Joe Schmidt’s defence coach is looking forward to the game but admits it will be a tough task for his side.
Farrell was speaking at Ireland’s captain’s run today at the Aviva as the final preparations are taking place ahead of their opening Autumn International with Allister Coetzee’s South Africa tomorrow evening (5:30).
The defence coach said that the squad has put in a big two weeks of training prior to the game and are hugely looking forward to get out in front of a home crowd.
