Grand Slam-chasing Ireland, who play at Twickenham on Saturday before completing their campaign at home to Scotland seven days later, reported a clean bill of health ahead of holding a more physical training session on Wednesday. “We were all on the field today, it was great,” scrum coach John Fogarty told reporters. “Again, they are on the road to recovery, training on the field today live was important for them. “We want to get as live as possible, ready for what’s going to be a huge test in Twickenham.”
