Andy Farrell pulled no punches with his assessment of Ireland’s performance in making hard work of defeating 14-man Fiji 35-17 at Aviva Stadium on Saturday.

Head coach Farrell had made nine changes and one positional switch to the team which had started the previous week’s 19-16 win over world champions South Africa to kick off the November homestand in Dublin. Ireland did continue their winning run this autumn and have a chance to close out a highly successful 2022 with another victory when Australia visit the Aviva next Saturday.
