It was a good weekend for hookers as Ireland’s Ronan Kelleher scored four tries in their 71-10 win over USA this morning.

This is following All Blacks hooker Dane Coles four tries against Fiji last night.

Ireland fielded a number of young players as majority of their first team are currently with the British and Irish Lions.

The Irish ran in 10 tries against the US who were playing with 14-men at one stage.
