Calvin Nash has been passed fit to start for Ireland against Scotland this Saturday as Andy Farrell named an unchanged team from last weekend’s defeat to England for this Guinness Six Nations finale at Aviva Stadium.

Ireland, with a four-point lead over England going into the fifth and final round, can secure back-to-back championship titles with a victory over the Scots in the middle game of the Super Saturday schedule and head coach Farrell has backed the players who lost narrowly at Twickenham to get them over the line.
