The Ireland squad flew back to Dublin on Sunday night and today the focus is on recovery after a physically tough Test match against Scotland in Murrayfield. Garry Ringrose is doing well today and has returned to Dublin.  He will take no further part in this year’s Championship. Iain Henderson is due to undergo surgery today on a fractured forearm sustained in the first half of yesterday’s game.   The uncapped Ross Molony is added to the squad to provide additional second row cover. Both Dan Sheehan and Ronan Kelleher sustained shoulder injuries against Scotland and both will be managed in camp this week. Ulster’s Tom Stewart has been brought in as cover. Caelan Doris’ hip complaint will also be managed in camp this week. Ireland will take on England on Saturday (KO 5pm) at a sold out Aviva Stadium for the chance to claim the Championship title, the triple crown and a fourth Men’s Six Nations Championship Grand Slam title. Johnny Sexton equalled Ronan O’Gara’s Six Nations Championship all-time points scorer record (557 points) against Scotland and can become the outright top points scorer against England this weekend. Ireland’s final game of the Championships will be broadcast live on VIRGIN and ITV television and RTE and BBCNI radio.
