Tipperary player Dorothy Wall and the Irish rugby team will be hoping to make amends for their defeat by Wales last week when they face France in tomorrow's TikTok Women’s Six Nations game in Cork.
The Fethard woman keeps her place in the team that five changes to the side that suffered a heavy 31-5 defeat in their opening game last Saturday.
Another Tipperary player, Ballina’s Maeve Óg O’Leary, who lined out against Wales, isn’t included in the matchday squad.
Ireland head coach Greg McWilliams says, "Last week was a disappointing start to the campaign for us but we turned the page quickly and were honest with ourselves.
"We know this journey is going to take time and require patience, and we are working hard as a group to learn those lessons and make positive progress every time we step on the field.
"Saturday is another opportunity for us to do that and returning to Musgrave Park is an exciting prospect for us all.
"The support of our home crowd, family and friends is so important to us, and with the backing of the Irish people we can make strides in the right direction".
Tomorrow's match at Musgrave Park starts at 3.15 and will be shown live on Virgin Media One.
