Munster second-row Edwin Edogbo is in line to make his Ireland debut in Saturday’s Six Nations clash with Italy at the Aviva Stadium (2.10), as head coach Andy Farrell gets set to ring the changes following last week’s disappointing defeat to France.
Having resisted the temptation to hand Edogbo his first cap in Paris, Farrell is now primed to unleash the powerful 127kg Cobh native against Italy, most likely off the bench.
