Leinster hooker Sean Cronin has more 外見s from the （法廷の）裁判 than anyone in the history of 実験（する） match rugby. His 58 代用品，人 showings in 67 caps is a world 記録，記録的な／記録する that will take some （警官の）巡回区域，受持ち区域ing. At the 熟した old age of 32 then, the 解放する／自由な-running 前線-rower will finally make his 十分な Six Nations debut, with Ireland 残り／休憩（する）ing 船長／主将 Rory Best in Rome. Evergreen Best continues to belie his 36 years with composed 業績／成果s and 手段d stewardship of Joe Schmidt’s 味方する. Cronin’s pacy running and smart ball 扱うing nicely complements Best’s abrasive approach. But both also 誇る ますます 一連の会議、交渉／完成するd games, and this will be Cronin’s biggest chance for some time to 火刑／賭ける his starting （人命などを）奪う，主張するs.

長，率いる coach Schmidt’s 拒絶 to 問題／発行する 一面に覆う／毛布 changes to his line-up to 直面する the struggling Italians 示すs 明確に the 願望（する） for Ireland to play their way 支援する into form. This in truth really せねばならない be a 特別手当-point victory for the Irish, who are still searching for 最高の，を越す gear in the wake of their 32-20 開始-週末 敗北・負かす by England. A patchy 22-13 勝利，勝つ over Scotland in Edinburgh 始める，決める Schmidt’s men 支援する to winning ways but with precious little else. （犯罪の）一味 rusty British and Irish Lions half-支援するs Conor Murray and Johnny Sexton will hugely 高く評価する／（相場などが）上がる the chance to sharpen up ? now they must 掴む that 開始.

Former Ireland 十分な-支援する Conor O’Shea has been in 告発（する），告訴（する）／料金 of Italy since the autumn of 2016. In his third Six Nations （選挙などの）運動をする, the ex-Harlequins boss is yet to pull off a 選手権 victory. Much of O’Shea’s wide-範囲ing remit 回転するs around 開拓するing new 組織／基盤／下部構造s for the growing Italian rugby 始める，決める-up. But the 井戸／弁護士席-尊敬（する）・点d and 遂行するd coach also needs success on the field. The time to 配達する is 急速な／放蕩な approaching, 特に with the World Cup around the corner. O’Shea has spoken several times of 未来 coaches 得るing the 利益s of his work behind the scenes. But he will need more than that to 固く結び付ける an Italian 遺産／遺物 of true 公式文書，認める.
Stand-in 船長／主将 O’Mahony must 扱う 公式の／役人s
Munster’s uncompromising flanker Peter O’Mahony has plenty of captainc y experience, but the gritty loose-今後 remains 傾向がある to the 半端物 一区切り／（ボクシングなどの）試合 of 言葉の venting. Sunday’s 審判（をする） Glen Jackson is の中で the game’s more 手段d and 遂行するd 公式の／役人s. But the former Saracens 飛行機で行く-half will still take no nonsense. 正規の／正選手 captain Best is a master of staying on the 権利 味方する of the 審判（をする）s, and O’Mahony will have to take a leaf out of the Ulster hooker’s 調書をとる／予約する this 週末.
