Good afternoon and welcome to the blog. After last weekend's win over Argentina, head coach Andy Farrell spoke about how some players were eager to turn in better performances than what they produced in the opening test against the All Blacks.
"Most responded. There's quite a few of them that were disappointed with last week's performance," Farrell said after the Pumas win.
"I think as a whole we started the game well, our first half was pretty good given the opposition so the individuals were obviously up for that. I thought the subs did a fantastic job.
"It's big for Caelan. It's big being captain of the side. Even subconsciously, not that it's said, I probably put more pressure on him because of last week 's performance. I'm sure he takes a bit of extra responsibility for that.
"He's very good at taking on a challenge and relishing that challenge. He's as good as anyone at dealing at stuff that's not going well and making good sure of it. It's all good learning steps for us."
