maul

Like they did in the first half, Ireland came flying out of the traps after the restart and scored within three minutes when Sheehan touched down in the corner from a maul.

He mentioned the Golden Gophers having beaten conference front-runner Michigan, their excellent help defense and their having mauled USC in the paint last weekend during a victory at the Galen Center.

"My initial thoughts were if the maul was going forward, I was going to join it and hopefully get my hands on the ball that way," Daly told BBC Sport.

But England's latest mauling in Mumbai showed McCullum now has the challenge he wanted.

He sped away from the side of a maul five metres out and slipped a pass out the side door to White, who had the easiest job to dot down in the corner.
