‘Keep your foot on your opponents’ throat’: Ireland vow to learn after wilting against USA
The trappings of an enjoyable afternoon. A debut for 20-year-old Jemima Adams-Verling.

A minute’s applause beforehand for the late Philip ‘Goose’ Doyle, a poignant reminder of good times in Irish women’s rugby.
