Uncapped Aungier replaces Bealham in Ireland squad
Aungier trained with Ireland during the 2025 Six Nations

Uncapped Connacht prop Jack Aungier has been called into the Ireland squad as a replacement for British and Irish Lions-bound Finlay Bealham.
Dublin-born Aungier, 26, was part of the Emerging Ireland tour to South Africa last year and trained with the senior squad during the 2025 Six Nations.
His Connacht team-mate Bealham was called up to Andy Farrell's Lions squad after Scotland's Zander Ferguson was ruled out with a calf injury.
Tight-head Aungier - who becomes the 12th uncapped player in Paul O'Connell's squad came through the Leinster academy before joining Connacht in 2020. He has made 88 appearances for the western province.
Ireland face Georgia and Portugal in two Tests on 5 and 12 July.
