Jamison Gibson-Park admits that making way for Craig Casey in Ireland’s starting team against Italy has lit a fire in him as Andy Farrell’s men look ahead to their Six Nations assignment away to England this weekend.

Casey got the nod for the round two clash as one of six changes to the team that had played so poorly and lost so convincingly to France in the opener in Paris.
