Gordon D'Arcy will line out against Scots

Gordon D'Arcy has been cleared to play against Scotland in Saturday's RBS 6 Nations clash.
The centre was a doubt for the game after being forced off early in last week's victory over Wales with a heavy leg bruise.
But he was named in the side to face Andy Robinson's Scotland on Tuesday and trained fully yesterday.
Head coach Declan Kidney today confirmed D'Arcy has been given the green light to face the Scots.
He said: 'Gordon is fit. He trained yesterday and again this morning so he's ready to play.'
D'Arcy will line up alongside captain Brian O'Driscoll for the fifth and final time this championship in Ireland's last match at Croke Park.
The 30-year-old has re-established himself as first choice at inside centre following a year-long rivalry with Paddy Wallace, who was on standby to replace him tomorrow.
