Warburton expects to face Ireland

Wales captain Sam Warburton says he is "positive" of recovering from a knee injury in time to face Ireland in the Six Nations on 14 March.


Warburton, 26, suffered a blow to his knee during Saturday's

20-13 victory against France

in Paris.


But the Cardiff Blues open-side flanker has returned to training and is confident of facing Ireland.


"It has got a lot better and I'll be back to see the physios but all the signs are positive," he said.


Like Warburton, fly-half Dan Biggar was injured against France but is expected to return to training this week.
