"Ruaidhri O'Connor: They're a team who look like they have lost their way to a degree, low on belief, early in their season and paying the price for the dual-focus of the Lions over the last year. There's a lack of flow in their game, their passing isn't sharp and their lineout is poor. Lots to fix."

Ireland's team appears to have lost its way to a degree. The squad shows low belief and seems to be early in its season. The team is paying the price for the dual-focus on the Lions over the past year. There is a lack of flow in attack and phases. Passing is not sharp and the lineout has been poor. Several areas require fixing, including cohesion, execution and set-piece reliability. Restoring confidence, sharpening technical skills and improving tactical coherence will be necessary ahead of upcoming Tests to regain consistency and competitiveness.
