The loose-head prop was left out of the original 33-strong traveling squad having picked up a calf injury but has returned training with Leinster
Cian Healy has been placed on 'super-standby' and will be called into the Ireland squad at the first available opportunity.“The medics and S&C would be in regular contact with Cian and I’m sure other players back home as well to see how they’re fitness levels are," said Ireland team manager Mick Kearney."So I think it’s great to see Cian back training and training well. Possibly later in the tournament if we get an injury Cian would be a great addition if he was fully fit.
Kearney also confirmed the Ireland players involved in the titanic clash with South Africa had come back into camp with a clean bill of health.
