Following the weekend action involving the Irish provinces, there have been several additions to the Ireland training squad meeting up in Carton house this week.
Gordon D’Arcy took a knock to his ribs and is unable to train, with uncapped Munster centre James Downey called up to replace him.
Outhalf Ronan O’Gara has a dead leg and is also unable to train, so the uncapped Leinster back Ian Madigan joins the squad.
Scrumhalf Paul Marshall comes into the squad in place of Eoin Reddan who was unable to play at the weekend due to a leg injury.
Prop Ronan Loughney comes into the squad in place of Declan Fitzpatrick, who is continuing rehab on a knee injury in Ulster.
Second row Mike McCarthy picked up a calf knock and is replaced by Leinster second row Devin Toner.
The final change is Simon Zebo, who turned an ankle and is unable to train. Craig Gilroy replaces him in the training squad.
