No French fears for D’Arcy as defeats lost in mists of time

HEINEKEN CUP POOL 6:

Depending on where you look it was either October of 1998 or close to Christmas in 1999 when he first pitched in for the province on the continent. However, it’s clear Stade Francais were the opposition and Stade Jean Bouin the venue.

D’Arcy only clouded the issue yesterday by speaking about how Leinster shipped 45 points on the day in question which, given they conceded 56 that first time and a mere 39 second time over, leaves us none the wiser.
