Ireland head coach Andy Farrell admitted his team were “not good enough” following a laboured 23-10 win over Georgia at the Aviva Stadium.

Looking to bounce back from a demoralising defeat to England last time out, Ireland started brightly and had built up a 20-7 half-time lead thanks to tries from Billy Burns and Hugo Keenan. They also saw a Stuart McCloskey try crossed out for a forward pass while James Ryan felt he was wrongly deemed to have been held up over the line before the half-time break.
