Photo: SportsfileThe Women’s Six Nations game in Galway on Saturday will be Scott Bemand’s 25th game in charge of Ireland and a running theme from his team selections has been to never expect the status quo.That’s in victory and defeat. For various reasons, Bemand has never named the same team twice in a row since he took over in August 2023. Some teams seem harder to get out of than to get into. That’s not necessarily the case for the Irish women.
