Ireland have entered cup final mode as they target silverware against Scotland in Saturday’s Triple Crown shootout at Aviva Stadium with Caelan Doris declaring there are no second chances for his side.

An 11-match winning run over Gregor Townsend’s team and the Scots’ lack of a trophy since their 1999 Five Nations title success will count for nothing in Dublin if Ireland are not at the peak of their powers, Doris said on Friday following his captain’s run training session at the Aviva.
