Ireland captain Nichola Fryday has backed teenage out-half Dannah O’Brien to face down Les Bleus with some French-style rugby of her own.

The Carlow 19-year-old has been handed her first Six Nations start in only her fourth cap as Ireland face the daunting task of getting their campaign back on track against France at Musgrave Park.
