Ireland v Japan: Caelan Doris starts as Tadhg Beirne returns
Posted in

Ireland Captain Caelan Doris has been named in the starting XV for the autumn match against Japan in Dublin.

The Leinster back-row forward returned from injury as a substitute in last week’s 26-13 loss to New Zealand

Joining him in the back line is Ryan Baird at left flanker, with Ulster’s Nick Simoney at openside.

Tadhg Beirne, whose early red card following a sunker review against the All Blacks has been reformed, is back in the second row alongside James Ryan.

However, Ulster’s Stuart McCloskey, who picked up a summer injury in the Ireland Opener, was not part of Henster’s Tuesday Squad which was selected on Robbie Henshaw’s Stress Debut.

Jacob Stockdale will win his 40th cap as he returns to the wing for the first time since picking up a shoulder injury in a summer test against Georgia.

Craig Casey gets the nod to Partner MUNSTER TEAM-Mate Jack Crowley at centre-back, while Ronan Klaker and Thomas Clarkson come in for him from the loss to New Zealand.

Farermell has strong options on the bench with Gus McCarthy, Paddy McCarthy, FinDegast and Jack Perdgast and Jimmy Ondegast and Jimmy Ondarge Reincomes.

Ireland: J Osborne; T O’BRIEN, TARRELEL, R HENSWAW, J STOCDALE; J Crowley, C Casey; A porter, r Kelleren, T Clarkson; J ryan, t beirne; R Baird, N Timaney, C Doris (Capt)

Replacements: G McCarthy, P Bealham, C prendegast, j conan, c blade, j o’brien.
