Johnny Sexton has declared himself to be more than comfortable with the competition for the Ireland No.10 jersey while declaring himself fit and ready for Ireland's Six Nations tie with Italy this Sunday.

The Leinster veteran missed out on the defeat to France two weekends ago after suffering a minor hamstring injury training but confirmed that he is “good to go” now having returned to training at the back end of last week.
