Read our privacy policy Ireland prop Tadhg Furlong is on track to be available for Saturday’s match against Fiji but Ryan Baird has been ruled out due to concussion. “He’s excited to be in and around the team, and we are excited as well.” Ireland held on for an unconvincing victory over Los Pumas to bounce back from a 23-13 loss to New Zealand seven days earlier. With resurgent Australia due at Aviva Stadium on November 30, head coach Farrell may make changes for the meeting with Fiji, who were beaten 35-17 on their last visit to Dublin, in 2022. “I think it’s important that we are doing right by everyone in our side, continuing to look for a performance,” Fogarty said of team selection.
