Ireland face a quarter-final showdown with New Zealand in Paris.

“I think all the players will agree that the standards he sets raise everyone else’s game and he’s almost like having another coach on the pitch.“He seems to have a bird’s-eye view, he seems to see everything regardless of where you were and catches any mistake. With plenty on the line this weekend, suggestions of a spying scandal were downplayed after a photographer, who has been working on behalf of the Irish Rugby Football Union, attended a New Zealand training session open to members of the media.
