    That's some cameo for Setareki Turagacoke in his second Test cap.

    On in the 58th minute, shown a yellow card in the 66th, scored a try in between.

    Cramming plenty into his weekend in Dublin...

    Mack Hansen

    I can barely keep up here! The highs and lows of international rugby for Setareki Turagacoke as he is sin binned almost straight after his try for playing the scrum half and Ireland take advantage with some patient phases before Hansen dives over in the corner.

    Prendergast misses for the first time today as Ireland approach the half-century.

    It hasn't been perfect but for a first cap against a real Test team in Fiji he (Gus McCarthy) has done really well.

    The scrum has been strong, lineout execution generally has gone well and he has carried the ball and made offloads - it's very well deserved to get the try.

    Setareki Turagacoke (con Muntz)

    There is the 19 year-old! Immediately from the restart, out half Caleb Muntz shows great footwork and breaks through the gap. He looks frot the offload and it is the big second row who is athletic enough to get there and finish it off. Two tries in two tests ain't bad!

    Gus McCarthy (con Prendergast)

    Debut try for the Leinster hooker! He has had a really solid debut and what a way to cap it off for the 21 year-old.

    After that maul, the youngster keeps his patience and dots down as his club mate Prendergast converts.

    Things are becoming a little bit disjointed but Ireland have a penalty deep in the corner after a Fijian infringement.

    Here comes the maul!

    Given the scoreline, the raft of changes and a bit of a rejig in the Irish backline, perhaps it's no surprise that a bit of the life has gone out of this one as we enter the final quarter.

    Just as I type, the most half-hearted Mexican wave to ever be seen at the Aviva Stadium quickly peters out.

    Ireland 35-10 Fiji

    Sam Prendergast and Gus McCarthy are no longer the youngest on the field as 19 year-old second row Setareki Turagacoke is on for Fiji.

    The youngster has not even played 80 minutes for his club Stade Francais but scored on his international debut against Spain last week.

    One to watch!

  9. Disallowed trypublished at 16:47 Greenwich Mean Time

    Ireland 35-10 Fiji

    Conor Murray has been operating on the wing since replacing Jacob Stockdale and he thought he was over in the corner but the final pass from Ciaran Frawley is forward.

    Another try goes begging for Andy Farrell's men but they are really pushing the envelope and that is an occupational hazard when playing like that.

    Ireland immediately go on the attack at the other end and have a lineout inside the Fiji 22 after a ruck infringement.

    Kitione Salawa (con Muntz)

    From that penalty, Fiji go wide off the lineout (which was almost overthrown). The athletic Salawa prevented a try with physical defence at the other end and he picks from 15 metres and can't be stopped with a powerful drive.

    Caleb Muntz adds the extras as we finally see some go-forward from Fiji.

    Tom O'Toole is also into the game on the loose head side and immediately concedes a penalty on his first scrum. Fiji put it into the corner and Joe McCarthy thought he had stolen it but it is another Fiji penalty.

    Bitterly disappointing for him [Jacob Stockdale]. He has done incredibly well to get himself back in the team today but his day has been cut short.

  14. Replacementpublished at 16:38 Greenwich Mean Time

    Ireland 35-3 Fiji

    Some concern for Richie Murphy as Jacob Stockdale limps off. Let's hope it's just a precaution as he is replaced by Conor Murray.

    Meanwhile, Cormac Izuchukwu's impressive debut is over after 50 minutes as his clubmate Iain Henderson is on.

  15. 'Great variation' from Irelandpublished at 16:36 Greenwich Mean Time

    Great variation again for that try, off the back of a lineout, options all over the place, just like the scores in the first half - really nice, direct play.

    Ireland 35-3 Fiji

    This is really lovely to watch as Ireland are clicking up through the gears. A beautiful offload from Jacob Stockdale to Ciaran Frawley allows the Leinster man to send Mack Hansen down the wing. However, openside flanker Kitione Salawa smashes him into touch.

    Nice moment for the Prendergast brothers as Cian joins Sam on the field.

    Playing for different provinces, it'll be their first senior game together.

    Not a bad stage for it!

    Be worth watching how the scrum goes now with Thomas Clarkson getting his second cap and Tom O'Toole, usually a tight-head, on the other side.

    Bundee Aki (con Prendergast)

    The try stands as Gus McCarthy 's lovely offload puts Bundee Aki through a gap to score. It could be argued that Mesake Vocevoce colliding with our Scottish official created the gap but the TMO was happy with it.

    Sam Prendergast is now four from four from the tee as he adds the extras.

    Bundee Aki goes over after some lovely hands but poor Hollie Davidson was taken out by a Fijian defender so she will need to check with the TMO.

    Sam Prendergast knocks it into the corner from a penalty but some incredible hands from Robbie Henshaw as he gets an offload away as he fell to the ground and was under pressure from a white shirt.
