Andy Farrell Makes Five Changes For England Clash

Thursday, 19 February 2026 11:22

Offaly's Cormac Izuchukwu and Michael Milne are left out of the squad.

There are five changes to the Ireland team to face England in Saturday's Six Nations clash at Twickenham. 

Andy Farrell has opted for Munster's Jack Crowley at out half - Sam Prendergast drops out of the match day 23.

Crowley will be partnered by the returning Jamison Gibson Park at scrum half.

Tadhg Beirne comes back into the starting 15, replacing Offaly's Cormac Izuchuckwu, along with Tadhg Furlong and Josh van der Flier. 

Athy's Jeremy Loughman keeps his place at loose-head prop. 

There's a 5/3 split on the bench, with Ciaran Frawley, Craig Casey and Tommy O'Brien the backs named among the replacements. 

Caelan Doris will captain the side.
