Friend praises Farrell's call on Jack Carty

Connacht Head Coach Andy Friend.

Connacht coach Andy Friend praised the Irish management's call to release Jack Carty to play in last weekend’s clash against Scarlets as the out-half is now fired-up if called upon against Italy on Sunday.

Carty’s international exile after almost two and a half years ended in Paris though he only got 90 seconds off the bench in the Stade de France.
