Match report

Brendan Fannings’s report has just come through so I’ll sign off.

Not the best game for the neutral, but Ireland get back to winning ways. They scored three tries and were outstanding in the opening 20 minutes, but they rode their luck at times and can thank their stingy defence for keeping the Pumas at bay.

I’ll be back on the tools for England v South Africa tomorrow. If this opening game of the weekend is anything to go by, we’re in for a cracking weekend.

Sure, Argentina were decent, but I can’t help but feel that they missed a great chance with Ireland slightly off their game.
