CHRIS FANNING, Caroline Mahon and Eliza Downey have been added to the Irish replacements.

After defeat to England, the team recovered to overcome Wales 18-3 last weekend and lie third in the table, but victory against the Scots tonight in Ashbourne and a big favour from England against France could see them finish runners-up.
