Complex permutations may come into play if Andy Farrell’s men do not win or draw the crunch Pool B clash at Stade de France. Catt says Ireland’s coaches are fully aware of the permutations but, unsurprisingly, gave short shrift to the notion his side are in “cahoots” with the Scots. “I don’t know what to say about that,” he replied, when asked about Nienaber’s match-fixing comment. If you asked any player in this room, any of us, would they want Scotland to beat you by 21 points? “He’s fine, he’s trained fully with us this morning so we’re happy with how he’s progressed,” Catt said of Leinster lock Ryan.

By Cillian Sherlock, PACriminal law practitioners have protested outside courts across the country as part of a nationwide strike over fees. It follows The Bar of Ireland’s recommendation of a one-day withdrawal of service for criminal law barristers. Criminal barristers say their fees remain below 2002 levels in nominal terms, following a range of cuts applied during the financial crisis. They say the 2008 government also unilaterally broke the link between fees paid to barristers with increases applied under public sector pay agreements in 2008. More than 100 barristers gathered outside the Criminal Courts of Justice in Dublin on Tuesday morning as part of the action.
