Il faut presque se pincer pour y croire. L’Irlande, si sûre de sa force, dix victoires de suite dans le Tournoi, deux défaites depuis cinq ans à l’Aviva Stadium, s’est fait hacher menue par l’équipe de France, ce samedi lors de la 4e journée du Tournoi des Six Nations 2025.

Une victoire incontestable, la plus large des Bleus en Irlande, qui les replacent en tête du classement. Il faudra maintenant battre l’Écosse au Stade de France dans une semaine pour soulever le trophée et « se payer » enfin, comme le soulignaient plusieurs joueurs à la veille du Tournoi.

Il faudra faire sans Antoine Dupont, sans doute gravement touché au genou à la demi-heure de jeu sur un geste limite, « à mon avis répréhensible » soulignait Fabien Galthié après le match, de Tadhg Beirne dans un ruck.

Au relais du capitaine, Maxime Lucu a livré un match au diapason de ses coéquipiers : très juste, valeureux, engagé. « J’étais prêt à rentrer quand il fallait, je me suis bien échauffé pour ça. Ensuite, je suis juste resté dans la stratégie : quand on était hauts, on jouait avec les avants et on accélérait le jeu. Et quand on était chez nous, on cherchait à les repousser loin avec du jeu au pied et de l’occupation », confessait le Bordelais avec sa modestie habituelle.

Un surréaliste 34-0 pour les Bleus entre la 47e et la 75e

L’ensemble de ce fameux banc en 7-1 a d’ailleurs été décisif. Les Bleus ont en effet passé un surréaliste 34-0 aux Verts entre la 47e et la 75e minute, poussés par l’entrée de cinq avants dès la 48e.

Paul Boudehent (47e), Louis Bielle-Biarrey pour son 7e essai du Tournoi (50e) et enfin Damian Penaud pour son 38e essai en bleu, record de Serge Blanco égalé (75e), ont en effet martyrisé des Irlandais qui n’avaient pas été aussi nettement dominé depuis une éternité.

« On savait qu’on avait un gros banc et qu’il allait faire la différence… Et c’est ce qui s’est passé encore aujourd’hui. Donc franchement, c’est génial », savourait François Cros.

Soulignons aussi la grosse demi-heure d’Oscar Jegou, 3e ligne de métier, entré au centre après la commotion de Pierre-Louis Barassi. Le Rochelais s’est signalé par son activité défensive en infligeant quelques gros tampons et par son essai synonyme de break définitif (59e).

Pourtant, le scénario semblait loin d’être écrit au vu de l’entame de match de l’Irlande, qui s’est peut-être brûlé les ailes en démarrant pied au plancher. Un quart d’heure d’asphyxie totale ou presque pour les Français qui ne cédaient cependant pas un pouce de terrain.

François Cros, 15 plaquages sur les 20 premières minutes

Ça découpait à tour de bras (15 plaquages pour François Cros en 20 minutes), ça commettait quelques fautes de çà et là, mais comme à leur habitude, les Celtes privilégiaient les pénaltouches aux points. Mauvais choix contre ces Bleus-là.

Ils le payaient d’autant plus vite que leur deuxième ligne Joe McCarty écopait d’un carton jaune à la 20e pour une faute d’antijeu stupide qui mettait les siens dans le dur. Sur la pénaltouche qui suivait, Dupont envoyait Louis Bielle-Biarrey à l’essai d’une sautée petit côté (0-5, 21e).

Sans doute ont-ils cru avoir remis la main sur le match dès l’entame de deuxième mi-temps, avec l’essai de Dan Sheehan derrière un ballon porté (43e). Même menés 13-8 à ce moment-là, les Bleus n’ont pas douté.

« On n’a pas eu beaucoup le ballon au début, on savait que ça allait être dur. On a fait le dos rond, on n’a pas craqué. Petit à petit, on a réussi à reprendre le score, à inverser un peu la pression. On a commencé à les faire courir, à les user », décrypte François Cros, monumental d’un bout à l’autre.

Comme l’ensemble de l’équipe de France, venue gâcher la der à domicile des vieux grognards Peter O’Mahony, Cian Healy et Connor Murray, qui rêvaient évidemment d’une autre sortie.

Tout l’inverse des Bleus qui, eux, pouvaient difficilement rêver mieux.

Rieko Ioane to join Leinster in bombshell move

Yeah exactly. I wanted to watch the last game because I saw the headline that Nick had done an article on it. I saw all the same flaws I had come to expect cause NZ troubles at international level. He grubbered it through with two men unmarked out wide, because he doesn’t have the passing or vision to get it to them. He through a wobbly spiral that nearly got intercepted getting to space out wide after that. Even his little pop pass for a try was uncertain and if anybody else was their would have been plucked out of the air but the defence. As it was the guy went over at close range for a try, but like you say, we know from the past that he still would have made that wrong type of passing choice (should have been a simple yet firm double pump) against better defenses. There were a bunch of other minor things too, getting bumped off, all just in the first half. Not that he didn’t do a lot of Leinster of course, I just care about what he can do in black, and well I definitely wasn’t going to get any good examples out of a onesided contest like that so gave up at about the 33/35min mark.


I was so disappointed because I really do want him to develop and be able to use all his skills. I still remember really enjoying his audacity as a young fella to try things for the All Blacks. Things that when they went wrong got him unceremoniously vilified. I suppose he was another example of a player from that error mismanaged, or impacted by mismanagement, thrust into the starting role of a All Black fullback, mostly to allow Beauden to play 10. He really wasn’t ready at all to be used full time like he was. But I still feel that if he can just get to the right size he can make carrying the ball (and defence) his best attribute, and that will make it so much easier everywhere else. On the 10, what the 13 needs to be doing, and on himself to not require anything too special with the other options of pass or kick, because he’ll give himself so much extra time if the defence is actually worried about him breaking the line.


I was shocked to find the Jordie was Nicks main example for how well they’re playing LOL!

Defensive woes won't stop Moana Pasifika from being contenders

I’m Gina Kelleher, a 42‑year‑old marketing consultant in Toronto, and I’ve always been the type to research every decision down to the smallest detail. When it came to crypto, I moved at a snail’s pace: years spent gauging trends, making tiny trades, and monitoring the market minute by minute. By December 2024, I finally felt ready. I consolidated everything, $625,000 in Bitcoin onto CBEX.cx, a platform that checked every box.

One late February morning, I tried to log in and the site had simply vanished. No maintenance notice. No downtime alert. Just… gone. Initially, I chalked it up to an outage. But as hours stretched into days, the reality hit: CBEX.cx had crashed or worse, disappeared with millions of dollars in user funds. Online forums exploded with panic, and whispers of an exit scam circulated without confirmation. I was paralyzed. I immediately contacted lawyers, filed complaints, even reached out to other exchanges, but every lead fizzled out. “Crypto’s risky,” they told me. I refused to accept that as my final answer.

Then I found Morphohack Cyber, a digital forensics team with a reputation for crypto recovery. I was wary, how many times had I heard empty promises? But Morphohack’s transparency stood out. They laid out their methods clearly and outlined realistic expectations.

Within hours, they were deep in my case: tracing transaction trails, analyzing mixer patterns, and infiltrating shadow exchanges. Three days later, the call came: they’d located every Bitcoin.

By the first week of March, my full $625,000 worth of bitcoins had been restored to my wallet.

I’m more vigilant than ever now and deeply aware of crypto’s pitfalls. But thanks to Morphohack Cyber, I’ve also learned that help exists and sometimes, hope does too. If you’re facing a similar nightmare, don’t give up. Contact Morphohack via Morphohack@cyberservices. com
