Andy Farrell (above) will “not be happy” that Ireland finished runners-up in the Six Nations, but he will be satisfied at the depth he has built with the Rugby World Cup looming next year, former Irish prop Mike Ross told AFP.
-
The Irish had their hands - virtually - on the Six Nations trophy until Thomas Ramos grabbed it back for France with the very last kick of the tournament, to secure victory over England on Saturday.
Just as last year, the French were the only side to beat the Irish, a 36-14 hammering in the opening game.
Ireland could console themselves with a fourth Triple Crown in five years, after an impressive 43-21 win over Scotland.
