DUBLIN (Reuters) - Ireland have a "bit of fixing to do" if they want to keep their Six Nations Grand Slam bid on course against England after a comfortable but not entirely satisfactory 31-7 victory over Wales on Saturday, coach Andy Farrell said.

Although Ireland made it three bonus point wins from three and boast a plus-81 points difference that shows their dominance, Farrell said his side would be "licking their wounds a little bit" watching the remaining weekend action.
