The Irish and French scrum were a mile apart. Either way, France destroyed Ireland. The score may as well have been 100-10. You put out all these statistics which I don’t think were

When you make that many mistakes and incritical territory no less, you will lose, I don't care who's playing who. </p> To quote Mark Twain, “There are lies, damned lies, and
