Ireland hopeful over Reddan - Foley and Murray to be assessed

Ireland chiefs remain hopeful Eoin Reddan will beat his medial knee ligament strain in time to face Italy in the Six Nations opener in Rome.

The Leinster scrum-half damaged his knee in Saturday’s 20-20 Champions Cup draw with Wasps, and now faces a race against time to be ready to take on Italy on Saturday, February 7.
