Update 5.03pm: Joe Schmidt admits Ireland face a "huge test" of their squad depth in the wake of Robbie Henshaw's NatWest 6 Nations-ending shoulder injury. Asked how the injuries will stretch Ireland's resources, Schmidt said: "It's a huge test. And when quizzed on whether Furlong would shake off a hamstring complaint in time to face Wales, Schmidt replied: "Yeah, I think so. Iain Henderson could be fit to face Wales (Ben Birchall/PA)"Iain Henderson is probably a little bit ahead of him. Iain could have trained today but he's also played a lot of minutes so we're just managing him.
