D'Arcy out for the 6 nations, time to bring Luke Marshall in at 12? He offers a big boot, good physicality, great pass and a good breaking threat.
Edit: Irish media reporting that the backline in training this week was:
Murray
Rog
Earls BOD
McFadden Kearney Gilroy
If that is the line up I'll be backing Scotland to get one over on us.
Unless Declan has a Road to Damascus moment this late in the day, that looks like what he'd go with. Play someone out of position rather than evolve. Earls looked dangerous when he came on for Zebo. Let the lad do what he does best.
And how solid is BOB's ankle?
