Caelan Doris Returns as Ireland Faces France in Six Nations

Ireland's captain Caelan Doris is set to return from a knee injury to lead the team against France in the Six Nations on Saturday, marking his 50th cap. However, the team will be without key players including Mack Hansen (thigh), Tadhg Furlong (calf), and Ronan Kelleher (neck), which presents challenges for interim head coach Simon Easterby. Bundee Aki is expected to step into the midfield due to Garry Ringrose's suspension, while Finlay Bealham returns to the starting lineup. France also makes notable changes, with Romain Ntamack and Damian Penaud returning after previous absences. Both teams are looking to maintain strong performances, with Ireland currently unbeaten in the tournament and France coming off a dominant win against Italy. This match is anticipated to be a crucial test for both sides, emphasizing the rivalry between them.
