Ireland made the short trip from the waterside in Cape Town to the winelands of Stellenbosch for the second of their pool games in the World Rugby U-20 Championship where victory over Georgia will leave Willie Faloon’s charges on course for the semi-finals of the competition.

Faloon will have encountered few problems in getting his side grounded after their emphatic eight tries to two win over Italy last weekend as he knows that Georgia will be fighting for survival and will go into this contest boosted by the fact that they defeated Ireland the last time they met.
