Sam Prendergast has been given the all-clear to start for Ireland against Argentina in the Nations Championship encounter at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin on Friday, following his recovery from a wrist complaint.
The out-half's fitness clearance comes as Ireland's coaching staff have opted to make six alterations to their matchday lineup for the fixture. The changes reflect both injury management and strategic selection as the side prepares to face the visiting Pumas.
Prendergast's availability strengthens Ireland's attacking setup against an Argentina side that has been competitive in the Nations Championship campaign. His inclusion suggests the injury was not as significant as initially feared, allowing the player to feature in the weekend's international rugby fixture.
The six changes across the squad indicate Ireland's intention to balance squad rotation with maintaining competitive depth as the Nations Championship progresses. Friday's encounter represents a key fixture in Ireland's campaign in the competition.
