Andy Farrell’s training squad to be announced on Tuesday and to begin World Cup preparations in three weeks
Ireland head coach Andy Farrell will name his training squad for the upcoming Rugby World Cup on Tuesday afternoon. Photograph: Dan Sheridan/InphoThe dust has barely settled on a memorable 2022-23 season, with Munster still in celebratory mode, than the 2023 World Cup will loom into view. By midafternoon on Tuesday, Andy Farrell’s expanded training squad of circa 43 players, with a maximum of 45, for the pre-tournament preparations which begin on June 18th, will be unveiled.
Given Farrell and his assistants named a 37-man squad for the Six Nations and added another 11 players during the course of that Grand Slam campaign, some seriously good players are going to receive some disappointing news. Presuming there will be the same number of locks, then in addition to James Ryan, Tadhg Beirne, Iain Henderson and Ryan Baird, Joe McCarthy looks sure to be included given only injuries have limited his exposure with Leinster and Ireland to date, and likewise Kieran Treadwell.Farrell and co have also been fairly clearcut in their choices of backrowers.
