Bullish Bowe wants to drive on

Double try scorer Tommy Bowe has backed his team to put the smiles back on their faces in time for their next RBS 6 Nations encounter against Scotland this Saturday.

Ireland came away from Stade de France feeling disappointed and frustrated after letting slip a 17-6 half-time lead and the chance of a first victory in Paris since 2000.

Now, with just a six-day turnaround, Bowe believes some positivity can be re-injected into the Irish camp for the visit of Scotland.
