Mack Hansen 1 of 3 Ireland players ruled out as Farrell calls up duo

Ireland have added Munster’s uncapped centre Tom Farrell and Leinster’s Jimmy O’Brien to their squad ahead of the Gallagher Cup clash with New Zealand and the upcoming Quilter Nations Series.

Connacht wing Mack Hansen has been ruled out after aggravating a foot injury in the closing stages of his province’s defeat to the Bulls.

Hansen injured himself scoring a try in the final play of Connacht’s loss to the South African URC side at the Sports Ground on Friday night.

There are also two Munster players ruled out after their bruising win over Leinster at Croke Park.

Forwards Edwin Edogdo (concussion) and Brian Gleeson (elbow) have also been withdrawn, having initially been due to travel with the squad to Chicago for the opening Test of the series.

Meanwhile, Bundee Aki (hip) and Robbie Henshaw (groin) will continue to be assessed but are expected to travel with the squad on Tuesday.

No further additions have been made to Andy Farrell’s 33-man group.
