The Ireland squad returned to training in Clongowes Wood College on Monday in readiness for next Saturday’s Six Nations clash against England at Twickenham (kick-off 2.10pm) with no fresh injury concerns arising from last Saturday’s 20-13 win over Italy. Andy Farrell will announce the team on Thursday morning ahead of the squad’s departure to London and, mindful that this will be a third game in succession, has to consider “whether we need a freshness to it or not”. Garry Ringrose had his leg strapped during last Saturday’s win and Craig Casey suffered a broken nose but an IRFU statement said the squad trained “with the medical team reporting no fresh injury concerns from the 20-13 victory over Italy”.
