Clíodhna Moloney, Niamh O’Dowd, **Sadhbh McGrath**, **Fiona Tuite** and Shannon Ikahihifo provide the replacements up front, with Aoife Dalton, Molly Scuffil-McCabe and the uncapped Heffernan completing the Match Day 23. Commenting on the selection, the Ireland Head Coach said, *“Last week was tough but we’ve seen great bounce back in training. This weekend, the 6N reaches its climax and with some good performances, we’re in a position to compete for that World Cup qualification.”* *We’re excited to bring Scotland to Belfast and a quality Kingspan Stadium. It’ll be a large and enthusiastic crowd. We’re looking forward to them revving up the atmosphere to really drive the home advantage.* *With lots of permutations possible, we’ll focus on bringing the ‘best of us’ to go after that winning performance.”* Saturday’s match is live on RTE2 with live updates on the Irish Rugby Twitter and Instagram channels. #### **Ireland Team (v Scotland Saturday 27 April, Kingspan Stadium, kick off 2.30pm)** 15\.
