Ireland prop Cian Healy is in line to equal Brian O'Driscoll's cap record after being named on the bench for Friday night's match against Argentina in Dublin. Healy, 37, will match O'Driscoll's haul of 133 appearances for his country if he takes to the field against the Pumas, a game in which Ireland will be aiming to bounce back from last week's 23-13 loss to New Zealand.
'For Cian, on the other end of the career spectrum, it will be an incredible moment for him, his family and friends to reach Brian O'Driscoll's 133-cap landmark. 'We'll pay tribute to Cian again, but he is a legend of the game in Ireland and his influence among his team-mates, past and present, transcends his many successes on the field. It promises to be a special night.' Ireland captain Caelan Doris told Virgin Media: 'It's been a tricky few days.
