It's like that Tipperary hurling team at the end of the 2000s trying to beat Kilkenny.
This is now the team that Ireland need to take down.
They are going to be defined by this France team because they're not good enough to beat England, but they are good enough to beat France.
So France is their bet noir.
Their bet noir and I don't think they did themselves justice on the scoreline at the weekend.
Now Ireland did have three tries ruled out.
You couldn't say any of them were unfairly ruled out but there was maybe a little bit of bad luck like the Fiona Chute situation when she got held up on the try line after 22 minutes.
It was kind of like Geordie Barrett holding up Ronan Kelleher in the 2023 World Cup quarterfinal.
Just a really heartbreaking moment when you see a player held up like that.
But I still think France would have had enough in the tank in the second half.
There was also that sort of appreciation from the French fans towards the players and all the French players were holding hands along the length of the pitch after the game.
And it kind of encroached on the Ireland team huddle afterwards.
I think they were happy enough to rub salt in the Irish wounds.
I think it goes both ways here.
I think France don't like Ireland.
Yeah, it goes hand in hand.
It really feels like the championship begins this weekend because the sun has finally decided to...
To kind of sneak out and everybody will be a little bit more excited to actually go to games this weekend, particularly in Gaelic games.
And I suspect the tenancies might actually be up around the country.
It's a perfect time of the year as well, particularly on the hurling front where everything really matters at this stage.
