Conor Murray says it is on Ireland’s players to put in an 80-minute performance against Scotland this Saturday and atone for their poor second-half outing against Georgia.

Ireland bring a six-game international window to close at Aviva Stadium this weekend with an Autumn Nations Cup third-place play-off against Six Nations rivals whom Murray believes will be “licking their lips” at the thought of facing a side who only managed to put three points on the Georgians in a desperately poor second-half last Sunday.
