[QUOTE="Swami, post: 92395, member: 13"] [SIZE=6][B]Autumn international: Ireland 38-3 South Africa[/B][/SIZE] [LIST] [*]8 minutes ago [*]From the section [URL='http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-union/irish'][U]Irish Rugby[/U][/URL] [/LIST] [IMG]http://ichef.bbci.co.uk/onesport/cps/480/cpsprodpb/479B/production/_98713381_murraycongrats.jpg[/IMG] Ireland scrum-half Conor Murray congratulates first-half try-scorer Andrew Conway [B]Autumn internationals Ireland (14) 38 Tries:[/B] Conway, Ruddock, Herring, Stockdale[B] Cons:[/B] Sexton, Carbery 2[B] Pens:[/B] Sexton 4 [B]South Africa (0) 3 Pen: [/B]Jantjies Ireland produced an impressive display to run in four tries in a convincing 38-3 win over South Africa in the first of their three autumn internationals. Ireland secured their largest ever winning margin over the Springboks and also their highest points total. Andrew Conway crossed to help the Irish to a 14-0 half-time lead, with Rhys Ruddock, Rob Herring and Jacob Stockdale scoring late in the game. Ireland have now won six of the last 10 meetings between the sides. The victory is also the fifth for the Irish in their last seven contests with the Springboks in Dublin but just their seventh in 26 encounters. Joe Schmidt's side lie fourth in the IRB rankings, one place above their opponents, but the gulf between the sides looks much greater on the basis of this match as the final scoreline represented an accurate reflection of the home side's dominance. Ireland will be confident of beating Fiji and Argentina in their next two fixtures, while South Africa must regroup for games against France, Italy and Wales.
