Speaking today, Conan explained that Ireland have since been told some of the penalty calls against them were wrong.“The referee has come back and said a few decisions went against us when they shouldn’t have, but that’s rugby and those things happen. It’s always a good learning curve and we’ll be better for it.
“We’ve done everything we can to get ourselves in position post-Paris [where Ireland lost] and at the moment, it’s all about trying to win this Triple Crown,” said Conan. “Whatever else happens, happens.“There’s nothing we can do about it at this stage. It’s about putting together the learnings we’ve had over the last six or seven weeks, trying to get the best performance that we can on the last day, and we feel like we’re evolving really nicely.
“We haven’t spoken as a team about it yet because we’re only just back in together now, but it’s definitely an area we’ll go after no matter who is in that position because you always go to put pressure on the opposition 10 to make the play early, to show those pictures early in the game. I’m sure there’ll be lots of conversations about it over the next few days.”
