Irish internationals Jonathan Sexton, Jamie Heaslip, Tomas O’Leary and Jerry Flannery and rugby pundit Frankie Sheahan give their views ahead of Ireland’s clash with France this weekend.

After making hard work of Italy last Saturday, Ireland take on the might of France this weekend at the Aviva Stadium in what could be one of the most crucial encounters in determining the destination of this year’s trophy.

Jamie Heaslip comes in for Denis Leamy in the only change to the starting XV from the Italy game as Ireland look to take what would be a quite significant scalp in their first ever Six Nations game at the Aviva Stadium.

It certainly won’t be an easy task, something that is not lost on the current group of Irish players. Check out the video above to hear the views of Jonathan Sexton, Jamie Heaslip, Tomas O’Leary, Jerry Flannery and Frankie Sheahan on Sunday’s clash.
