Joe Schmidt expecting New Zealand backlash

Ireland head coach Joe Schmidt warns his players to expect a backlash from New Zealand when they meet in Dublin, having beaten the world champions earlier this month.

Ireland head coach Joe Schmidt has warned his players that New Zealand will be out for revenge when the two sides meet in Dublin on Saturday.

Ireland recorded their first ever victory over the All Blacks earlier this month, ending the world champions' 18-match winning streak with a historic 40-29 triumph in Chicago.

However, Schmidt is expecting a number of New Zealand's players to return from injury when the two sides do battle again next weekend and is poised for an even tougher test.

"They'll come full-strength, fully loaded. Maybe we surprised them a little bit in Chicago. I read that they didn't really look back too much at the defeat to us before playing Italy this weekend," he told reporters.

"Well they have that game done and now they will look at us over the next few days and they'll have a really good plan."

Ireland made it two wins from two Autumn Internationals with a 52-18 victory over Canada on Saturday.
