DUBLIN (Reuters) - Centre Robbie Henshaw will miss Ireland's final November test series game against Argentina on Saturday with a hamstring injury, allowing Munster's Chris Farrell to keep his place after making his debut in last week's win over Fiji.

Coach Joe Schmidt turned mostly to the side that produced a record 38-3 win over South Africa two weeks ago as Ireland go for a November clean sweep.
