Job Done for Doris and Co, Now It's All Eyes on Paris

At the Aviva Stadium, Ireland defeated Scotland 43-21 on Super Saturday, ending Scotland's title hopes. The final match of the tournament is tonight's France v England in Paris.
Van der Flier reflected on the squad's response to the opening-night loss to France, saying, 'We saw what they were capable of last week, so we had to be high alert, always switched on, we knew what their attack was capable of...' he told Virgin Media.
Ireland's scoring came from Dan Sheehan and Robert Baloucoune in the first half, while Scotland fought back with Finn Russell, Rory Darge, and Darragh Murray; Caelan Doris was man of the match.
Ireland on 19 points, cannot be champions unless England get a result in Paris tonight, France can retain the title with a win at 8.10pm, after Scotland's earlier loss.
Historically, Scotland last won the championship in 1999, and supporters will watch tonight's France v England decider on RTÉ as Ireland players rest, hopeful for a title win.
