Ireland rugby: Key questions as head coach Andy Farrell prepares to name Nations Championship squad

Ireland head coach Andy Farrell is set to name his squad on Wednesday for the upcoming Nations Championship home leg, which features matches against Argentina, Fiji, and the back-to-back world champions. Key selection debates include the fly-half position, with Ciaran Frawley in contention, and the availability of winger Mack Hansen following an injury-hit 2025-26 season. The squad announcement comes with less than a year remaining until the 2027 Rugby World Cup, making selection decisions particularly significant.
