Fitzgerald out for upto six months!
Luke Fitzgerald will be out for four to six months after rupturing a knee ligament in Ireland’s 20-20 draw with Australia. Fitzgerald will require surgery and intensive rehabilitation in that time.
Seven other changes have been made for the Fiji game since that nail-biting draw, with Jonathan Sexton ready to make his debut. Horgan, Reddan and D’Arcy come in from the Leinster backline with winger Keith Earls.
Leo Cullen, Australian born Tom Court and Denis Leamy will join the pack.
