There’s a comforting predictability about Ireland’s capacity to find a way to win, even when the performance feels like a mixed bag. Saturday’s bonus-point win over England at a packed Aviva Stadium.  Credit to all involved; the atmosphere was electric, and notably, the number of fans leaving their seats mid-game was markedly reduced. A small win for stadium etiquette, if nothing else.

England’s first-half strategy was simple but effective, attacking Ireland directly through the middle. The early signs were worrying, as Steve Borthwick’s side caused real disruption. Yet, to their credit, Ireland adapted well after the break, and much of that must be attributed to Simon Easterby’s influence. Whether it came down to tactical adjustments, the impact of substitutions, or England running out of steam, the turnaround was decisive and proved to be the game’s defining shift.

Caelan Doris, ever the dependable presence, endured a rare off-day by his lofty standards. A couple of missed tackles and some uncharacteristic handling errors punctuated his performance, though you’d back him to bounce back without concern. He’s earned that trust. Meanwhile, Sam Prendergast, the prodigious 21-year-old now taking on responsibilities once held by Johnny Sexton, was a mixed bag of potential and severe growing pains. His calmness under pressure was notable, but his decision-making occasionally veered into the adventurous, resulting in risky passes that didn’t always pay off. More pressing, however, was his goal-kicking. Several missed conversions allowed England to linger longer in the contest than they had any right to.

The numbers tell part of the story. Ireland and England combined for a staggering 60 missed tackles, with 33 of those attributed to the hosts—more than their previous two games combined. Yet, despite the defensive frailty, Ireland’s ability to strike when it mattered, displaying resilience and ingenuity, ensured the outcome never slipped from their grasp.

England’s discipline—or lack thereof—was also a factor. Seven penalties conceded in their own half gifted Ireland ample chances to stretch their lead, though their failure to convert more than three points from those opportunities was an area of concern. That won’t fly against France.

Still, Ireland achieved what they set out to do. The result may mask some underlying issues, but there’s no denying the potential on show. If they can tidy up their goal-kicking, tighten their defensive structure, and replicate the energy displayed between the 50th and 75th minutes, they’ll feel confident heading into the showdown with France.

Saturday offered plenty of positives, plenty of lessons, and, crucially, five points on the board. You’d be hard-pressed to ask for much more.

‘It gives them a bonus point in a competition where bonus points are important!’

Ireland’s Simon Easterby admitted that he was disappointed with letting slip two tries in the final five minutes, as they turn attentions towards Scotland.

The post Six Nations 2025 Fixtures: Full Schedule, Dates, and Kick-Off Times appeared first on SportsNewsIreland.

Interim Head Coach Simon Easterby has revealed the Ireland Men’s Match Day Squad, sponsored by Vodafone, for the highly anticipated Guinness Six Nations 2025 opener against England. The match kicks off at 4:45pm on Saturday at a sold-out Aviva Stadium in Dublin.

Caelan Doris to Lead Ireland Against England

Ireland’s 2025 Six Nations campaign begins under the leadership of Caelan Doris, who will captain the team at number eight.

In the backline, Hugo Keenan, Mack Hansen, and James Lowe form a dynamic back three. Bundee Aki pairs up with Garry Ringrose in midfield, while Jamison Gibson-Park starts at scrum-half alongside Sam Prendergast, who makes his Six Nations debut at out-half.

Ireland’s Forward Pack

The front row features Andrew Porter, Rónan Kelleher, and Finlay Bealham, with James Ryan and Tadhg Beirne locking down the second row. In the back row, Ryan Baird is named at blindside flanker, Josh van der Flier at openside, and skipper Caelan Doris at number eight.

Strong Bench Options for Easterby

Easterby has called upon experienced players for the bench, including the returning Dan Sheehan, Cian Healy, and Iain Henderson. Jack Conan and Thomas Clarkson complete the forward replacements, while Conor Murray, Jack Crowley, and Robbie Henshaw are set to provide cover in the backs.

Joe McCarthy is unavailable for selection due to injury.

Easterby: “We’re Ready for the Challenge”

Speaking ahead of the opener, Easterby praised the team’s preparation during their training camp in Quinta do Lago:

“We’ve had a great week of training, and the squad’s effort has been exceptional. The competition for places was fierce, and credit to those who missed out—they played a key role in helping us prepare.”

He acknowledged the threat posed by the opposition:

“England have a talented squad, and we know we’ll need to be at our best to deliver a winning performance. The energy from a sold-out crowd will be electric, and the players are eager to represent the Irish public with pride.”

Where to Watch the Match

Fans can catch the action live on Virgin Media One in the Republic of Ireland and ITV in the United Kingdom, with live radio coverage on RTÉ Radio 1.

The 2025 Six Nations is upon us, and fans and punters alike are gearing up for what promises to be one of the most competitive championships in years. With teams like Ireland, France, and England vying for glory and others fighting to avoid the dreaded Wooden Spoon, there’s no shortage of excitement – or betting opportunities.

Below, we provide a comprehensive betting guide covering outright winners, bottom finishers, top try-scorers, and more, backed by odds and key insights for maximising value.

Outright Betting

Odds Breakdown:
• France: 13/8
• Ireland: 7/4
• England: 4/1
• Scotland: 7/1
• Wales: 45/1
• Italy: 125/1

Analysis:
France (13/8) enters as slight favourites. Fabien Galthié’s team combines raw talent with tactical brilliance, led by Antoine Dupont. Ireland (7/4), chasing a third consecutive title, will be bolstered by fly-half Sam Prendergast’s emergence. England (4/1) offers decent value as a resurgent squad under Steve Borthwick.

Scotland (7/1) could be the dark horse, especially if Finn Russell delivers consistent brilliance. Long-shot bets on Wales (45/1) and Italy (125/1) aren’t realistic but might appeal to optimists.

Best Bet: Ireland (7/4) offers a good mix of recent form and squad depth. For value, England (4/1) could surprise.

To Finish Bottom

Odds Breakdown:
• Wales: 4/5
• Italy: 6/5
• Scotland: 11/1
• England: 14/1
• Ireland and France: 100/1

Analysis:
Wales (4/5) finds itself in a precarious position under Warren Gatland, struggling to rebuild after poor performances in 2024. Italy (6/5) has shown promise, including a draw against Scotland last year, but still faces an uphill battle against Tier 1 nations.

Scotland (11/1) and England (14/1) are unlikely contenders unless catastrophic injuries strike. Ireland and France (100/1) are non-factors in this market.

Best Bet: Italy (6/5) provides better odds than Wales and could claim the Wooden Spoon if Wales shows any sign of resurgence.

Grand Slam Winner

Odds Breakdown:
• No Winner: 5/6
• Ireland: 10/3
• France: 7/2
• England: 9/1
• Scotland: 13/1
• Wales: 175/1

Analysis:
Ireland (10/3) and France (7/2) are the top picks for a Grand Slam, with both teams having strong squads and relatively favourable schedules. England (9/1) might be a long shot, but a good start could give them momentum. A “No Winner” outcome (5/6) is the safe bet, reflecting the competitiveness of the tournament.

Best Bet: No Winner (5/6) is the safest pick, but Ireland (10/3) has genuine potential to achieve a Grand Slam.

Triple Crown Winner

Odds Breakdown:
• No Winner: 7/5
• Ireland: 6/4
• England: 9/2
• Scotland: 13/2
• Wales: 45/1

Analysis:
Ireland (6/4) remains the favourite to win the Triple Crown, benefiting from strong form and depth. England (9/2) is a decent underdog pick, while Scotland (13/2) would need exceptional performances to compete for the title. Wales (45/1) is a non-starter.

Best Bet: Ireland (6/4) is the most likely Triple Crown winner, but No Winner (7/5) reflects the tough competition.

Odds Breakdown:
• James Lowe: 3/1
• Dan Sheehan: 4/1
• Mack Hansen: 6/1
• Ronan Kelleher: 12/1
• Calvin Nash: 12/1
• Josh van der Flier: 14/1
• Caelan Doris: 17/1

Analysis:
James Lowe (3/1) is a reliable favourite, having scored three tries in the 2024 Six Nations. Dan Sheehan (4/1) offers exceptional value as a forward who consistently finishes from Ireland’s maul. Mack Hansen (6/1) is another strong option, known for his sharp finishing.

Ronan Kelleher (12/1) could be a long-shot pick, and Caelan Doris (17/1) offers big returns for a dynamic back-rower.

Best Bet: Dan Sheehan (4/1) combines value and consistency, while James Lowe (3/1) remains the safest pick.

Top Tournament Tryscorer

Odds Breakdown:
• Louis Bielle-Biarrey: 9/2
• Damian Penaud: 6/1
• James Lowe: 10/1
• Darcy Graham: 12/1
• Duhan van der Merwe: 12/1
• Dan Sheehan: 14/1
• Ollie Sleightholme: 18/1

Analysis:
Louis Bielle-Biarrey (9/2) is the favourite following his breakout 2024 performances. Damian Penaud (6/1) is a consistent scorer for France, while James Lowe (10/1) offers value for punters looking at Ireland’s attacking options.

Darcy Graham (12/1) and Duhan van der Merwe (12/1) are excellent picks from Scotland, and Dan Sheehan (14/1) is a unique forward option.

Best Bet: Damian Penaud (6/1) provides the perfect mix of form and consistency, while Darcy Graham (12/1) is a smart value pick.

Top Point-Scoring Nation

Odds Breakdown:
• France: 7/5
• Ireland: 2/1
• England: 3/1
• Scotland: 13/2
• Italy: 40/1
• Wales: 100/1

Analysis:
France (7/5) tops this category with their combination of attacking flair and accurate place-kicking from Thomas Ramos. Ireland (2/1) isn’t far behind, thanks to Sam Prendergast’s kicking and the team’s expansive playstyle.

England (3/1) could surprise with a penalty-driven approach, while Scotland (13/2) offers excellent value if Finn Russell and Blair Kinghorn are on form. Italy (40/1) and Wales (100/1) lack the firepower to compete.

Best Bet: France (7/5) is the logical favourite, but Scotland (13/2) is a great underdog pick for those seeking value.

Conclusion

The 2025 Six Nations is packed with opportunities for savvy punters. France and Ireland lead the outright betting markets, but there’s excellent value in categories like Dan Sheehan for top Ireland try-scorer (4/1) and Darcy Graham for top tournament try-scorer (12/1).

For non risk-takers, Italy to finish bottom (6/5) or for the risk takers Scotland as the top point-scoring nation (13/2) are bets worth considering. With fierce competition and shifting dynamics, this year’s championship promises thrilling action on and off the pitch!

Leinster’s Dominance and Munster’s Minimal Representation Spark Debate
The official Ireland squad for the 2026 Six Nations has been revealed, and it’s a clear reflection of Leinster’s dominance. With 25 players in the main squad, including both seasoned veterans and emerging stars, Leinster is by far the most represented province. Meanwhile, Munster fans may feel disappointed, as their contribution has been limited to just six players, despite their rich rugby history. Connacht and Ulster have solid representation, but Leinster’s supremacy is once again the headline story.

Leinster: A Rugby Juggernaut

Leinster leads the charge with 23 players in the main squad and two development players, highlighting their incredible depth and talent pipeline.
• Key Forwards: With experienced names like Andrew Porter (70 caps) and Tadhg Furlong (78 caps) alongside emerging talents such as Jack Boyle and Gus McCarthy, Leinster’s pack is a formidable force.
• Backline Brilliance: The backline features seasoned internationals like Robbie Henshaw (77 caps) and Hugo Keenan (42 caps), while younger stars like Jamie Osborne and Sam Prendergast signal the future of Irish rugby.

Development Players: Hugh Cooney’s inclusion is another nod to Leinster’s ability to nurture young talent.

Munster: Fans May Feel Overlooked

With only six players, Munster’s representation is strikingly low compared to Leinster’s.
• Key Forwards: Tadhg Beirne (56 caps) and Peter O’Mahony (110 caps) carry the hopes of Munster’s pack.
• Backline Leaders: Conor Murray (120 caps) and rising star Jack Crowley (19 caps) are the standouts in a smaller-than-expected contingent.

Munster’s historically passionate fanbase may feel frustrated by this limited inclusion, but their selected players bring significant experience.

Connacht: Quality Over Quantity

Connacht contributes seven players, including two development player, underscoring the province’s growing ability to produce international talent.
• Star Forwards: Finlay Bealham (46 caps) and Cian Prendergast (4 caps) anchor Connacht’s forward contributions.
• Backline Depth: Bundee Aki (60 caps) remains a key leader, with Mack Hansen (25 caps) continuing to impress on the wing. Caolin Blade offers scrum-half depth, while Cathal Forde is a promising development player.

Ulster: Steady Contributions

Ulster’s contingent of five players, plus one development player, brings a balance of experience and potential.
• Experienced Forwards: Iain Henderson (84 caps) and Rob Herring (42 caps) provide leadership in the pack.
• Promising Talent: Cormac Izuchukwu (1 cap) and development player James McNabney showcase Ulster’s emerging talent.

Leinster’s Supremacy and the Road Ahead

Leinster’s 25 players dominate the squad, showcasing their unparalleled production of rugby talent. This trend reflects not only their success at provincial level but also the strength of their academy system. However, with Munster’s reduced representation, this selection could spark debate among fans and pundits alike.

Mack Hansen has apologised following the sanctions imposed by an Independent Disciplinary Panel after his critical comments about match officiating in Connacht’s recent game against Leinster. The Connacht and Ireland star received a six-week ban, with three weeks suspended, and will miss three upcoming fixtures.

In a heartfelt statement, Hansen acknowledged his error and expressed regret for his remarks:

“People know I always wear my heart on my sleeve. However, after the Leinster game, on this occasion, I let my emotions get the better of me.

Upon reflection, my comments to the media were ill-advised, and fell far short of the standards I expect of myself, and what the sport expects of its players.

I want to offer an apology to the match officials for any distress my comments may have caused. Our games are built on mutual respect, and I didn’t show that after the game.

I also want to apologise to the URC, and I fully accept the findings of the independent disciplinary panel.

I love Connacht, and I love rugby. Moving forward, I will channel all my energy and passion into representing my province and country to the absolute best of my ability – both on and off the field.”

The disciplinary panel, which considered Hansen’s remorse and apology, also imposed conditions such as completing an officiating education course and issuing a formal apology to referee Chris Busby. Connacht Rugby has been tasked with running media conduct training for players.

Hansen will miss Connacht’s upcoming games against Lyon, Cardiff, and Glasgow. The province has declined to comment further.

The incident has highlighted the importance of upholding rugby’s values of respect and professionalism, a sentiment Hansen’s apology appears to endorse as he looks to move forward from this controversy.

Ronan O’Gara has admitted that his La Rochelle side is “suffering” and “in pain” as they prepare to face Leinster in the Champions Cup this weekend. Despite achieving their 100th successive sell-out at the Stade Marcel-Deflandre, La Rochelle’s 22-19 win against a second-string Toulouse side last Saturday highlighted deeper issues within the team.

The match, decided by a last-minute penalty from Antoine Hastoy, left little room for celebration. O’Gara conceded the performance could serve as a “wake-up call” with the team’s European ambitions on the line over the next fortnight.

Leinster arrive with momentum, aiming for back-to-back wins against their French rivals. They decisively ended La Rochelle’s European title hopes with a 40-13 victory in last season’s quarter-finals. Speaking at a post-match press conference, O’Gara offered a candid reflection on his team’s struggles.

“We Are Suffering”

“We will appreciate the four points,” O’Gara said of the Toulouse match. “But right now, it’s… it’s… like a defeat! It’s hard, right now. We need to change something. If I knew what, I would have done it already. We are suffering, our game is suffering.”

He continued, “We are not taking pleasure. But it can change. Everyone is negative, but it happens because success creates a lot of problems. And success is really in the past. We must stop talking about success. Real competitors stay united and work harder. That’s my goal.”

O’Gara took responsibility for turning the team’s fortunes around: “I’m the leader. And we will start that on Monday, Tuesday. Despite everything, we are in the top six in the standings. When we are able to string together a few phases, we will be interesting. It’s up to us to turn the wheel.”

Facing Leinster: A Critical Test

Looking ahead to Leinster, O’Gara acknowledged the urgency of improvement. “Leinster arrives on Sunday. Maybe this is the wake-up call we need. I’m not going to lose confidence in my players. It’s a difficult time, but in English, we say ‘when it rains, it pours.’ That’s how it is right now.”

Reflecting on his own mindset, O’Gara added: “Since my time at Crusaders, I see the glass half full now. But, at the moment, everyone, and me too in recent months, has seen the team half empty.”

A Demand for More

When asked whether his message was still resonating with his players, O’Gara admitted: “No, I think maybe it wasn’t a good message… The players and I have to give more. That’s the goal for this week. Maybe it won’t work, in four weeks or in four months. But the goal in life is to try.”

A key moment in Saturday’s win came after Valentin Delpy’s late dropped goal seemed to secure a draw for Toulouse. O’Gara praised his team’s resolve in the final stages. “What’s good is that when it’s super hard, they have the ability to hold the ball, to advance, to win a penalty,” he said. “Antoine was in pain; he continued to work and received the biggest reward with a difficult penalty in injury time.”

Fitness Questions and a Negative Atmosphere

O’Gara dismissed claims that the team’s fitness was an issue, saying: “No, I don’t think so, because we are much more ‘fit’ than last year. It’s another negative rumour that, like the others, is everywhere in La Rochelle at the moment. It’s normal—it’s a difficult period.”

He emphasised the need to move on from past success: “We need to work hard, to rework and to forget the past. We need to find a recipe to go for Le Bouclier (the Top 14 title), which the club has never done. But we need to change the atmosphere. The atmosphere is negative everywhere.”

A Determined Outlook

Despite the challenges, O’Gara remains confident in his team’s ability to turn things around. “I remember one Sunday morning when I was last in the championship. If La Rochelle is last, that bothers me, but we are… I’m not going to avoid the tough questions because we’re in a tough situation. But we are alive, life is beautiful, we will react.”

As Leinster loom large, the pressure is on for La Rochelle to rediscover their form and prove their mettle in Europe once again.

As rugby fans usher in 2025, Ireland’s fly-half scene is buzzing with talent. With Johnny Sexton’s departure from the international stage, the number ten jersey has become one of the most hotly contested in Irish rugby. From seasoned veterans to emerging prodigies, the competition is fierce, and the depth is deeper than ever. Here’s a look at the top ten Irish fly-halves currently lighting up the game.

1. Sam Prendergast (Leinster/Ireland)

Sam Prendergast has entered 2025 as one of the most exciting prospects in world rugby. His performances for Leinster this season, combined with his maturity beyond his years, have made him a standout candidate for Ireland’s long-term fly-half solution. Prendergast’s pinpoint kicking and calm decision-making have solidified his role as a key player for both club and country.

2. Jack Crowley (Munster/Ireland)

Munster’s Jack Crowley continues to prove why he’s considered one of the brightest stars in Irish rugby. His ability to control games with his tactical nous and creativity was key to Munster’s resurgence in 2024. Crowley’s growing influence in the Ireland set-up has also been evident, with Andy Farrell entrusting him in high-pressure scenarios.

3. Ross Byrne (Leinster/Ireland)

Ross Byrne’s consistency and experience remain invaluable to Leinster and Ireland. While he may not possess the flair of some of his younger counterparts, Byrne’s ability to guide his team through tough situations is unparalleled. His tactical kicking and game management make him a steady and reliable presence at number ten.

4. Ciarán Frawley (Leinster)

Versatility is Ciarán Frawley’s hallmark, but his performances at fly-half have reminded fans of his natural talent in the position. Whether slotting in as a playmaker at 12 or taking the reins at 10, Frawley offers Leinster a calm and composed option who can deliver under pressure. While injuries have limited his international exposure, his club form speaks for itself.

5. Harry Byrne (Leinster/Bristol Bears)

Harry Byrne has had a strong start to his time with Bristol, showcasing his creativity and flair for the attacking game. Injuries have been a challenge for the younger Byrne, but when fully fit, his ability to unlock defences makes him one of the most exciting fly-halves in the country.

6. Jack Carty (Connacht)

Connacht’s Jack Carty remains a pivotal figure for his province. His leadership and creativity continue to shine, particularly in tight encounters where his experience is crucial. While he remains on the fringes of the Ireland squad, his performances for Connacht underline his quality as one of the most dependable number tens in the game.

7. Billy Burns (Ulster)

Billy Burns has been a steady presence for Ulster, delivering consistent performances in the United Rugby Championship (URC). His ability to marshal a backline and distribute effectively keeps him in contention as a valuable provincial operator. Burns’ experience is a cornerstone of Ulster’s attacking play.

8. JJ Hanrahan (Connacht)

Now with the Connacht, JJ Hanrahan continues to show his value as a seasoned playmaker. His sharp attacking instincts and ability to execute under pressure have made him a fan favourite in Newport. While his Ireland days may be behind him, his influence in the URC remains significant. He has been off with injury for last year

9. Billy Burns

10. Sean Naughton (Connacht)

Sean Naughton, a rising star in the All-Ireland League, has turned heads with his dazzling performances over the past year. While he’s yet to make the leap to professional rugby, his ability to read the game and execute under pressure marks him as one for the future. Expect him to make waves in 2025.

Conclusion

As 2025 begins, Ireland boasts an enviable depth of talent in the number ten position. With Sam Prendergast and Jack Crowley leading the charge, supported by experienced campaigners like Ross Byrne and Jack Carty, the fly-half role is in good hands. This wealth of options provides Andy Farrell and provincial coaches with the tools to tackle the challenges of the year ahead. For Irish rugby fans, the future looks bright as these playmakers continue to evolve and inspire.
