Ireland head-coach Andy Farrell has added John Cooney and Harry Byrne to his squad ahead of tomorrow's Six Nations game against France.
Both have been drafted in as cover after Conor Murray and Johnny Sexton were ruled out of the clash with Les Blues.
21-year-old Byrne is uncapped while Cooney hasn't played for Ireland since last year's defeat to England in the Six Nations.

It was confirmed on Friday that first-choice half-back pairing Murray and Sexton would both miss the France game, Murray having picked up a hamstring injury in training with the latter failing to recover in time after suffering a head injury against Wales.
James Ryan, likewise, failed to come through the HIA return-to-play protocols.
