TQL Rugby & Pat McCarry – Ireland team selection – Mack Hansen returns, Sean Jansen’s first home game and and Sam Prendergast back from injury

#rugby #rugbyunion #nationschampionship
 
In a rare act of spontaneity, myself and Pat McCarry sat down to discuss Andy Farrell’s team selection for the upcoming Nations Championship match between Ireland and Argentina!
 
After messaging the night before, Pat understood that Sean Jansen was due to make the team sheet this week and instead of simply crediting him for this information it made more sense to get him on the show and discuss this as well as the wider selection in person.
 
Andy has gone for a beefy selection with Andrew Porter, Dan Sheehan and Tadhg Furlong in the front row and a 5/3 split on the bench.
 
Undoubtably Pat thinks this selection will have been made with one eye on the upcoming rematch with the Springboks and the other eye on the World Cup next year.
 
We discuss the starting players that leapt out to us, Sean Jansen’s third cap and first home game along with the welcome return of Sam Prendergast at fly-half!
 
Big thanks to Pat for the last-minute call up! You can find Pat at @dirttrackersrugby across Instagram and X.
