O’Donoghue Called Into Ireland Squad

Ireland Head Coach Joe Schmidt has named his squad for Rounds 5 & 6 of the RBS 6 Nations and includes back-rower Jack O’Donoghue as one of eight Munster representatives in his 35 man squad.

Having graduated from the Greencore Munster Academy last summer, in this his first season with the senior squad, O’Donoghue has already made 20 appearances including every European game.
 
After previously representing Ireland U18 Clubs, Ireland U19s and captaining Ireland U20s at the 2014 Junior World Cup in New Zealand, the Waterford native has now been included in his first Ireland senior squad at 22 years of age.
 
Joining O’Donoghue in the Ireland training squad are Dave Foley, Tommy O’Donnell, Donnacha Ryan, CJ Stander, Keith Earls, Conor Murray and Simon Zebo.
