He will undergo a rehabilitation programme and the injury will be reassessed next week. Ireland coach Eddie O'Sullivan had already added Wasps scrum-half Eoin Reddan to the training squad ahead of Saturday's clash against Scotland at Murrayfield and he is due to announce the starting line-up tomorrow. Reddan is among 10 players called up for training, joining Geordan Murphy, Tommy Bowe, Barry Murphy, Rob Kearney, Frankie Sheahan, Bryan Young, Stephen Ferris, Jamie Heaslip and Trevor Hogan. An Ireland victory over Scotland would see them clinch a second successive Triple Crown. |
