Frawley and Nash 'on track' for Scotland showdown

Ciaran Frawley and Calvin Nash could be available to face Scotland in Saturday's final game

Ireland assistant coach Simon Easterby says Ciaran Frawley and Calvin Nash are set to be fit for Saturday's crunch Six Nations game against Scotland.

Ireland need to avoid defeat in Dublin to retain the Six Nations title.

"Both are on track to play - no-one is ruled out yet," said Easterby on Tuesday.

"Obviously Nashy and Frawls have to go through the process and make sure they don't have symptoms, if they did that might put them back a day."

"No-one else sat out training bar the two boys."

England's last-gasp victory at Twickenham ended Ireland's hopes of back-to-back Grand Slams but they are still firm favourites to win the championship in Saturday's final round of games.

Ireland sit four points clear of England, who take on France in Lyon later on Saturday.

England will clinch the title if they win with a bonus point and Ireland fail to collect a point while Scotland still have a mathematical chance of topping the standings despite coming off a shock defeat by Italy.

Scotland need to win with a bonus point, deny Ireland a point and overturn Ireland's huge points difference advantage to have any chance.

They then need France to beat England without a bonus point or with a bonus-point win by a smaller margin.
