Leinster out-half Harry Byrne is set to be one of the new faces called up to the Ireland squad ahead of Sunday's Autumn Nations Cup clash against Georgia. Byrne has featured in six of Leinster's seven PRO14 games, including five starts in the number 10 jersey. Farrell is set to shake up his team for the visit of Georgia, who have former Ulster and Ireland out-half David Humphreys working as a high-performance consultant. Elsewhere, Ulster head coach Dan Mc­Farland believes prop Eric O’Sullivan is ready to make the step-up to international level. The prop has yet to feature in any national squad but Ireland are presently lacking in loosehead options.
