We're in a rebuilding phase.

But the big thing for me isn't so much the players, but is AF the man to lead us forward.

In Freddie burns’s defence Sexton would have missed one of those place kicks as well.

Freddie Burns, Jesus Mary and Joseph.

Sure. We have much better options at 9:

Cooney
Marmion
Blade

Casey is not (yet) international standard 9. Those guys are and offer us more.

Ah no I said more than just he's not good enough. You said he's not the answer those guys are not options because they are not in the team. He's got bags of talent. He may not be the best option right now but youve given no actual reason why.

I see the match threads are becoming as unreadable as the main Ireland thread.

Come on Ireland.

I don't think any player has been bad. We've a lot of lads actually excelling. Set piece has been excellent and our pressure game on point.

But as soon as the ball goes past 10 we look clueless. We're wasting the abilities of some very gifted outside backs.

Blue raw useless hahaha

Our scrum and lineout are clearly on top.

We need to play 10 man rugby to have a chance here.

France will have us for breakfast in fast open play

Here we go

Got lucky there

Lowe has a strange kicking style.

Fichou playing well.

Jesus Christ

Got out of jail

I see sheep

France are too good for us I'm afraid.

Poor from Herring

lawrencesummers

Herring providing the turnstile

Dupont passes into his own players head.

Definitely should be dropped for that.

Clareman

If JGP did that he'd be lynched here

KH25

Herring looks so slow in open play compared to the rest of the players on the pitch.

Big opportunity now for Byrne.

lawrencesummers

All from a terrible clearance kick from Lowe

Experience and a proven track record. Not saying he won’t get there, he is great and has a long career ahead of him.

Why in your opinion should he be in the squad vs the others mentioned?

Ross Byrne now.

You'll get what you wanted.

Herring had to watch Dupont peeling, that break was on JVDF
