Conor Murray to start against England as Andy Farrell rings the changes 

Ireland head coach Andy Farrell with Conor Murray during the warm-up before the win over Scotland. 

Conor Murray has regained the Ireland number nine jersey to face England in Saturday’s Guinness Six Nations clash with England after Andy Farrell named a much-changed team for the final-round game of the championship.

Murray had missed the France defeat and Italy win due to a hamstring strain and was an unused replacement last Sunday when Ireland notched an away win against Scotland with Jamison Gibson-Park starting at scrum-half for the third game in a row.
