Tiernan O'Halloran looks to secure starting spot with Ireland

Twelve months on from his Test debut against South Africa in Johannesburg, Tiernan O'Halloran feels he has grown as a player as he looks to nail down a starting spot with Ireland.

The Connacht full-back won his first cap as a late substitute in a pulsating 32-26 defeat by the Springboks at Ellis Park before Joe Schmidt handed him his first Test start the following week in Port Elizabeth.
