When pressed if Wafer was in a race against time to recover in time for the tournament in England, Fogarty responded: “No, we’re quite confident that she will play some part in the World Cup, which is really, really pleasing.<\/p>\n
“At the moment she’s tracking really well. It’s just making sure it’s right for her when she comes back into it.”<\/p>\n
Ireland have been hit by injury setbacks in the build-up to the World Cup, with forwards Erin King and Dorothy Wall ruled out. <\/p>\n
“There’s no doubt about it, losing three key players like that has been difficult,” added Fogarty.<\/p>\n
“But that’s the nature of the game. We’ve had Sam [Monaghan] coming back in, which is a big addition for us and there’s been other girls coming through which have impressed us throughout the camp.<\/p>\n
“Injuries like that, they’re always going to come. They’re not ideal going into a World Cup but it’s something we have to deal with and adapt with and that’s what we’ve done over the last couple of weeks.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"When pressed if Wafer was in a race against time to recover in time for the tournament in…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":34983,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[35],"tags":[5903,101,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-34982","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-rugby","8":"tag-rugby","9":"tag-sports","10":"tag-uk","11":"tag-united-kingdom","12":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34982","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=34982"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34982\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/34983"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=34982"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=34982"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=34982"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
