Andrew Porter has reached out to the stricken Antoine Dupont, but the Ireland prop insists that he did not do “anything wrong” in the incident that led to France’s captain suffering a serious knee injury at the Aviva Stadium last Saturday.
Speaking following Frances big Six Nations win vs Ireland, head coach Fabien Galthie said ruck clear-out which caused injury to Antoine Dupont was reprehensible, calling for Tadhg Beirne, Andrew Porter to be cited: we are angry;
Fabien Galthié: ‘We feel bad for Dupont. In terms of the action, in my opinion it was reprehensible’
In the end, they didn’t need either Dupont or Barassi to see it out. France saw Ireland’s good start to the second half and raised it a level. Their 7/1 split was a risk and it looked dicey at times, particularly with the injuries. But the bench did its job, as Alldritt acknowledged.
Tadhg Beirne and Andrew Porter have avoided disciplinary action despite France head coach Fabien Galthié launching a withering attack on “reprehensible” Irish behaviour after Saturday’s match.
