Against Ireland I'd rather have reliability and solid players than unreliable ones that can occassionally produce that x factor. Nowell for May is the right choice IMO, especially with how much the Irish like the kick chase on the wings. I trust Nowell to handle it better than May.

I think we may need to play the possession game and ensure Ireland can't get their grubby mitts on the ball. Really don't think we could win the kicking game.
