The Leinster prop has finally recovered from the neck surgery that has prevented him from playing during Ireland's warm-up series.

In a further boost, Conor Murray and Rob Kearney both trained today following their recent injury set-backs.

Murray has passed the return-to-play protocols for a concussion injury, while Kearney's bruised knee has also been cleared.

Hooker Rory Best says that the match-up against Canada is now at the forefront of all the players' minds
