Match report

France beat Ireland 62-20 in a game which saw several debuts for the home side and Ireland continue to make strides with a greater number of domestically produced players playing for the national side than ever before.

In front of a crowd of 400, it was a steady stream of scores by France in the first half, but a late Ireland flurry added respectability to the score line.
