Garry Ringrose will learn on Thursday if he is able to play any further part in Ireland's Guinness Six Nations title bid after being sent off against Wales.

Ringrose will appear before a independent disciplinary hearing after receiving a 20-minute red card, upgraded from yellow by the bunker review system, for a dangerous tackle on centre Ben Thomas in the round three fixture. Bundee Aki's introduction restored Ireland to numerical parity and the Connacht centre played a major part in Ireland's win.
