Ireland interim boss Simon Easterby has expressed his disappointment with France head coach Fabien Galthie’s comments regarding the Antoine Dupont injury incident in last week’s Six Nations game. <\/b><\/p>\n

Les Bleus won 42-27 in Dublin<\/a> to end Ireland’s Grand Slam hopes, but the France skipper’s serious knee injury dominated post-match discussion.<\/p>\n

Dupont was attempting to steal the ball in the 28th minute and was challenged by Tadhg Beirne, who then fell on to the scrum-half’s right leg as Ireland prop Andrew Porter joined the ruck.<\/p>\n

Galthie reported Porter and Beirne to the match’s citing commissioner and called their actions in the incident “reprehensible”, but no action has been taken against the Ireland pair. <\/p>\n

“Without getting myself into trouble here, I just think it’s the game unfortunately,” said Easterby.<\/p>\n

“No player goes out to intentionally injure another player. For everyone, or for the majority of people watching, looking at it afterwards, everyone felt like it was a rugby incident which was really unfortunate.<\/p>\n

“No player goes out to injure another player, it just doesn’t happen. Whatever the insinuations were from different people post-game, it’s disappointing because the unfortunate thing is people who don’t really understand the game pick up on it.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
