Kidney not reading too much into history

Declan Kidney is urging his men in green to concentrate on their own game and block out the daunting Paris atmosphere as Ireland take on France today.
Les Bleus are unbeaten so far this RBS 6 Nations and history suggests this re-arranged clash following a frozen pitch on February 11 will result in another France win, with Ireland last leaving Paris victorious in 2000.

Of Ireland’s 22 selected only Ronan O’Gara remains from that 27-25 victory 12 years ago, while their last win before that came in 1972.

But Kidney is not prepared to think about the past, adamant his players can get a result if they focus on the task in hand.

"Sometimes we think that we have to do something different when we don't," said the Ireland coach.

"If we play our own game, it's more than possible to get a result.

"Instead of trying to pull something special out of the bag, we need to concentrate and believe in ourselves.

"If we believe in ourselves we can get a good result."
