Les blues.

Ireland have issued a squad update ahead of their crucial Six Nations clash with France in Paris this weekend.

Following their bonus-point win over Italy over the weekend if the men in green can replication that result against the French – they will win the 2020 championship regardless of other results.

Garry Ringrose has been ruled out of the remainder of the international window with a facial injury.

Jamison Gibson Park presented with some hamstring tightness post-game so John Cooney has joined the squad to provide additional cover.

Keith Earls is finishing his rehabilitation programme at the IRFU’s HPC and a decision on his availability will be made over the coming days.
