Follow live text and BBC Radio 5 Live commentary as England host defending champions Ireland at Twickenham in the Six Nations.
Ireland only know winning. It's a pretty powerful mindset coming into it and fills them with confidence. It kind of reminds me of that Richie McCaw-Dan Carter side with New Zealand. That period from 2007 to the 2015 World Cup when they were just so, so dominant. It builds a bit of a flywheel momentum for these guys. They don't take anything for granted, that's for sure.
Andy Farrell won't let them take anything for granted. They're not fearful of going there now but they should definitely understand the history between the two sides. Farrell is definitely one of the best people to remind them of that. I haven't seen what the bookies are saying, but in order for England to win, Ireland have to go down to like 14 or 13 players and I think England need a couple of trick plays up their sleeve.
