Ruled out.

Ireland have been hit with a double fitness blow ahead of the Six Nations Round Two clash with Scotland at Murrayfield this weekend.

Both Tadhg Furlong and Joe McCarthy have been ruled out after failing to recover from their respective injuries.

Furlong is nursing a calf injury while McCarthy suffered a nasty bang in training ahead of the England game with both players missing the opening round.

But in some good news, both Finlay Bealham and Mack Hansen are on track to be fit.
