Watch Donal Lenihan spell out the positives for Ireland in today's win

Saturday, September 19, 2015 - 06:25 PM

Former Ireland and Lions player, Donal Lenihan, gives his view of Ireland's victory over Canada.

The rugby columnist for the Irish Examiner says there were so many positives for Joe Schmidt's men in today's Pool D match.

Lenihan thought the centre partnership of Luke Fitzgerald and Jared Payne worked really well and sees it as good preparation for their games against Italy and France in the weeks to come.

Also there for the Irish Examiner was rugby correspondent Simon Lewis, who looked ahead to the Romania game along with Shaun Cronin from breakingnews.ie.
