73 minutes in and Dupont still on.

Only four minutes left, still 13-15.
-
Ireland with a penalty in their own half with a minute to go. Kicked ahead for a lineout.

Ireland really need the experience and class of Murray and Sexton to see this home
Not sexton but definitely Murray. He was great last week and JGP has done a job but hasn't been anything special.
-
80 minutes up. A drop goal would win it for Ireland if they can get in range.
-
Ireland not getting over the gain line.
-
French turnover. Booted out. All over.
13-15. French win by the skin of their teeth.
-
France were a long way below par there. Ireland must be disappointed that they created so little with so much ball. Their attack didn't challenge the French defence much.
-
No better day to beat France but Ireland played the game in the wrong areas
Should have kicked the leather off the ball and pinned France back at every opportunity - hence the Murray and Sexton comment earlier.

Dulin named Man of the Match, I'd have gone with Marchand or Alldritt.

Colour me surprised.
Not sure anything would be lost by reverting to Five Nations.

If the tournament remains in it's current no crowd state then yeah, but I think I'd much rather a jaunt to Rome than to Cardiff to see my team play...

2 weeks to next game so good chance of testing negative before then.
