We go again.
The Ireland coaching group will reassemble the squad today at the IRFU High-Performance Centre at the Sport Ireland Campus in west Dublin as preparations begin for the Guinness Series and Autumn Nations Cup fixtures.
Ireland will play Wales at home on Friday 13th November and then travel to London to play England at Twickenham on Saturday 21st November. The following Sunday, Ireland will host Georgia at the Aviva Stadium and will complete the series of international fixtures on Saturday 5th December against either Fiji, France, Italy or Scotland.
Kieran Marmion and Quinn Roux will be available to Connacht this week and join the national squad on Sunday. Jack Conan was rehabbing an issue in the camp that hasn’t settled so will return to Leinster to continue his rehab programme.
All games will be televised on RTE and Channel 4.
