It was November of 2021 when Ciaran Frawley first got the call to join Andy Farrell and his Ireland squad. Close to two years slipped by before he finally made his senior debut off the bench against Italy in a World Cup warm-up. 

The 21 months in between those bookends threw up any number of chapters that might have taken his story in different directions. The most obvious was the opportunity to cut his losses with Ireland and Irish rugby and declare for the Wallabies.
