As Ireland faces a back-three injury crisis ahead of the Six Nations, some players have an opportunity to step into the spotlight and make their mark. Mack Hansen and Jimmy O’Brien are set to miss the tournament, while James Lowe is returning from injury. This opens the door for emerging talents to shine in Andy Farrell’s plans.
Calvin Nash
Consistent performances for Munster have propelled Calvin Nash into contention. With a single cap from the World Cup warm-up against Italy, Nash’s form and scoring abilities make him a viable option. His contributions to Munster’s recent URC victory showcase his potential impact on the international stage.
Robert Baloucoune
Known for his exceptional speed, Robert Baloucoune aims to overcome past injuries and secure a spot in Farrell’s plans. His try-scoring ability and improved defensive skills with a 91% tackle success rate highlight his potential. Baloucoune, with four caps to his name, is eager to make a lasting impact.
Jordan Larmour
Jordan Larmour, a former Grand Slam winner, is looking to rediscover his best form. Operating on either wing or at full-back, Larmour’s versatility adds to his appeal. Despite a hiatus from international play since 2021, his recent performances with Leinster indicate a resurgence.
As the Nations approaches, the injury challenges provide a platform for emerging talents to showcase their abilities and contribute to Ireland’s campaign.
