Sexton starred on his first competitive appearance since Six Nations Grand Slam success in March.
“His level of preparation to get his performance is something that I learn from and I will try and do and put into action. You always have to be ready.”
Record-breaking Sexton shrugged off his lengthy absence through injury and suspension to surpass Ronan O’Gara as his country’s highest points scorer at the tournament and John Hayes as Ireland’s oldest international. “Being in camp over the last 10, 12 months has been massive to be able to learn from him,” he continued.“To see the way that he’s been out for the last couple of months, the way he’s applied himself to training and the way that he applies himself to preparation and everything like that is massive.
“To be able to come on for someone like him, for myself and Ross to learn from him, and the three of us to be able to bounce ideas off each other is a special, special relationship.”
