Schmidt: Garry Ringrose selection 'a needs-must situation' for Ireland

"Sometimes you don't have the luxury of a plethora of options."

Joe Schmidt has admitted Garry Ringrose was a "needs-must" selection for Ireland's crucial NatWest 6 Nations clash with Scotland.

Ringrose has just an hour's rugby with Leinster under his belt since an ankle problem in January, but must now act as the cure to Ireland's injury-hit midfield.
