Shane Daly waited a long time for the invitation back into a national team camp but the Munster back feels he will be a more complete player than his previous experiences when he starts for Ireland A against their English counterparts at Bristol’s Ashton Gate on Sunday afternoon (1pm).

The 28-year-old has worn green for Ireland Under-20, Emerging Ireland and Ireland A in the past and has two Test appearances to his name after being capped by Andy Farrell against Georgia in November 2020 and Japan the following summer.
