IRELAND WILL NAME their manager for the 2015 International Rules Test tomorrow.
The GAA confirmed earlier this month that it will host Australia for a one-match series in November, and president Aogán Ó Fearghail is now expected to announce a new face to succeed Paul Earley.
The Irish manager has traditionally been appointed on a “home and away” cycle, with Earley taking charge for the last two years.
He narrowly failed to match Colm O’Rourke as the only manager to win both series since the format was rebooted in the late 1990s, racking up a record 101-point win in 2013 before losing by 10 points on aggregate in Australia last year.
As in 2014, Australia have confirmed that they will field a panel made up entirely of All-Australian stars for the return to Croke Park on 21 November.
