DUBLIN (Reuters) - Ireland got a bit of their rhythm back in Sunday's dominant win over France and will push to finish as well as they can after putting some of the frustration of a flat Six Nations start behind them, coach Joe Schmidt said.

Ireland outclassed a poor French side with a 26-14 scoreline that flattered the visitors ahead of a final trip to Cardiff next weekend where they could upset Wales' grand slam hopes and even win the title if results go their way.
