Based on that one could legitametly argue that the pressure was on the IRFU
Presumably the out half exception for Ireland selection that applied when Jonny Sexton was at Racing will also be applied here and Paddy will be eligible for Ireland selection when he moves to Clermont?
Ah yea, I presume so, I mean I canât think for the life of me of any reason why it wouldnât.

Clermont is the home of Michelin tyres. Hopefully âPaddyâ will have a more plentiful supply of rubber available to him during his time there than he did in Belfast.

IRFU ended up paying value if their contract anyway so paying them for the season and letting them cool their heels was an option that was worst outcome for the players.
Jackson will need to tread warily in France.
