Jack Crowley Starts for Ireland Against Italy in Six Nations Finale

Jack Crowley has been named to start at out-half for Ireland in their final Six Nations match against Italy on Saturday, following four rounds on the bench. Interim coach Simon Easterby has made several changes to the starting lineup, aiming to conclude the championship on a high note after a recent loss to France. Crowley replaces Sam Prendergast, and Tadhg Furlong is set to return from injury as a substitute. Veteran players Peter O’Mahony and Conor Murray will feature off the bench, while Cian Healy has been omitted from the matchday squad altogether. Ireland's performance in Rome holds significance, as they still have a slim chance of clinching the title depending on the outcome of other matches. The match will kick off at 2:15 PM Irish time and is expected to be a competitive encounter against Italy.
