The Ireland U20 management have confirmed two changes with Munster duo Conor Fitzgerald and Liam Coombes to join the squad at the World Rugby U20 Championship in Georgia

Out half Angus Curtis suffered a concussion in the weekend’s game with Scotland and will be replaced in the squad by sub-Academy and Shannon playmaker Fitzgerald.

Another Munster representative, Colm Hogan, has failed to recover from an ankle injury he picked up in Ireland’s opening game against Italy and his sub-academy college Coombes (Garryowen) has been called up as his replacement.

Ireland will play New Zealand at 12.30pm (Irish time) on Thursday in their final pool game.
