Ireland team reaction - Andy Farrell rolls the dice with Mack Hansen

About this episode

On this bonus episode of the Left Wing, Will Slattery is joined by Rúaidhrí O'Connor and Cian Tracey with their reactions to the Ireland team announcement.

Connacht's Mack Hansen will make his debut on the wing against Wales on Saturday in what is a huge call by Ireland head coach Andy Farrell.

Elsewhere, Joey Carbery has fended off Jack Carty's claim to the back-up ten slot, while James Hume will get a chance off the bench after strong form for Ulster.

The lads finish up with predictions, with all three going for a big Ireland win.
