Ireland’s fresh charges have given coach Andy Farrell options to ponder for the autumn rugby closer against Australia after they comfortably handled Fiji 52-17 in Dublin.

Ireland produced a flair-filled performance after two under-par displays to trounce Fiji 52-17 in their one-off rugby Test at Lansdowne Road on Saturday for their first back-to-back wins since February.

Ireland immediately go on the attack at the other end and have a lineout inside the Fiji 22 after a ruck infringement. From that penalty, Fiji go wide off the lineout (which was almost overthrown). The athletic Salawa prevented a try with physical defence at the other end and he picks from 15 metres and can't be stopped with a powerful drive.

A dominant Ireland thrashed a disjointed and undisciplined Fiji 52-17 at the Aviva Stadium on Saturday, running in eight tries, three of them assisted and one scored by debutant hooker Gus McCarthy. The Six Nations champions made a stuttering start to their November series,

Jacob Stockdale, Jamie Osborne, Craig Casey, Ciaran Frawley, Sam Prendergast - and that's just from the back-line - had the Ireland medics working overtime in the Aviva dressing room afterwards.

Ireland take on Fiji today in their third Autumn Nations Series test at the Aviva Stadium. After defeat to New Zealand and an unconvincing win over Argentina, Andy Farrell’s men will seek an improved performance at the Dublin 4 venue.

The Autumn Nations Series action continues to roll on as Ireland vs Fiji is next up on the agenda for rugby fans.
