Two Kildare players, return to training
RUGBY
Andy Farrell says he still has a full deck from which to choose ahead of next week’s test with the Springboks.
Athy's Joey Carbery will train fully with the Ireland squad this week, despite the concern that met his withdrawal from Munster’s defeat to Leinster.
Eadestown's Tadhg Beirne will gradually return to training, as will Jamison Gibson Park and Jacob Stockdale after their respective knocks.
Tadhg Furlong and Peter O'Mahony will also train later this week.
The Ireland head coach says no-one is ruled out just yet:
Connacht say the next phase of redevelopment of The Sportsground is on track to begin next year.
A new indoor High Performance Centre will be built first, which includes an indoor training pitch.
Then work will begin on a new 7,000 capacity North Stand.

Cristiano Ronaldo has returned to training with the Manchester United first team.
The Portugese forward had been working on his own and was dropped for Saturday's 1-1 draw at Chelsea in the Premier League after refusing to come on as a substitute against Tottenham.
Ronaldo is part of the squad for Thursday's Europa League home game against Moldovan side Sheriff Tiraspol.
