Green Wave About To Hit Dexcom Stadium - Ireland v Italy Six Nations Preview

The countdown is well and truly underway to Saturday's Women's Six Nations game at Dexcom Stadium between Ireland and Italy.

It will be a historic occasion as Galway hosts a senior women's Six Nations game for the very first time.

Saturday will also see the first game of the new U21 Women's Six Nations at 2.20 between the two countries.

Ahead of Saturday, William Davies has been speaking to members of the squads and coaching staff.

William was in Dublin for the Irish press conference and he first spoke to Irish kicking coach Gareth Steenson.

William put it to Gareth that there was frustration with the performance against England.

Next to speak to William was Fiona Tuite who featured against England last weekend and she told William that Galway has a special place in her heart as her mother is from Oughterard.

William also got the thoughts of Ballinasloe's own Béibhinn Parsons who was excited at the prospect of playing in Dexcom Stadium.
