    Sam Underhill con George Ford (76 mins)

    England win the ball back and replacement Sam Underhill is able to bundle over to give his side a sniff of a bonus point.

    The try music blares out over the Twickenham speakers. It seems almost out of place with the gap in score this big.

    13 handling errors for England today. I don't think you win test matches with those numbers.

    Ireland gift England possession back inside 10 metres but they fluff their lines again with a knock-on.

    That's handling error number 13 from the hosts.

    Henry Pollock brings that bit of X-factor but he's been schooled a bit today. I've never seen him so quiet. I'm in shock myself at how good this Ireland performance has been,

    Out of nowhere England are on to score as Marcus Smith intercepts and heads to the line.

    But the replacement doesn't have the pace to outsprint Stuart McCloskey who tackles the Englishman out into touch.

    McCloskey wanted it more.

    This is embarrassing. All the talk of winning the Grand Slam at the start of the tournament. With all the talent at his disposal it has to be Borthwick out.

    Ireland are looking like the Harlem Globetrotters. They never looked in danger. Irish people were coming here in hope with their backs were against the walls. What a life for the team.

    Ireland may not reach the 53 points France managed here in 2023, but they won't be too far off.

    An absolute destruction.
