Ireland captain Caelan Doris refused to hide from the harsh realities his side faced after a bruising Thursday night trip to Paris. In what was as chastening an opening to a championship as Ireland have had for some time, Andy Farrell's side suffered a 22-point defeat to a French side that were mostly rampant at the Stade de France.
