\nThe Ireland Women\u2019s team to play France in Pau on Saturday, 11th February has been named by coach, Philip Doyle. Doyle has named the same side that started against Wales last weekend.<\/p>\n
Unfortunately last week\u2019s test was called off at half time due to deterioration in weather conditions in Ashbourne on Friday night. A decision has yet to be made on the rescheduling of this fixture.<\/p>\n
Speaking ahead of Saturday\u2019s test, Doyle said \u201cThankfully after last week\u2019s performance, even if it was only forty minutes long, we are able to name an unchanged XV and bench for this week\u2019s game\u201d. <\/p>\n
\u201cFrance away is always a hard place to go and get a win but the ladies are in a good space at the moment and will take that into the weekend.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI am in no doubt that the ladies will put in a performance and raise their game in order to get where they want to be\u201d<\/p>\n
