    A bit of breaking team news as Ireland are forced into a late change at hooker.

    Captain Rory Best missed the team's final run-out yesterday with a stomach bug and has not recovered sufficiently.

    Munster's Niall Scannell steps up with James Tracey promoted to the replacements' bench.

    The pre-tournament script had Joe Schmidt's side facing England in a winner-takes-all final-round decider in Dublin on St Patricks' weekend.

    It could still happen.

    But Ireland need to get the wagon back on the road after an opening-round defeat to Scotland.

    Only twice has a team lost their opening match and gone on to win the championship, a shock defeat against Italy this afternoon and it really will be curtains to their hopes.

    Forty years have passed between the two quotes.

    Forty years which have seen professionalism's introduction, players' globalisation and political devolution.

    Is Wales v England now just another game? Or is it still a little bit more than that?

    I think even Eddie Jones, deep down, knows the answer to that.

    "They've taken our coal, our water, our steel. They buy our houses and they only live in them for a fortnight every 12 months. 

    "What have they given us? Absolutely nothing. We've been exploited, controlled and punished by the English and that's who you are playing this afternoon." 

    Wales fly-half and captain Phil Bennett in 1977.
