England
ELLIOT DALY 8: Scored ninth try from last 19 Tests. Disappointed to be beaten late on
JOE COKANASIGA 7: Had a tough day last week, but he scored a delightful brace here
MANU TUILAGI 8: So effective, starting outside the Ford/Farrell axis for the first time
OWEN FARRELL 8: Captaining England for 13th time, kicked well from his centre role
JONNY MAY 7: Confidence is high, as evidenced by an array of jinking runs
GEORGE FORD 8: Smooth. Excellent offloads for two tries and sumptuous kicking
BEN YOUNGS 6: Rusty. A worry for Eddie Jones, given lack of scrum-half options
JOE MARLER 7: Held his part up in the scrum as he resumes Test level speed
JAMIE GEORGE 7: Saracens stalwart was solid in the lineout & worked hard in the loose
KYLE SINCKLER 8: Brilliant offload for try. His desire to hit Japan running is obvious
MARO ITOJE 9: Felt like the second-rower was everywhere for England. Totemic
GEORGE KRUIS 8: Put real pressure on Ireland’s throw, scored a try but sin-binned
TOM CURRY 8: Sin-binned the last time the sides met, he really was on a mission
SAM UNDERHILL 7: First Test since November marked with devastating chop tackles
BILLY VUNIPOLA 8: Hitting top speed in his third warm-up game on the spin
Replacements: Luke Cowan-Dickie 7, Willi Heinz 6, Courtney Lawes 6, Mark Wilson 7, Mako Vunipola 7, Piers Francis 6, Joe Marchant 6
Ireland
ROB KEARNEY 6: Creative in attack early on, but too easily beaten in broken field
JORDAN LARMOUR 6: Touched down the opening try. Struggled when wing targeted
GARRY RINGROSE 5: After a disappointing Six Nations, he was fairly anonymous
BUNDEE AKI 5: Late try, but a consolation as he seemed to be at sea defensively
JACOB STOCKDALE 6: Trademark chip made opening try, but badly exposed in defence
ROSS BYRNE 6: A torrid first Test start. Initially looked good, but wilted
CONOR MURRAY 6: A poor start and then an HIA made it a day to forget
CIAN HEALY 6: Limped out with a right ankle injury just before the break
RORY BEST 5: Not the performance the skipper wanted after his 37th birthday
TADHG FURLONG 6: A bit more like it from tight-head, who dipped in form last season
IAIN HENDERSON 6: Some strong mauling work, but can make more of an impact
JEAN KLEYN 5: Only his second cap, it showed. Work to do to get to Japan
PETER O’MAHONY 5: Loves playing England, but failed to dominate at lineout
JOsh VAN DER FLIER 6: Tough afternoon’s work in the heat against two opensides
CJ STANDER 5: Pressure on World Cup starting spot after a poor display
Replacements: Jack McGrath 6; Luke McGrath 5; Andrew Porter 6; Sean Cronin 6; Devin Toner 6; Jack Carty 5; Andrew Conway 5; Tadhg Beirne 6
