Joey Carbery has been cleared to take a full part in Ireland training this week after shaking off a shoulder knock.

The Munster out-half came off injured during Munster's 27-13 loss to Leinster in the United Rugby Championship.

However, the IRFU released a positive squad update confirming Carbery was passed fit to train fully with the Ireland squad at Carton House.

The Ireland squad gathered at Carton House yesterday ahead of the upcoming internationals against South Africa, Fiji and Australia.

Carbery's Munster team-mates Tadhg Beirne (abductor) and Peter O’Mahony (neck) will train later this week as well as Leinster's Tadhg Furlong (ankle).

Leinster duo Jamison Gibson-Park and Hugo Keenan, who have yet to feature this season, will be integrated into training along with Jacob Stockdale and Calvin Nash.

Ciarán Frawley has a shoulder complaint which will continue to be monitored.

Josh van der Flier and Craig Casey will continue their rehabilitation from ankle and groin injuries respectively.

Ulster's Robert Baloucoune, James Hume, Rob Herring, Michael Lowry, Stuart McCloskey, Tom O’Toole, Nick Timoney and Kieran Treadwell returned from South Africa on Monday night.

They will be managed over the coming days following the recent gastro issues experienced by the squad that resulted in the postponement of their game against the Cell C Sharks.

Ireland begin their Bank of Ireland Nations Series against world champions the Springboks on November 5th.

Andy Farrell's men will also face tests against Fiji and Australia on November 12th and 19th respectively.
