England’s hopes of a clean sweep in this year’s competition however ended at the hands of France last time out, going down 12-8 in Vannes.

All is not lost for Rob Hunter’s men though as victory against the men in green could hand them the Six Nations crown on points difference.

And for Morris, who plays his club rugby for Wasps at Adams Park, he insists this is just the impetus his side need.

“It’s been a great experience for me being with the squad last weekend and I would love to get the chance to play at Adams Park for England but there is a lot of competition for places in the squad,” he said.

“We’re all hurting after the loss to France but we’re focused now on an Irish side who are coming here with an unbeaten record.

“So we know the type of challenge we will face. It should be a great game.”
