Paterson: Irish more than a two man team

SCOTLAND star Chris Paterson has described Ireland as one of the best sides in world rugby - and has warned his team-mates that this afternoon’s opponents are much more than a two-man team - namely centres Brian O’Driscoll and Gordon D’Arcy.

Scotland would seem to have a much-improved chance of building on last weekend’s performance in France.

Even so, Paterson knows there is more to the Irish than their first-choice centre pairing.
