Ireland injury worries ease ahead of Wales clash

Ireland boss Andy Farrell looks set to have a full deck to choose from for Saturday's opening Guinness Six Nations game against Wales.

Keith Earls (strain), Josh van der Flier (strain) and Joey Carbery (elbow) have trained fully, while Tadhg Furlong (calf), James Ryan (hamstring) and Iain Henderson (ankle) are due to train tomorrow.

The forward trio have had their "respective loads managed to this point," said the IRFU.

The 37-man squad is currently at a training camp in Portugal, with captain Johnny Sexton set to talk to reporters tomorrow.
