Prediction
England have made a pact. "It's not going to happen again"
"I don't know what the result is going to be on Saturday, but as long as we fight and have each other's backs, that's what we'll be going after," Ellis Genge.
Sexton indicated the opening half against Scotland was one of the most physical halves of Rugby he has played. I expect the same at the weekend against England as it's the one thing they walk onto the pitch with and throw at us. Hopefully it's controlled and we don't see reckless injuries, Ireland may well be dipping far into squad depth for this fixture.
I don't see Ireland backing down against whatever challenge England bring - they've weathered it against France and Scotland this tournament, Saturday will be nothing new to them.
Ireland to open England up during the first half and their physicality to wane in the face of another harsh defeat.
Ireland 35 - 13 England
