Niamh Briggs acknowledged yesterday it’s unlikely that anyone from the Ireland women’s 7s squad will feature for the 15s team in their forthcoming Six Nations campaign.

Following a bonus point triumph over Italy at Musgrave Park in the third round of last year's Championship, no fewer than seven players moved back to the 7s programme in preparation for an impending leg of the World Series in Langford, Canada.
