Tadhg Beirne is in line to start for Ireland in Saturday’s Six Nations finale against Wales, with a knee injury ruling Iain Henderson out of the trip to Cardiff. The introduction of Beirne is likely to be one of three changes made by Joe Schmidt,, with Seán O’Brien set to return to the fold after being left out of the victory over France. Rob Kearney missed that game through injury and should return at fullback ahead of Jordan Larmour.
