AB’s play 80+ minutes. &

ABs do their individual & team jobs error free (‘ish)  (unlike so many AB team since 2016). &

All the ‘critical V Ireland’ AB form mobile forwards stay on field for the 80min S.Barrett, Sititi, Savea, and Vaa’i swap with Cane when he tires & Tuipulotu comes on. Finau back up. &
