Why isn't she viable? I think that with good build she can be good in the jungle.
Like Sirell said, her clear speed is terrible and she has a really high gold and level threshold before she will shine. Now a jungle offers both less CS and xp than a lane offers (and still will after S4, but to some lesser extent). Besides that, her ganks are not 100% reliable.
Even if it would be viable, you would not be playing it correctly. Irelia jungle needs attack speed marks, should grab E at level 3 and would run different masteries. If you're building irelia full tank, you're doing it wrong.
I don't see what the fun is in playing something that gets outclassed in every aspect by other junglers.

I already answered this. The 'good build' is far too expensive and she has slow clear.
I know that those items are expensive and I will work on this.
and ... Whats wrong with the runes?
You splash your runes too much, so you don't get the most effective stats out of them. You just get a lot of small stats that don't amount to much in the early game and amounts to negligible in the late game.
Sirell y u always beat me to bashing the ****ty new guides???? :(
Too much time on my hands and too many bad guides available.
Jungle Irelia is not viable indeed, and I highly doubt she will be after S4 changes.

Other than the fact that Irelia isn't a viable jungle due to her slow clear times and item dependency, your guide lacks pretty much any real content. And you want to buy Blade of the Ruined King, Ravenous Hydra, Trinity Force and Frozen Mallet on a jungler's budget.
Runes are also all over the place.
Also failed to max a second skill properly.
2 ranked games with Irelia, both of which were losses.
I fail to see how you even know how to play this game, let alone know everything about Irelia.
