Geoff Parling exuded calm authority as he looked ahead to Saturday’s “huge” clash with Ireland, refusing to downplay the scale of England’s challenge but also expressing a quiet confidence.

The Exeter Chiefs lock returns to Stuart Lancaster’s starting line-up for his second match prior to the Rugby World Cup, having also featured in the 19-14 victory over France at Twickenham.
