All aboard.
Following their final warm-up game against Wales on Saturday, Ireland will fly out to Japan for the 2019 Rugby World Cup this Wednesday.
The squad is unchanged from that named last Monday as all players have been declared fit to travel, with the likes of Keith Earls and Cian Healy initially thought to be doubtful after Saturday’s win.
