England's captain, Maro Itoje speaking to ITV on his first game as captain: "It's a tremendous honour. I grew up watching England and wanting to
play for England.
"But it is not about me, it's about the team and hopefully next
week we will be better.
"This is a tight competition and every point
matters, I am proud of this team and what they have achieved."

England's captain, Maro Itoje speaking to ITV: "I thought the first half was fantastic and we did everything we wanted to do. The second half we lost the territory a little bit and we struggled to get out.
"We just need to control the territory better and be more consistent.
"It's hard to tell what the exact reason [for the loss] is at this point, so soon after after the game. We weren't able to exit our half as quickly as we would have liked."

Matt Dawson 2003 World Cup winner on BBC Radio 5 Live
That was a hard-fought contest, a very physical, very fast game. That was top-level rugby. Ireland showed with their experience, how to utilise their experience.
That was a bit of a wake-up call for England today.

Mike Henson BBC Sport at Aviva Stadium
The bookies were bang on. They had Ireland by five in the pre-match markets. That losing margin flatters England however.
Tommy Freeman's last-play try came with the outcome already decided.
The inquest will focus on a period in the middle of the match in which the vistors leaked 22 unanswered points and committed a rash of individual errors.
