Another Ireland kickable penalty… but they kick to the corner… they want tries!

France turnover penalty…
Halftime
I hear Ireland has to win the match by at least 7 points, to win the SIX Nations.

This side they are saying Ireland need to win by 6. That would put then equal on log points and points difference with England . It then goes down to number of tries scored and since Ireland scored that first try they have exceeded England on that score

Still a lot of rugby to play but Ireland may regret not taking those 3 points if they end up winning by 3 but without a bonus point
Goooooo Ireland!

Ireland keep attacking… but the French defence has been good.
