Andy Farrell’s side could wrap up the Six Nations championship with a bonus point victory over England in London. Today’s early game is quite high scoring classic. Louis Lynagh has just scored to narrow the gap to 21-22 in favour of the Scots over Italy. England’s pack looks stacked with lineout threats, including Itoje, and bearing in mind the five scrum penalties the Irish pack conceded two years ago, they will surely go after Ireland’s set pieces. It could also be the biggest test yet of Jack Crowley’s decision-making under the duress which Felix Jones’s blitz defence will try to impose. As for Ireland, they make one change to the side that beat Italy. Hugo Keenan is fit again and starts at fullback ahead of Ciarán Frawley, who drops to the bench. Among the replacements, Finlay Bealham beats out Oli Jager in the tighthead slot while Frawley is the lone outside back given the 6-2 split. As a result, Garry Ringrose misses out despite being fit again, as does Stuart McCloskey even with his impressive bench cameos of late.
