Ireland will have no problem bouncing back from loss to England – Andy FarrellBy Ed Elliot, PAAndy Farrell is confident Ireland will quickly dust themselves down for another shot at Guinness Six Nations glory after their dream of successive Grand Slams was extinguished in heartbreaking fashion by England. While back-to-back clean sweeps are now off the table, Ireland will still win the tournament if they defeat Scotland next weekend in Dublin. “There’s not a problem at all about getting the lads back on track for next week. “I thought they were super tonight, I thought they were physical, they were challenging on the gain line and played a nice brand of rugby as well. “To cut a long story short, I actually thought that England deserved to win.”
