There is one personnel change and one positional switch in the starting Ireland U20 team to play Scotland U20 in Falkirk from the side that beat England 13-6 in Dubarry Park.

Sean O’Brien suffered a recurrence of his hamstring injury in the England game, which forced him from the field in Athlone, and his position at number eight has been taken by captain David Pollock, who moves from the openside.

Kevin Sheahan, who was named in the replacements for the French game, comes back into the squad and straight into the team to take the number-seven jersey.

Tommy O’Donnell, who came on against England to replace Sean O’Brien, is also ruled out due to a thumb injury and Eoghan Grace comes into the replacements.
