Carolan in a happy place and ready for huge England battle

Yesterday brought confirmation of an unaltered side from the one that accounted for France, ahead of tomorrow’s Six Nations encounter with England on Donnybrook’s 4G pitch.
The surprise-value of that was nil. Ireland pierced the French try line four times in a 37-20 win. to add to an even more convincing start in Italy. But Carolan was in the cautionary mode typical of coaches in public.
