Sean O Brien is back in the green of Ireland after being named in Joe Schmidt’s side to face France on Saturday.

Rob Kearney replaces Simon Zebo in the Irish team to take on France in Paris this Saturday.

Zebo is not in the squad as Dave Kearney takes over from Keith Earls on the wing while Sean O’Brien replaces Tommy O’Donnell in the back row.

The team in full is Rob Kearney at full back with Trimble and Dave Kearney on the wings.

Jared Payne and Robbie Henshaw stay in the centre while Jonathan Sexton is fit and starts at out half with Conor Murray at scrum half .

McGrath, Best and White are the front row once again while Mike Mc Carthy and Devin Toner are an unchanged second row.

In the back row it’s Stander, O’Brien and Heaslip.

On the bench it’s Richard Strauss, James Cronin, Tadhg Furlong, Donnacha Ryan, Tommy O’Donnell, Eoin Reddan, Ian Madigan and Fergus Mc Fadden.

Mc Fadden had been named in Leinsters squad for their clash with Zebre however that has now changed.

Injury returnees’ Mike Ross and Cian Healy won’t be part of the plans as they’ve both been named in the Leinster team for tomorrows Pro 12 meeting with Zebre at the RDS.

Despite a good performance off the bench against Wales last week Sean Cronin is excluded from the Irish squad and is on the bench for Leinster.

France Coach Guy Noves has made six changes to his team.
