Sheehan urges Ireland to attack Scotland clash with ‘all guns blazing’
Ireland's Dan Sheehan celebrates scoring their side's fourth try of the game during the Guinness Men's Six Nations match at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin, Ireland, February 1, 2025

IRELAND hooker Dan Sheehan is hungry to regain his starting role following a remarkable comeback from a six-month injury absence.

The 26-year-old celebrated his return to Test rugby by coming off the bench to claim what proved to be the decisive try in last weekend’s 27-22 Six Nations bonus-point win over England.

A week earlier, he touched down twice for Leinster in his first competitive outing since tearing his ACL last summer during Ireland’s drawn series against world champions South Africa.
