Ireland to begin prep for NZ clash

Ireland kick-start their preparations for their second meeting with New Zealand this afternoon.

They'll train at Carton House as they gear up for their third November International on Saturday.

Ireland made history with their first win over New Zealand in 111 years in Chigago earlier this month.

Coach Joe Schmidt says they can't worry about an All Black backlash at the Aviva Stadium.

Meanwhile there was success for Ireland at last night's World Rugby awards.

Jamie Heaslip won Try of the Year for finishing off a well worked team move against Italy in the Six Nations.
