Ireland produced a great performance to see off Scotland in a convincing manner at Croke Park.
Two tries from Tommy Bowe as well as Kearney, Horan and Wallace all getting between the posts along with conversations and a penatly from the boot of Ronan O'Gara were enough to see Ireland safe from a battling Scotland side.
Scotland started well dominating much of the early pressure without much to show for it before some fine attacking rugby from Ireland soon opened up the gap between the sides.
The Irish lineout struggled early on often losing possesion but the it was backs who proved the difference, putting in an impressive display for Eddie O'sullivan's side, creating some great opportunites which resulted in the game winning tries.
