Ireland head coach Scott Bemand has made one change to his starting XV for Saturday’s Women’s Six Nations trip to France.

The only alteration from the line-up that started last week’s resounding 57-20 win over Italy in Galway sees Dorothy Wall replace Ruth Campbell in the second row.

On the bench, Eilis Cahill is named as the back-up tight-head prop as Sadhbh McGrath drops out of the squad.

Ireland are aiming for a first away Women’s Six Nations win over France and are also hoping to avenge last year’s World Cup quarter-final defeat by Les Bleues.
