Try time.
It’s been a decent day at the office for Ireland at the Aviva Stadium so far this afternoon, with Joe Schmidt’s men leading 19-0 at half-time against France.
The men in green have looked excellent so far and have showed some real signs of the Ireland we all know and love. Captain Rory Best scored Ireland’s first try after three minutes, before Sexton got over on the half hour mark.
Seven minutes later replacement Jack Conan made it three first-half tries with powerful finish in the corner. Sexton’s effort though is without doubt the pick of the bunch so far.
A lovely one-two wraparound play with Garry Ringrose had the Aviva Stadium on its feet. Beautiful bit of play.
