Ireland Squad Update For Italy Week

A 34-man squad has been named by the Ireland coaching team for round 3 of the Guinness Six Nations Championship. Joe Schmidt’s men travel to Rome to play Italy in Stadio Olimpico this Sunday (kick-off 4pm local time/3pm Irish time).

After being taken off with a knee complaint early on in Munster’s win over the Southern Kings, Chris Farrell has been reviewed by the Ireland medical team and is fit to train today. Garry Ringrose and Rhys Ruddock will continue their respective hamstring rehab at Leinster this week.

Meanwhile, Will Addison has some lower back stiffness that is being managed at Ulster this week, and Iain Henderson and Tadhg Beirne, who were both named in the initial Six Nations squad, have joined the group at Carton House this week.
