The Ireland vs England players ratings as Andy Farrell’s men beat Eddie Jones side 32-18 in Dublin on the final day of the Six Nations.
Keith Earls and Jack Conan scored fantastic scores in the opening 40 while Johnny Sexton kicked 22 magnificent points with Lions coach Warren Gatland watching on.
Late touchdowns from Ben Youngs and Jonny May after Bundee Aki’s red card proved to be just consolation scores.
