Ireland captain Caelan Doris insisted none of his players had maxed out on their potential and his team had a lot more growth in them as they targeted ending the Guinness Six Nations with a morale-boosting victory against Italy on Saturday.
With up to 30,000 Irish supporters set to invade Stadio Olimpico under different circumstances then they may have imagined following a devastating home defeat to France seven days earlier, Doris gave an upbeat assessment of his team as they look to rebound from that Grand Slam-ending loss with their best performance of the championship.
