Ciarán Frawley and Jack Crowley playing for Ireland A indicates that Joey Carbery is fit enough for his usual slot on the bench as back-up for captain Johnny Sexton. The backrow stocks look healthy, so the main call is whether to go with Peter O’Mahony or Jack Conan; if the former, Caelan Doris will likely be at number 8, the latter would see him shift to flanker.
