Sexton: Australia Always Have Big Performances In Them

Summarized by: Live Sports Direct
 

Ireland captain Jonathan Sexton is not surprised by Australia's recent results. Australia lost two of the first three games of their European tour. Sexton has a won six-and-lost four record against Australia. Ireland play Australia in the Bank of Ireland Nations Series finale on Saturday. The 37-year-old playmaker is fit and ready to go after recovering from a dead leg he sustained during Ireland’s 19-16 victory just under two weeks ago. He was crowned the World Rugby Player of Year in 2018. He has been nominated for the prestigious award again.
