Out.
Ireland have been dealt a late injury blow ahead of today’s Guinness Six Nations clash with England at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin.
Ulster outhalf Billy Burns has been forced to withdraw from the squad with an injury.
Burns was due to provide cover for captain Johnny Sexton off the bench.
He has now been replaced by Leinster ten Ross Byrne.
Unfortunately Billy Burns has been ruled out of today’s game through injury, with Ross Byrne promoted to the Ireland bench.#ShoulderToShoulder #IrishRugby #GuinnessSixNations #IREvENG pic.twitter.com/WCabmAjOoU
