Johnny Sexton paid tribute to Ireland debutant Jimmy O'Brien - but claimed the newbie said he was "s****ing it", coming on in the first half against South Africa.
O'Brien was a 27th minute replacement for Stuart McCloskey and, while he has played his rugby for Leinster on the wing or more recently at full-back for Leinster, he was fired into the centre against the world champions.
The 25-year-old played well - and said that while Sexton might "be adding legs to the story", he was bricking it for a moment when he did get the nod to go on.
