Joe Schmidt makes one change for Grand Slam decider

Joe Schmidt has made just one change ahead of the Grand Slam showdown against England on St Patrick’s Day.

Lock Iain Henderson is the only change with the Ulster second row coming in for Devin Toner, who drops to the bench, as boss Joe Schmidt opted to keep changes to a minimum.

The Munster quartet of CJ Stander, Peter O’Mahony, Conor Murray and Keith Earls have all retained their places from the Championship winning game against Scotland last week.

Kick off in Twickenham is 2.45pm
