    Having followed this group of lads pretty much the whole way through the tournament, it looks like the future of Irish rugby is really looking up! Great hunger from them!

    People are saying the Irish scrum is dominating the French scrum.. is there a catch or is that as impressive as it sounds?

    Jaysus, they're persistent at the breakdown, really causing problems. French look a bit lost now.

    Not watching, but the French lock and Flanker are off injured. That could have a serious effect on a team.

    However, we did very well vs a good English pack last week as well so It seems like a pretty good pack.

    We've had the upper hand in the scrums since the start.
