The Irish rugby team is concentrating after losing to the All Blacks in New Zealand
Ireland’s wait to win against New Zealand on New Zealand soil continues after the All Blacks secured a 42-19 victory in the opening match of the three-match series in Auckland on Saturday.
Number eight Ardie Savea scored on both sides of the break to help New Zealand avenge their 29-20 defeat to Dublin last November and extend their unbeaten streak at Eden Park to 47 tries over 28 years.
Ireland dominated the first exchanges and got a try through winger Keith Earls, repeating the feat with center-back Garry Ringrose shortly after the break and scoring a late consolation with Auckland-born Bundee Aki.
Winger Jordie Barrett scored a try and converted all six for the All Blacks, while winger Sevu Reece, midfielder Quinn Tupaea and rookie freshman Pita Gus Sowakula also crossed to help put the hosts ahead 1-0. .

James O’Connor burst into the Australian dressing room still with his dress wrapped around his arms, after being rushed from the elegant seats. He has put on his gear and boots in a hurry.
Optus Stadium looks well populated, with the temperature in adolescence low. It really is a great sports venue, although the far stands may be better suited to the more common cricket and AFL competitions held here.

The suggestion is that this is a lower calf problem that Cooper suffers from. So hard for the veteran ten, that he would have loved another chance to train with England in front of a large Perth crowd.

Sky Sports talks to Eddie Jones
A visibly excited Jones says: “It’s probably the first time we’ve had most of the squad together since 2019. They’re ready to leave.
“Henry Arundell has an exceptional pace and courage to attack.
“It’s a fantastic occasion. There’s a buzz in the city: everyone loves a showdown between England and Australia.”
His former England captain Dylan Hartley then reveals that Jones is more animated before the encounters with his compatriots, his “most fruity” language. Can Australia beat Jones’ England for the first time?

The launch is approaching
Much focused on the individual battle between Quade Cooper and Marcus Smith today, but it is their place in the wider patterns of Australia and England that can be decisive. Australia’s attack is overseen by Scott Wisemantel, as impressive in the same role as England at the 2019 World Cup, and will likely look to put the ball in Cooper’s hand with plenty of options on the line, encouraging your game creator to choose your runners. . I would expect Samu Kerevi to be especially accustomed to reaching England’s 10-12 Axis of Smith and Owen Farrell, who have had limited time in the England camp with Farrell’s injury and Covid’s problems during the last 12 months approximately.
Oh wait – Maybe Quade Cooper has gotten a little overheated. We will be watching.

Australia vs England: Dave Rennie alongside the Wallabies
The head coach of Australia tells Sky Sports: “To be competitive we have to go through the middle and be direct. We have a good maul.
“We are very focused on what we have been doing. We’ve only spent a couple of weeks together, but we come in with a pretty simple game plan and if we can execute it we’ll have a good shout out. I have certainly not lost the history between Australia and England in any sport. “

Australia vs England
Sky Sports is rightly devoting part of its preparation time to a discussion of Luther Burrell’s interview on Mail on Sunday last weekend, in which the former England midfielder described his experiences of racism in rugby, describing it as ‘abundant’. . All credit to Burrell for being prepared to speak openly, and to Courtney Lawes she would like those who abused her former teammate to be outdone.

Team news – England
Eddie Jones considers that he did not have up to fifteen potential tourists when he appointed his team to Australia, so he talks about the depth of English rugby that is able to bring together what appears to be a strong starting fifteen that has been ( for once) cordially received by the followers.
Back from the cold are Billy Vunipola, influential throughout the year in Saracens after the fall of autumn, and Danny Care, finally rewarded for his resurgence at the end of his career with Jones interested in his ability to attack. with fast ball. Care joins clubmate Marcus Smith, who starts Owen Farrell for the second time with England.
Farrell has returned after an injury, but is no longer captain; Courtney Lawes did her homework well during the Six Nations and retains the role. This is a huge series for Will Stuart with Kyle Sinckler among the absentees, while the bench has a youthful look, especially between the sides: Jack van Poortvliet, Guy Porter and Henry Arundell debut all eyes.
England: Steward; Nowell, Marchant, Farrell, Cokanasiga; Smith, Care; Genge, George, Stuart; Itoje, Turó; Lawes, Curry, B Vunipola.
Substitutions: Cowan-Dickie, M Vunipola, Heyes, Chessum, Ludlam; Van Poortvliet, Porter, Arundell.
