Carbery out, Byrne and Crowley in: Jonny Holland on Ireland's Six Nations selection

On this week's midweek pod recorded in the aftermath of a hugely intriguing Six Nations squad announcement by Ireland, former Munster out-half and current Cork Con head coach Jonny Holland joins Gavan Casey to run the rule over Andy Farrell's big calls.

There were none bigger than that made in Holland's former position: he gives his thoughts on Joey Carbery's form and Ross Byrne's 'fully deserved' call-up, and offers a behind-the-scenes insight into Jack Crowley whom he has coached at Con in recent seasons.

Holland also provides his perspective on Ben Healy's upcoming move to Scotland, which has resulted in his call-up by Gregor Townsend for this year's Six Nations.

Plus, all of the other Ireland-squad talking points: the inclusions of Keith Earls, Jacob Stockdale and Conor Murray; the exclusions of Kieran Treadwell and Nick Timoney; and why Mike Haley might be almost a victim of his own form in the Munster fullback jersey.
