Ireland head coach Andrew Browne has made two changes and a positional switch to the team that beat England for Saturday night’s Under-20 Six Nations game against Wales at Virgin Media Park (7.45pm, Virgin Media Two). Right wing Derry Moloney, who has impressed throughout the campaign, has recovered from an injury that saw him miss out on the training session against the Ireland senior team. Dylan McNeice has recovered from a knee issue that saw him miss the win in Bath and he will be partnered in the secondrow by Garryowen’s Joe Finn, who switches from blindside flanker. There is one other change to the pack with Terenure’s Ben Blaney starting and Billy Hayes moving to the replacements. Lee Fitzpatrick has recovered from the injury that forced him to retire in the first half of the England game.
