Murray Kinsella Reports from Pretoria ANDY FARRELL HAS a fully-fit squad to choose from for his matchday 23 to face the Springboks on Saturday in Pretoria.
With Jamison Gibson-Park missing the tour due to injury, Farrell has to confirm his selection at scrum-half, where Conor Murray and Craig Casey have been vying for the starting number nine shirt. “It’s a massive challenge for us to be away from home and down here, but our boys are looking forward to it.”
“Players tend to be on different journeys, some were out of things a little bit earlier, got a little bit of time, that mental and physical break, some guys pick up an injury during the year and they get their break there.
