Chris Cloete and CJ Stander trained today having completed their respective 14-day isolation periods after arriving back in Ireland from South Africa last month.

Cloete and Stander were cleared to access the HPC having undergone PCR testing last week.

The squad will train this week and next week before getting a nine-day break from the HPC.

Speaking last week, Head Coach Johann van Graan said: “We won’t be into full training, scrummaging, lineout, rucking, mauling, full contact until July 27 so it’s important that we build up the players through this phase and make sure we get their bodies right because they haven’t played a game of rugby for a very long time.”
