Overview

• Cian Healy, Conor Murray, and Peter O'Mahony, who have collectively earned 372 caps, will retire from Test rugby after Ireland's final Six Nations match against Italy next week.
• Saturday's match against France at Lansdowne Road marks the trio's final home Test and could bring Ireland closer to an unprecedented third consecutive Six Nations title.
• Ireland captain Caelan Doris emphasized the trio's legacy as a source of motivation for the team, while cautioning against letting emotions distract from their goals.
• The retiring players have been central to Ireland's rugby success, including five championship wins and historic victories over the All Blacks and South Africa.
• The match also features key individual milestones, with Doris earning his 50th cap and a much-anticipated showdown between him and France's Gregory Alldritt at No. 8.
