Ruddock makes changes to get back on track in Scotland

MIKE RUDDOCK’S Ireland U20s will take the field in Inverness tonight (7.30pm) with relative confidence, despite the recent home defeat by high-flying France.

Although the Grand Slam is out of the equation, Ireland are still playing for the championship and Triple Crown and certainly won’t be overawed by a Scotland team already well beaten by both France and Wales.

The Irish team appears stronger than the one beaten by France and certainly there is a view that they can get back to winning ways quickly.
