Brian O'Driscoll and Peter O'Mahony are the only injury worries in the aftermath of Ireland's narrow defeat to England at Twickenham on Saturday.

O'Mahony has a hamstring strain while O'Driscoll had some calf cramping towards the end the match.

But management say he has been very focused on his recovery and will be further assessed over the coming week.

The match day squad will assemble on Wednesday for a two day camp in Belfast this week ahead of the next match home to Italy on Saturday week.

It was not all bad news for the Irish over the weekend who have moved up one place to fifth in the IRB World rankings.
