Ireland's James Lowe ruled out before crucial match

independent.co.uk — March 8, 2025 at 03:01 PM UTC

Ireland's Six Nations title hopes faced a setback as James Lowe was injured just before their match against France. He suffered back spasms during warm-up and did not play. Calvin Nash replaced Lowe, while Jamie Osborne took on a different wing position. This change leaves Ireland without their top two wingers, as Mack Hansen is also injured. Ireland aims to win their third consecutive Six Nations title. A victory against France would bring them closer to a grand slam, while a French win would strengthen their championship position.
