Sorry but I think it’s v condescending to talk about Irish players being proud after conceding nine tries at home to a team who were down a player for an hour. Really wish the VM panel would talk about the total lack of investment by @IrishRugby in the women’s team #IREvFRA
This Irish team are being sent out by @IrishRugby to fail. We’ve gone from Grand Slam winners and World Cup semifinalists to barely even also-rans in the space of a decade. There’d be a much heavier inquiry into the system if the men finished even third in the 6N #IREvFRA
You can’t honestly expect amateurs to compete physically against full-time professionals. No matter how willing they are, you can’t just will yourself into being fitter and stronger on the day. It takes serious time and investment that @IrishRugby are unwilling to make #IREvFRA

Les Bleus used to occupy, recover the ball in the opposition side and then score quickly in transition (under 5 phases).
Well Saturday afternoon, that went wrong...

France was stubborn in a playstyle that isn't what they plan all year.
And the guilty is *drum roll* the kicking game.
That's the first time that it was so defficient under Galthié.

2) Execution
Irishmen were simply better, technically, individually, Murray, Sexton, Keenan, Lowe... All rocked their international level kicking game.
For Les Bleus, Besides Dupont, kicking game was to much inconsistent.
