DUBLIN (Reuters) - Rob Kearney and Garry Ringrose returned to full training with Ireland on Tuesday, putting themselves in the frame to face New Zealand this weekend in what promises to be a mouthwatering clash between the world's two top-ranked sides.
Their fellow backs Bundee Aki and Kieran Marmion, who picked up ankle injuries in last Saturday’s laboured 28-17 win against Argentina, are also fit - offering some consolation after key players Robbie Henshaw, Conor Murray, and Sean O’Brien were ruled out.
