Here we go.

Head Coach Andy Farrell has today named a 35-player Ireland Men’s Squad for the upcoming Autumn Nations Series at Aviva Stadium.

Caelan Doris will captain the squad having led Ireland in the Guinness Six Nations victory over Italy last February and in the Second Test defeat of South Africa in July.

Farrell has included two uncapped players in his squad for November’s four-match series against New Zealand, Argentina, Fiji and Australia.

Uncapped duo Cormac Izuchukwu and Sam Prendergast, who both featured for Emerging Ireland in Bloemfontein last month and were also part of Farrell’s Summer Tour squad to South Africa, will be hoping to earn their debut caps in November.

Additionally, Farrell has included five uncapped players – Thomas Clarkson, Alex Kendellen, Shayne Bolton, Jack Boyle and Gus McCarthy – in the squad as Training Panellists to increase their exposure to the National Team environment.

Peter O’Mahony is included in the extended panel and will continue his rehabilitation with Munster next week as he builds towards a return to action over the coming weeks.

The Ireland squad will assemble at the IRFU High Performance Centre on Monday, before departing for a warm-weather training camp in Portugal in preparation for the opening game of the Autumn Nations Series against New Zealand on Friday, 8 November (Kick-off 8.10pm).

Farrell’s side will then host Argentina at Aviva Stadium on Friday, 15 November (Kick-off 8.10pm) and go head-to-head with Fiji on Saturday, 23 November (Kick-off 3.10pm), before concluding the campaign against Australia for Irish Rugby’s 150th Anniversary Test on Saturday, 30 November (Kick-off 3.10pm).

Ireland captain Caelan Doris said:

“It is an enormous honour to be named Ireland captain and I am excited about leading the squad into battle over the coming weeks. I am very fortunate to have had so much support from my family and friends and many others along the way from Mayo to Blackrock and on to Leinster and Ireland.

“I am extremely proud to lead this squad and I know that there’s an experienced group of leaders who will work hard to achieve success in the weeks ahead. We have a special group of players and I am confident that there are bright days to come as we build up for four huge Tests at Aviva Stadium.”

All matches will be live on Virgin Media in Republic of Ireland and TNT Sports in the United Kingdom.
