DUBLIN (Reuters) - Ireland back Joey Carbery broke his arm playing for Ireland against Fiji in Dublin on Saturday and will be out for "the foreseeable future", according to coach Joe Schmidt.

Carbery, 22, suffered a fracture on his left forearm after being tackled by Fijian prop Peni Ravai on the hour mark of a game the Irish narrowly won 23-20 in the second of their three-test November schedule.
