Eddie Jones's side ran in eight tries at Twickenham to register their largest winning margin against the visitors. Ireland crossed first through Jordan Larmour but Joe Cokanasiga, Elliot Daly and Manu Tuilagi all scored as the hosts built a 12-point half-time lead. England added further tries from Maro Itoje, George Kruis, Tom Curry, Cokanasiga and Luke Cowan-Dickie. Itoje capitalised on a loose Ireland line-out shortly after the break and the rampant hosts continued to increase their advantage as Kruis and Curry crossed in quick succession on a sweltering afternoon. Cokanasiga's converted second took the hosts to the 50-point mark as England, [URL='https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-union/49372709'][U]beaten by Wales in a lacklustre display last week,[/U][/URL] laid down a marker with less than a month to go before their World Cup opener against Tonga in Japan.
