We are underway in Parc Eirias with Ireland U20 taking on Wales U20 in the final game

A very good evening from Eirias Stadium, Colwyn Bay. Its the 15th of March and we have a very special date between these two sides. Its Wales who host Ireland in the 5th round of the U20 6 Nations. Ireland still remain unbeaten and will look to continue their fine form.

Why change a winning formula? That’s the mantra that has informed Noel McNamara’s team selection for Ireland’s crunch fixture against Wales as he makes just one alteration to the XV that downed France.

Harry Byrne returns at fly-half after recovering from a hip flexor injury that ruled him out in Round Four.

But it is up front that Ireland will pose the danger, having built their Championship-winning form on a pack that has been unchanged throughout.

And for McNamara, the spectre of the Grand Slam is certainly not something to be baulked at.
