Frederic Michalak Good Quotations

We were following Scotland rather than playing our own game and imposing our style on them and mastering them. We have to have a good analysis of the game before we play Ireland and work out why it went wrong.

Fred's there on the bench and ready to play. But in fairness to Gerald, who had a good game when he came off the bench on Sunday, it's logical to give him a run out at flyhalf.

The mood is very good and very relaxed. However, having seen them play so well it has given us a little edge in training because the Irish are at the top of their form, playing very well and it's going to be a very tough match,
