The loosehead prop is a worry for the World Cup after suffering injury against Samoa.
Murray Kinsella Reports from Bayonne ANDY FARRELL SAID it’s unclear whether Cian Healy will be available for the World Cup after suffering a worrying-looking injury in Ireland’s 17-13 warm-up win over Samoa in Bayonne.
Farrell will name his final 33-man World Cup squad in Dublin tomorrow but it’s uncertain whether Healy will be able to take his place in it.“He pulled up sharpish, didn’t he? And then he struggled to walk off. It’s his calf, there’s something going on there. Rather than guess, we have to take a picture and see how it goes.”
“Jacob was feeling his hamstring, he felt like he couldn’t go so we took him off,” said Farrell. “It was good for Garry [Ringrose] anyway to get a taste on the wing.“Keith is fine. If it was a World Cup game or a game of importance to us, he would have played. We decided to pull him out and not take any risks with that.“Robbie got a bang on the side of the shin and rolled his ankle, strapped it up, carried on.
“It was difficult conditions and things weren’t always going to go your way, especially against a good side like that.
