There's been difficulties between Finn Russell and Gregor Townsend going back a little while. Catastrophic news for Scotland. I worked with Gregor since twenty twelve, he's a Glasgow coach then, so fourteen years you're obviously gonna have a one, two, however however many bust ups it is. I think the f with the way that Finn has dealt with that is to his credit. He doesn't bear grudges, it's just it's been that's gone, move on to the next one. I'm Finn Russell and this is inner drive.

Now coming up, the fallout from Ireland's shock defeat to the USA in Tala yesterday, a mad weekend in the WXV generally, as France are shown five cards but still hold on to beat Australia, and Munster head into a new URC campaign with a spurned out half among their two choices for the Ten jersey this weekend. First up to Today, Ireland are regrouping after a bruising second half performance led to a forty points to thirty six defeat to the USA at Tallas Stadium yesterday.
So Scott Beam and Side were 17 0 up after 20 minutes with tries from Vicky Elms Kinlan, Kleina Maloney MacDonald, and Eva Wafer. The Americans did respond before the break, with the hosts still leading twenty four twelve by halftime. Captain Aaron King then dove over a rook. For a fifth try early in the second half as Ireland opened up a 19-point lead. But the US physicality caused problems all day for Ireland and really came to the fore in the second half. Ireland coughed up a slew of penalties at the breakdown, and the visitors scored four unanswered tries, all converted in a 15-minute spell. Three of those scores were conceded while Elms Kinlan was in the sin bin. Now King touched down with two. Two minutes to go to give Ireland a chance of snatching victory from the jaws of defeat, but the Americans hung on for their first win over the Irish since twenty eighteen.

this across the game at the moment. You look at how South Africa men play the game. So there's certain certain ways you need to defend line animals and against big humans. We're gonna have to be smart and clever and efficient and maybe even innovative with it. So it's a it's a it's a good lesson today. It's not solely down to the mall remember they got in there because they got they got big humans, powerful humans coming around the corner and ab were able to get momentum. So we I I think in the first instance we look at how teams get entries and the second instance is how you deal with uh you deal with a strong mall, you know, fair fair credit uh to USA. They got their more going today, didn't they? Um and we've got to be better at uh uh not not allowing them to get the momentum on their terms, so we've got to get more pressure on that.
From it it gives us a clear direction of travel. Um we've got the next two weeks where we go uh against Japan, um, who have a sort of style of rugby and what have you, and then then we're gonna go and face some big humans again in in South Africa. So it'll be it'll be an ideal opportunity in in terms of where we are in terms of this World Cup cycle, um, to add those layers to the game. Some some parts of it I'm really I'm genuinely delighted with. You look at um how the ball kept moving. Um you look at You would say today Ireland haven't solely relied on a kicking game. We've we've played our way into some some opportunities. So we we that will give us more layers to our game, more more attacking prowess.
Um we just join up a bit of tidying up with with uh some technical bits in terms of how
So it's a third win for the US women's team under Scary's native Jack Hanratti. The Dubliner took the reins at the start of the year after Sioni Fukofuka stepped down following last year's World Cup in England.
