Women: Same again, again for Ireland v France

These team announcements are getting easier and easier to write as Ireland Women once again name an unchanged side for this Friday’s match against France at Ashbourne RFC. KO 7:30pm.

It’s testament to the strength and conditioning work carried out with the Ireland Women’s squad over the last few seasons that Philip Doyle can call on the same 23 for the third week in a row but their reserves of strength will be pushed to the limit against a robust and improving French side who currently sit in second place, two points behind Ireland.

The French have improved dramatically this season after opening their Six Nations campaign with an erratic display in their 13 – 12 defeat to Italy. They got their campaign back on track with a comprehensive 32 – 0 win over Wales which they followed up with an impressive 20 – 30 win against England at Twickenham making this a match between the two form teams in this seasons championship.

Both sides have played some highly entertaining rugby . . .
