Georgia’s coach rings 11 changes
Second-rowers Ilia Zedginidze and Mamuka Gorgodze are retained as well as number eight Giorgi Chkhaidze and out-half Merab Kvirikashvili.
Georgia, who tired towards the end of their 33-3 defeat to Los Pumas, will certainly be fresher when they face Eddie O’Sullivan’s side, and look set to mix it in the physical stakes with Ireland’s pack.
