Craig Casey is in contention for a place in Andy Farrell's matchday 23 this weekend against the Italians.

Casey has won four caps for Ireland so far. Image: Billy Stickland/INPHO Casey has won four caps for Ireland so far. Image: Billy Stickland/INPHO THIS SUNDAY IS exactly one year since Craig Casey made his Ireland debut against Italy and he’s hoping to add cap number five the day before, with the same opposition in Dublin for another Six Nations clash.

The Limerick man feels far more at home in Ireland camp these days and also feels like he has developed as a player. “But the lads in Munster were great, they were texting me when we were coming back in on the Sunday, sending on the game plan, the sheets and stuff like that, the plays.“So it was easy to fit back in. Training went well. You’re obviously trying to implement some things that you’ve learned up in camp into your game but into the lads’ games around you as well so you can fit in with them.

Now Casey is hopeful of getting another chance in the green jersey as he looks to put pressure on the established pair of Gibson-Park and Murray.
