    Ireland 0-0 Australia

    Ireland are awarded a free-kick from the third attempt and Hugo Keenan goes racing clear!

    He almost beats three men but is brought down just shy of the line and he spills it forward.

    So close to a wonderful try.

    Ireland 0-0 Australia

    The first attempt at the scrum has 16 pretty hefty lads in a pile on the ground.

    In fact, make that the first two attempts.

    We reset and go again.

    Ireland 0-0 Australia

    Sam Prendergast pokes a ball through and it flicks up unkindly for Noah Lolesio, who can't keep it under control and it's a first scrum for the hosts.

    Australia send it long to Prendergast, who pops it back inside to Hugo Keenan.

    Ireland keep ball in hand, and they've made some good ground to midway through the Aussie half.

    You look at Ireland's team sheet and it is really strong, Joe Schmidt back in town is a really exciting prospect so we have the makings of a great game and a really exciting atmosphere.

    Nick Frost plucks Sam Prendergast's kick out of the sky and the Wallabies have it juts outside their 22.

    Off we go!

    There are stories everywhere you look today.

    Which one will take centre stage come the end of play?

    Really striking just how focused Cian Healy was on not allowing the moment to get to him there.

    Eyes closed, taking it all in, but staying in game mode.

    To see Sam Prendergast get another go there, it is a great opportunity. He had an indifferent performance last week but to have Johnny Sexton reviewing the game with him, hopefully he can step up to the mark.

    Well, that's set the tone nicely with three rousing anthems in Dublin.

    We're moments away from kick-off for the final time this autumn.

    Joe Schmidt is renowned for his set piece, but I think Ireland will have too much for Australia today.

    That 150th game and with Joe Schmidt back it is very exciting. Australia have developed a lot over the last while and have had a good autumn. For Ireland, going into their fourth game, we will want to see as good and as polished a performance as possible.

    It's time for the anthems.

    First up, it's Australia.

    There's a great moment for Cian Healy as the record breaking prop gets to walk out with his kids after the starters and take in the applause of the crowd.

    That's a lovely moment.

    Caelan Doris and Harry Wilson lead out the teams to a huge roar in Dublin.

    This is bubbling up nicely as we get ready to round out a superb autumn series.

    No matter what happens across the next 80 minutes, let's not lose sight of the fact that Ireland have seeming done the impossible...produced a jersey that seems to be universally liked by everyone.

    No mean feat!

    What do we make of Ireland's one-off kit to mark their 150th anniversary?

    It's a 10/10 for me.
