o te Ratapu i te Aviva Stadium, kua hoki mai ki tana karapu i muri i tana whakaae ki te hinganga i tana pakanga ki te raru o te kopu, ahakoa i whiwhi a O'Neill i nga korero pai ake i te Paraire i te wa i taea ai e te kaitautoko a Stephen Ward me te winger a James McClean te whakangungu i Malahide. Kua whakaae a Martin O'Neill kei te wātea tonu ngā tūranga i roto i tana kapa Republic o Ireland. Ko Stephen Quinn me Kevin Doyle o te Republic of Ireland i te wā whakangungu i Gannon Park. Heoi anō, kāore e whakaingoatia te kapa tae noa ki te rā o te kēmu, ā, ko te tikanga kei te whai wā tonu ngā tāngata ki te whakauru i a rātau ki roto i ana mahere. Ka mea a O'Neill: 'Ki taku whakaaro he tūranga kei runga mo te hopu, penei i nga wa katoa mai i taku taenga mai ki konei, a ki taku whakaaro ko tetahi kaiwhakahaere o te ao ka kii atu ki a koe i te mea ano. 'Kei a ia tētahi whakaaro ka taea e ia te whakatakoto i ngā wiki e rua i mua, engari ko te wā tuatahi e tino whakaaro ana koe ki a ia ko te wā kei a koe ngā kaitākaro e wātea ana mō te wiki o te kēmu. 'He pono, kotahi, e rua rānei ngā kaitākaro nā tētahi take, nā te whara rānei, kāore i wātea mō te tīmatanga o te wiki, nō reira me whakatakoto whakaaro kē koe, he mahere kē mō ngā kaitākaro e whakaaro ana koe ka uru mai ki te kēmu. Engari i te nuinga o te wā, he tūnga tonu kei konei hei hopu. Kei te raru a Ward raua ko McClean i nga raru waewae, ana ahakoa ko te winger Wigan he mema tuuturu o te timatanga XI i raro i a O'Neill, tera pea ko te korenga o te taha maui o Burnley a Ward e nui ake ai tana awangawanga. Ka taea e Marc Wilson, ā, kua tākaro i te taha o muri,
Ka tūtaki a Reipa o Ireland ki a Poland i te Whare Taonga o Aviva i Dublin hei te Rātapu. E tatari ana a Martin O'Neill ki ngā whakapae mō te whara, tae atu ki a Darron Gibson. E kii ana te rangatira kaore ano kia whakatauhia te kapa mo te tukinga tohu Euro 2016.
