CHARLIE TECTOR, CHAY Mullins and Mark Donnelly have been added to the Emerging Ireland squad for the upcoming tour to South Africa, with Tommy O’Brien among those ruled out.
Leinster’s O’Brien had emerged as a doubt after suffering a hamstring injury in Friday’s opening URC win away to Edinburgh.
Shayne Bolton and Jack Boyle are also unavailable for the Emerging Ireland squad, but Simon Easterby has been able to call on Ireland Sevens back Mullins, Munster prop Donnelly and Leinster man Tector.
