Ireland coach Joe Schmidt has made a whopping 13 changes for Sunday's Test with Georgia at the Aviva Stadium.

There are two new caps. Munster's Dave Foley makes his first appearance in the second row, while Leinster's Dominic Ryan makes up the back row alongside Tommy O'Donnell and Robbie Diack.

Mike Ross is the only member of the pack to keep his place. The Leinster prop is joined in the front row by Dave Kilcoyne and Richardt Strauss.

Simon Zebo is the other survivor from the win over the Springboks, with the other wing manned by Ulster's Craig Gilroy.

Gordon D'Arcy is back in the centre where he will be partnered by Darren Cave.

Ian Madigan starts at out half in place of Johnny Sexton, with Eoghan Reddan captaining the side from scrum half.

Ireland team: F Jones (Munster); C Gilroy (Ulster), D Cave (Ulster), G D’Arcy (Leinster), S Zebo (Munster); I Madigan (Leinster), E Reddan (Leinster); D Kilcoyne (Munster), R Strauss (Leinster), M Ross (Leinster); D Foley (Munster), M McCarthy (Leinster); Dominic Ryan (Leinster), T O’Donnell (Munster), R Diack (Ulster).

Meanwhile, Kurtley Beale is in line to face Ireland next week at the Aviva.

The talented utility back has been absent from the Wallabies set up since becoming embroiled in a text message scandal that ultimately cost previous coach Ewen McKenzie his job.

Beale, along with back row Jake Schatz will meet up with the Australia squad in France this weekend, with a view to facing Ireland.
