Madigan happy to prove credentials

Newly-minted Ireland number 10 Ian Madigan insisted on Saturday night that he was no “flash-in-the-pan” out-half.

And although he fully intends to build on his game-winning 15-point display, he did admit Ireland would be spending lots of time this week trying to improve on a few glaring deficiencies.

The second match of this tour takes place next Saturday with Canada hosting in Toronto and the team flew there yesterday morning to begin preparations.
