Ireland Power To Bonus Point Win In Murrayfield

A dominant first half laid the foundation for Ireland’s bonus point win against Scotland in Edninburgh this afternoon as a Sam Prendergast put in a Player of the Match Performance.

A try from Calvin Nash on 7 minutes was followed by one for Ireland captain Caelan Doris as Ireland built a 17-0 lead.

The hosts fought back with a try from Duhan van der Merwe just on halftime to offer a glimmer of hope which they tried to build on in the second half but tries for James Lowe and Jack Conan put paid to the fightback.
