Ireland women's coach Adam Griggs has announced a 36-strong panel for the final two games of the Six Nations against Italy and France.

Ireland host Italy on 24 October before finishing away to France a week later.

"We're picking up where we left off over five months ago - we've a busy few months ahead and look forward to playing rugby again," said Griggs.

He added: "At the outset of this year's tournament we had clear priorities set.

"Our aim was to win our three home games and play competitively in our two away games and we felt like we were in a good place before the postponement of the tournament.

"We have stayed connected as a team who trained remotely throughout the lockdown. We have a number of training dates in the schedule ahead of the tournament and it will be good to get together."
