Ireland's title chances are low, says Hugo Keenan

news.yahoo.com — March 15, 2025 at 08:01 AM UTC

Ireland full-back Hugo Keenan stated the team aims to finish the Six Nations without regrets. They face Italy in Rome on Saturday, needing a win and favorable results elsewhere to secure the title for the third consecutive year. After losing to France, Ireland is no longer in control of their title hopes. Keenan acknowledged the likelihood of winning the title is low but emphasized the importance of delivering a strong performance against Italy. Despite already winning the Triple Crown, Keenan believes Ireland can perform better than they have shown. He expressed hope that the team can learn from past games and improve in their final match.
