Andy Farrell: 'Ireland ready for everything Twickenham can throw at them'

Ireland have won one and lost one so far but a stiff test lies in wait against an English side frustrated by last week's performance and loss to the Scots in Murrayfield but one that boasts a daunting track record in this fixture in London

Andy Farrell has declared that his Ireland team is braced for anything that might come its way on Saturday as they look to claim a rare win in Twickenham and keep their slim hopes of another Six Nations title alive.

The visitors sit fifth in the table after the opening two rounds on four points. That's six points off leaders France but with Scotland, England and Italy within closer reach as the Championships passes the halfway stage.
