Ireland U20s kicked off their 2015 Six Nations campaign with a seven-try performance and a 47-15 win over their Italian counterparts.

There were tries for Josh Murphy, Greg O’Shea, Rory Moloney, Zack McCall, Billy Dardis, Nick McCarthy, and Cian Romaine, while Ross Byrne kicked six conversions. Here are the best pictures from what looks to have been a grubby night in the town of Biella, on the foot of the Italian Alps, last night.
