No Sexton is a big blow

France by 6-9

A 6-2 split for the French bench.

Very young 12 for France, Ireland have shown the ability to target inexperienced midfielders already

Oh I like this.

Pity don't get to see Jonny sexcrys face though.

Geez Gibson-Park is quick!

Hah, that was slick by Hansen. France made to look thoroughly stupid there.

Hansen in for Oirland straight from the kick-off.

Freakish start to the game. 17 points after 8 minutes.

France 13 Ireland 7.

Big French forwards bossing it so far.

The commentator persisting with saying ooontamack is getting annoying.

France 19 Ireland 7 going into half time.

France all class in the way the All Blacks used to be.

Miles Harrison saying anything is annoying

Great comeback from Ireland. It was 22-7, now 22-21 after a couple of Irish tries. Some Test this now.

France in again. The pace that they put on the ball is impressive.

Try France by the Prop Baille. Conversion no good. 27-21.

Harsh. He's a prop.

Big call from Galthie. Dupont subbed.

Irish penalty. They go for goal rather than the corner. Over. 27-24 to France with ten minutes to go.

Jaminet with the winning try for France. 32-24 with kick to come. Three minutes to go.
