And then, yeah, that's the risk.
But I think that's the confidence in it that they're sometimes behind, you know, camp doors.
You would be feeling that confident, but you're not confident enough to say it.
Whereas now I think the Ireland team have gotten to the stage where they've had these big occasions that, why not say it?
What's the worst that could happen?
Let's poke the bear and let's see what we can do when we get over there.
So, yeah, they've earned the right to do it.
But I think Saturday night will tell.
Can they put their money where their mouth is and, you know, put it into action and really give France a rattle?
Yes and no, like they definitely brought a lot of new blood in.
So it's kind of that combination that it's the unknown quantity in some of their players that they brought in and who they put out.
There's still very much, I think France are probably at their most lethal in the unstructured play.
They will, you know, as we saw against Italy, they'll, you know, stay in a game.
They don't look like, you know, you think that you're, you know, oh, 7-0, you know, there's seven points in it and this is going to be a cracker and then they can just put the foot down.
They have the ability to just kind of turn it on its head in the blink of an eye.
And I think that's the worry for Ireland.
I think they've got to get the kicking game as accurate as they did against Italy, because what's going to be coming back at them in the back three that France possess will be a hell of a lot different.
But yeah, much of the same.
I think when a coach comes in new, especially after a World Cup cycle, obviously you're going to bed in new elements to it.
But a lot of it is similar in terms of their style of play.
