Following Andy Farrell’s Ireland selection to take on a resurgent Argentina in their second Autumn Nations Series Test, here are our winners and losers.
Winners
Cian Healy
Veteran loosehead prop Cian Healy is the big winner this week, as he looks set to equal Brian O’Driscoll’s record of 133 caps. The Leinsterman has been a fantastic servant to Ireland over his international career and is still proving to be a vital part of this Ireland squad after 17 years. To contextualise his career, and apologies in advance, debutant Sam Prendergast was just four years old when Healy made his Test debut back in 2007, which just shows the longevity of his career at the highest level.

Losers
