Six Nations: Ronan O’Gara sees ‘TNT moments’ as the driver behind Ireland’s history bid
This was the 128-time Irish fly when speaking before Edinburgh kicks off, talking about how difficult it is to win home in six countries.
However, he believed that although Ireland had “another gear to go”, Ireland could have won the game.
“If you’re looking for formulas for how to disappear and win in six countries, I think you should look at that,” he said.
“From a minute, it’s ruthless – the president. Scotland has made no progress.
“Often in a test match, lead changes hands a few times and is in equilibrium.
“The biggest surprise was it was 32-18. It felt like a 40-point victory, maybe if Ireland needed it, I think they had a few more gears to go.”
Ireland will play France at home between traveling to Wales and Italy next month, and Ogala feels his old side has “absolutely a grand slam” – but he thinks Les Bleus visits Dublin It is the greatest potential stumbling block.
He added: “There was a game that jumped out.”
“In terms of player abilities, France has the ability to beat Ireland in Dublin.
“If they get the ” game, France has rugby and they might challenge Ireland.”
