The Hard Shoulder Highlights

"I don't expect many more upsets around the corner..."

Ireland will not be playing in the Rugby World Cup this weekend, having beaten Russia on Thursday, but there will still be plenty of action from Japan. New Zealand, France and Australia are among the teams in action, while the tie of the weekend will see England take on Argentina, in a game England coach Eddie Jones has described as a test of 'manliness'. Former Wales, Leinster and Ireland underage coach Mike Ruddock joined Ivan to give his take on another week of Rugby World Cup action, how coaches can influence a game, and what he expects for the rest of the group stages.
