A big call on the left wing and at openside flanker.
Andy Farrell is giving Test debuts to Hugo Keenan and Will Connors in a fresh-looking Ireland team to face Italy, this Saturday.
Leinster's Hugo Keenan has been named on the left wing, with Jacob Stockdale slotting in at fullback and Andrew Conway on the right wing. Keenan is uncapped at Test level but has been in top form for Leinster over the past 18 months.
Will Connors is named in a new-look back row with Caelan Doris at blindside and CJ Stander at No.8. Tadhg Beirne and James Ryan are in the second row while Rob Herring gets the start at hooker.
In the backline, Conor Murray and Johnny Sexton are the half backs while Bundee Aki and Garry Ringrose start in midfeld.
Interestingly, Connacht's Dave Heffernan beats Ronan Kelleher to replacement hooker while the uncapped Leinster duo Ed Byrne and Jamison Gibson Park on the bench too.
