A 42-12 win, some well worked tries and a back three that could take Ireland to the next level - this was a good start to the autumn series for Farrell, but with far tougher challenges ahead.

We chat to former international wingers Shane Horgan and Andrew Trimble about the greatest back three Ireland have ever assembled, why Rob Baloucoune is so much more than a speed merchant, Baird the mould breaker, and how Ireland will cope with being down to their fourth choice number 8.

Plus there's Pollock the clown prince of Twickers, Casey's kicks and Team Of Us' silver jubilee.
